The university uses multiple methods like the TechAlert system, voicemail, email, text and social media to communicate emergency information to students. The TechAlert system automatically enrolls students and they can update their contact information. TechAlert will only be used in the event of campus closings or emergencies like severe weather and has been used for campus closings due to snow or system tests in the past. Students should ensure their contact information is up to date in the TechAlert system.
