UF has a disaster preparedness page
the disasters include response to "attacks by flesh eating, apparently life impaired individuals"

UF officials remove zombie plan from site:

GAINESVILLE, Fla. — The University of Florida’s response plans for a zombie apocalypse are no longer available for public consumption.

UF spokesman Steve Orlando said today the university removed a link to a disaster recovery exercise, which detailed how the school could respond to an outbreak of the undead. The link was taken down late Thursday afternoon.

Orlando says officials felt the joke ‘‘didn’t really belong’’ on the site, which also included plans for dealing with hurricanes and pandemics.

The exercise lays out the university’s response to attacks by ‘‘flesh-eating, apparently life impaired individuals.’’ It notes that a zombie outbreak might include ‘‘documentation of lots of strange moaning.’’

Orlando says the employee who wrote the gag wasn’t punished.
