On Tuesday, July 15, and Thursday, July 17, the University of Oregon Police Department will conduct training exercises in Hamilton Hall, at the corner of East 13th Avenue and Agate Street on the Eugene campus. People in this area who see police activity and emergency response should not be concerned or compelled to notify authorities. The activity is expected and part of a planned event.

Training exercises will occur inside Hamilton Hall from 8 a.m. to noon. Police may be seen entering and exiting the building. Some loud noises may be heard outside the building as police officers train on dynamic entry. Signs will be posted outside and on doors around the training area.

These exercises are an important part of community preparedness. Anyone with questions regarding this training may contact the UOPD non-emergency phone line at 541-346-2919.
