Subject:  	Emergency Web Alert System Test

On Tuesday, September 2, 2008, campus will begin to conduct a series of 
tests of the Emergency Web Alert System (EWAS). The System allows an 
emergency message to be posted on all participating campus Web pages. By 
campus policy, the system will be activated only under significant and 
imminent threat of death, great bodily injury, or significant property 
damage.

The EWAS tests will be conducted in conjunction with the monthly siren 
alert system testing. During the testing period (which will last 
approximately 10 minutes), you may see a test message appear on Web pages 
within the uiuc.edu and illinois.edu domains. The message will appear only 
as pages are refreshed or when you navigate from page to page.

The full testing schedule is as follows:

Tuesday, September 2, 2008 - 10 a.m.
Tuesday, October 7, 2008 - 10 a.m.
Tuesday, November 4, 2008 - 10 a.m.
Annual testing to be scheduled
