UO Alert! - Emergency Text Notification System

 

The University of Oregon places the security and safety of its students, employees and visitors as its highest priority. To keep you informed in emergency situations the University has developed the UO Alert! text notification system. Students, faculty, and staff can stay informed about critical campus safety information by registering to receive UO Alert! messages.

UO Alert! is only one of many ways the University provides notifications about emergencies, including the University home page (www.uoregon.edu), e-mail, Community Emergency Notification System (CENS) sometimes referred to as "reverse 911," CENS, campus radio and local media. The goal is to communicate emergency information in many different ways to ensure that the most people receive notification as quickly as possible.
