A simulated victim heads to a treatment center during the 14th annual Disaster Day at Disaster City in College Station on Friday, Feb. 25, 2022.More than 750 Texas A&M University students got a lesson in disaster preparation during an annual Disaster Day simulation.

Participants included students from the Texas A&M College of Medicine, College of Nursing, Irma Lerma Rangel College of Pharmacy, School of Public Health, College of Veterinary Medicine & Biomedical Sciences, athletic training, psychology and the Corps of Cadets, as well as agencies such as the Texas Department of Emergency Management, Texas State Guard and the American Red Cross.
