Emergency Text Alert Notification Policy

Georgetown College will only activate the text alert system in cases of a major emergency that affects campus and the campus community:

  • Natural disasters - tornado, ice storm, earthquake, flooding, etc.
  • Man-made disaster - fire, hazardous waste spill or release, etc.
  • Active shooter - suspected or confirmed active shooter on or near campus
  • Other major disasters - determined by the College Administration and/or Director of Campus Safety.

The text alert system will not be used for:

  • Routine campus announcements/news/general communication
  • Street or parking lot closings unless they are related to an emergency
  • Other routine information dissemination

Georgetown College’s emergency text message system sends students, faculty, and staff updates and alerts via cell phone. It is a completely voluntary and free service provided to the GC community. No advertisements or non-emergency alerts are sent. Registration is required to receive alerts. This is a voluntary service, and anyone can opt-in or opt-out at any time.

Users are responsible for any messaging charges from your wireless service provider. Georgetown College is not responsible for any charges your service provider may impose for standard text message fees.

Your information is not, and will never be, shared with or sold to third parties.
