Communication during emergency events
In an emergency, Indiana University will send notifications to any or all of the following phone numbers and email addresses currently on file for you:
- IU office
- Home
- Private office/secondary home
- Cellular
- Cellular 2
- Cellular 3
- IU email
- *SMS/text
- Non-IU email
IU uses a variety of methods to provide emergency and safety information, including sirens, public address, web pages, building stewards, residence hall assistants, broadcast and electronic media, and a consolidated communications system. Collectively, these capabilities are called "IU-Notify". More information about these services, as well as current emergency status or preparedness information for IU, is available at Emergencies, Continuity & Planning.
The communication system permits broadcast messages to be quickly sent as voice calls to office, local home, and/or cell phones, and as text messages to cell phones and university and external email accounts. This system will be used to announce and provide guidance in an emergency or crisis, and to communicate relevant critical updates.
The university plans to broadcast a test message once per semester to gauge the system's effectiveness.
Your contact information
Students will receive emergency notifications based on personal information in the university's Student Information Systems, while Human Resources is the source for faculty and staff information.
