Browsing: Baylor alerts

A former Baylor student was arrested after a kidnapping report made in October was determined to be unfounded.

“Waco PD received an active threat call on the Baylor Campus just after 9:30 a.m.,” Cierra Shipley, Waco PD spokesperson, said via email. “Waco PD and Baylor PD responded, determining the call was a hoax and there was no active threat on campus.”

Some of the student body were less than pleased with the way alerts were sent. While there may have been some inconsistencies, it is important to understand the Baylor alert process from the first mention of possible bad weather to when we get those alerts to our electronic devices.
