Subject: Test of Emergency Notification System 9/14/2010
University Community,
*** There will be a test of the Illini-Alert emergency notification
system on September 14th, 2010 at 10:00 AM.
*** Please sign-up to receive Illini-Alert text messages at
https://emergency.illinois.edu
*** You do not need to sign up to receive Illini-Alert emails to your
Illinois.edu email address. This is done automatically for you.
Welcome back to campus! As part of our ongoing commitment to provide
timely notifications in the event of an emergency, there will be a test
of our Illini-Alert emergency notification system each semester. The
fall semester test will occur at 10:00 AM on September 14th, 2010.
Illini-Alert is an emergency notification system controlled by the
Division of Public Safety that sends email and text messages in the event
of a campus emergency. It also integrates with campus websites to
display a pop-up message during a campus emergency. All members of the
university community will receive an email to their Illinois.edu address
automatically. However, in order to receive text messages, you must
register your phone with the Illini-Alert system. For full instructions
on registering your phone and updating your contact information, and
inviting others to join the service (e.g. parents, significant other,
etc.), please visit https://emergency.illinois.edu/enrolling.aspx.
Illini-Alert is NOT vehicle for promotions and marketing communications.
These messages are sent by the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign
Division of Public Safety in order to communicate information as quickly
as possible during emergency situations or during infrequent system
tests.
If you do not receive an email message during the test, please contact
the CITES HelpDesk at (217) 244-7000 or consult@illinois.edu
immediately. If you have registered your cell phone to receive messages
and do not receive the test message on September 14th, 2010, please
contact the CITES HelpDesk.
Warm regards,
Lt. Todd Short
