Resolved Incident at UW-Green Bay Sheboygan Campus

Dear Faculty and Staff,

The UW-Green Bay Sheboygan Campus was evacuated early this afternoon following a bomb threat called in to the Sheboygan Police Department. A search was conducted across the entire campus and thankfully, nothing of concern was located. We are grateful that everyone is safe and thank the Sheboygan campus community for responding to the threat safely and with respect for everyone on campus, including local law enforcement.

The safety and security of everyone on each of our campuses is a University priority. Today’s event reminds us of the importance of taking care of each other and being prepared. We recognize that with the threat on the Sheboygan campus today, faculty and staff members may be dealing with a great amount of stress and emotion. I encourage you to utilize our available University resources.

The University of Wisconsin-Green Bay’s Employee Assistance Program is a free, confidential service which can provide support for both personal and work-related concerns. The EAP may also assist with legal/financial situations or help with work-life balance. Employees have access to confidential, completely private, 24-hour, 7-days-a-week counseling and online services. Attached is a Critical Incident Tip Sheet that may be a helpful reference.

In light of today’s event, we also ask that you please become familiar with the University’s bomb threat protocol.

We take this incident seriously and appreciate everyone looking out for our Phoenix family.

Best,
Michael Alexander
