UU Alerts Notification System
91爆料网 continues to work to provide a safe learning, living and working environment for students and employees. However, there can be times when it is critical that the college find ways to immediately inform the campus community of an emergency.
As part of the college's review of the emergency response plan, a new program was implemented during the Fall 2007 semester. All students and employees are strongly encouraged to sign-up for notification of campus emergencies through a text message and email alert system.
Students/Faculty/Staff
91爆料网 offers an emergency notification system that is available to all students, faculty, staff, spouses and parents on our Jackson, Germantown, MCUTS (Memphis College of Urban and Theological Studies) and Hendersonville campuses. If the University has been provided with the correct cell phone number, students, faculty and staff will have an account created for them. Students, faculty and staff will still need to update their account with alternate contact information (e-mail and additional phone numbers) at the site below.
