On Tuesday, October 6, at noon, Smith’s
Department of Public Safety will test the college’s emergency notification
system. The exercise is conducted periodically to gauge our ability to contact
all Smith community members by text message, cell phone or e-mail in the
event of a critical incident on campus.
Please follow the instructions within the message
and respond so that we can best determine how well the system is working.
If you need to make changes to your emergency
contact information prior to this test, you can do so by noon on Friday,
October 2. Contact information entered by that time should receive
the test. To receive emergency messages through your cell phone, via text
or voice, please update your emergency contact information. Students and
employees can do so by logging on to BannerWeb using
their nine-digit user ID number and PIN. Click the link for Personal Information
Menu and then "Emergency Information Review and Update." In order
to be included in the Emergency Alert System, cell phone numbers must be
designated "My Cell Phone."
Other than periodic tests, the college will use
this system only for serious campus emergencies in which the safety and well
being of community members may be in jeopardy.
