 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
