Campus officials will conduct a second fall semester ²ÊÃñ±¦µä Alerts test at 12:20 p.m. on Thursday, Nov. 12. The testing, required by a federal law known asÌý, involves checking theÌýability to send text messages, emails, social media posts, computer desktop alerts and website announcements.
- Before the test, students, faculty and staff members should check their accounts to make sure theirÌýcontact information isÌýup to date.
- Any campus affiliate with a university email account (@colorado.edu) can check or enter their information through theÌý portal.
- ²ÊÃñ±¦µä partners with either @cu.edu, @cufund.org, @cusys.edu, or @ucdenver.edu email domains must register and maintain their information on the ²ÊÃñ±¦µä .
Campus affiliates who are not a student, faculty or staff member and do not have one of the emails domains listed above can work with the ²ÊÃñ±¦µä Alert administrator to ensure registration. Email the IT Service Center or call 303-735-HELP(4357).
IfÌýthere is a true campus threat to personal safety, or a campus closure, a campus alert will be sent using one or all of the communication methods available. Text messaging is the preferred method of the system since this mode reaches the most individuals in the least amount of time.
After the scheduled test, if you feel that you should have received an alert and didn’t, or if you need help signing up for the system, email the IT Service Center.
If you have questions regarding emergency management at ²ÊÃñ±¦µä, visit the website or email the team.
