 Subject: MASSMAIL - Test of Emergency Messaging System - August 16

The Urbana campus will re-test its new emergency alert system on Tuesday 
(Aug. 16) at 1:30 p.m.

The test of the Illini-Alert system will use all of the communication 
capabilities of the new system.

* Email messages will be sent to all Illinois.edu addresses and to any 
secondary email addresses.

* Text messages will be sent to those people who have registered their 
cellphone numbers.

* The emergency Web alert system will trigger a pop-up box on all campus 
websites.

* A message will appear on the Illini-Alert Facebook account.

* A message will be sent to the Illini-Alert Twitter account.

The test does not require any response; evaluators will be able to 
monitor the speed and distribution rates of the messaging.

If you are not registered for text messaging, do not attempt to register 
now. Instructions on how to register will be forthcoming after the test.

Sincerely,
Lt. Todd Short
