UVU Participating in Full-Scale Community Bomb Threat Exercise

On Tuesday, June 17, 2025, at 9:30 am, Utah Valley University (UVU) will participate in a full-scale community bomb exercise at the UCCU Center. The entire exercise will take place from 8 am-1 pm.

Several first responder organizations will be involved and on campus, including emergency medical services (EMS), police, bomb squad, hospitals, Life Flight, a SWAT team, and a special response team. The exercise will take five hours and will be conducted entirely in the UCCU Center. There will be several response vehicles near the UCCU Center, including a landing zone for a helicopter.  

Several parking lots will be partially or entirely closed down. The lots include a portion of L9, L14, L3, and L4 (employee parking.) Please plan accordingly.

Thank you for your cooperation as UVU Emergency Management works to make a more prepared and safe campus and community.
