In a mass email to UI faculty, staff, and students, Green reminds everyone:
"As the first home football game approaches, along with multiple wins, we are also planning for a safe and enjoyable football season for all. Last year we experienced a rare occurrence with the evacuation of Kinnick Stadium due to a severe thunderstorm. Hopefully, we will never have to experience another evacuation at Kinnick. Because there are no guarantees, we want to share our Kinnick emergency exiting strategy with everyone. We have prepared a short power point to acquaint the public with our emergency exit plan for Kinnick Stadium."
To view the power point, visit police.uiowa.edu/assets/Uploads/KINNICK-EMERGENCY-EVACUATION.pdf .
"While we hope there will be no need to use the plan, it is important for everyone to be aware of their closest exit if the need should arise," Green says.
