Dear campus community member,
The Urbana campus will test its emergency notification system at 10:05 a.m. on Tuesday, June 2.
The test of the Illini-Alert system will use all of the communication capabilities of the emergency notification system:
- Email messages will be sent to all active faculty and staff members and students with @illinois.edu email addresses and to any secondary email addresses that have been registered at http://emergency.illinois.edu.
- 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 (http://www.facebook.com/illinialert).
- A message will appear on the Illini-Alert Twitter account (http://twitter.com/illinialert).
The test does not require any response; evaluators will be able to monitor the speed and distribution rates of the messaging. Please visit http://emergency.illinois.edu to add or update your cellphone number and email address. Please visit http://cites.illinois.edu/illinialert for additional information and technical support. Sincerely, Lieutenant Todd Short University of Illinois Police Department Office of Campus Emergency Planning
