Changes have now been made to Rave, 91ֿ’s Emergency Communication System, which is used to send Flash ALERTS as text messages when important information needs to be distributed in a timely fashion, such as during a safety crisis or weather emergency.
Users should visit the Flash ALERTS webpage and from there log in to Rave to select which campus or campuses they would like to receive notifications about via text messaging.
“Information delivered via Flash ALERTS can be critical in an emergency, so it’s important that all users have reviewed their personal profiles to ensure they have selected the appropriate campuses and that all phone numbers are up to date,” said Mark Polatajko, Ph.D., 91ֿ’s senior vice president for finance and administration.
Users also can update the phone numbers of additional people – typically family members – who would also like to receive Flash ALERTS.
Because information delivered via Flash ALERTS can be critical for your safety, it is important that you log in as soon as possible and update your preferences.
If no action is taken, you will continue to receive Flash ALERTS for all campuses. Whether you are a new or existing user, please note that you will need to re-register any additional phone numbers for others you would like added to your profile; additional contacts registered before the update to Rave will not automatically receive these text messages.
