No, those weren't voices in your head
The new speakers on top of the blue phones near the Yale Law School, Commons, Silliman and Timothy Dwight colleges and the Becton Center all started broadcasting a test alert message about 1 p.m. this afternoon. A Yale Police Department dispatcher, who at first did not know what was going on, later said the alert was a test by the fire marshal. "They overlooked telling anybody," the dispatcher said. The speakers were installed over the summer to alert the University community of an emergency.
