»Æ¹ÏÊÓƵ is among the SUNY campuses that use Rave Alert System as their notification system to notify college students, faculty and staff of possible emergencies.

Our Rave Alert notices are intended only for situations involving imminent danger to health or human safety. These may include severe weather, snow closings, utility failure, major road closings, fire or hazardous-material spill in the area, and bomb or weapon threats.

Every »Æ¹ÏÊÓƵ student and employee has an account in my»Æ¹ÏÊÓƵ, the College’s information system. You can use your my»Æ¹ÏÊÓƵ account to sign up for our Rave Alert service. Then, if »Æ¹ÏÊÓƵ generates a Rave Alert notice, it will be sent to you via the phone (text) and/or e-mail contact information you provide.

It’s important to understand that while this service is intended to enhance public safety for the campus community, it does not represent a guarantee. Reliability depends on human factors such as accuracy and timeliness of information, and on technical factors such as cell phone network coverage, in-bound traffic on telephone land lines, and availability of power to the college server and your computer. Students, faculty and staff are encouraged to take advantage of the Rave Alert service as a prudent measure while continuing to exercise normal attention to personal and community safety.

Rave Alert sends notices at no charge; however, your provider’s standard charges will apply for carrying text messages sent by »Æ¹ÏÊÓƵ Rave Alert System.
