Sacramento State’s Emergency Notification System automates delivery of urgent announcements to faculty, students and staff. The system sends out text messages, phone calls and e-mail in the event of a critical situation that may cause harm or imminent danger.

The alerts would only be used in the event of an emergency that threatened the safety of students, faculty, staff and visitors. It would provide protective action recommendations. Examples of such events would be a campus shooting, bomb threat, hazardous materials spill, flood or fire.

In the event of an emergency, Public Safety may send a notification message. A follow-up notification can be sent shortly thereafter, with more specific details of the event and safety procedures, or an “all-clear” message sent when the threat has ended.  The community may also be alerted to visit the campus’ homepage, www.csus.edu, for more information.
