MUSC Great Southeast Shake Out

At 10:18 a.m. on October 18, 2012, MUSC will join millions of Southeasterners in practicing  DROP, COVER, and HOLD ON.  Once the ground starts shaking, you will only have seconds to protect yourself.   Do you know exactly what to do?   Your quake-safe solution should not involve a doorway, a triangle or running.   Preparedness efforts now will help prevent loss of life in case of an earthquake.  The good news is we have resources and guidance to help you prepare for the next big one!
