Jaguar Alert System

An Emergency Notification System is now in place to notify faculty, staff, and students of emergency situations. “Only emergency notices regarding severe threats to campus or public safety that call for immediate action will be issued,” says Jasper Cooke, director of the Department of Public Safety. Jaguar Alert will not be used for nonemergency notifications such as lane closures, crime updates, inclement weather closings, or situations that have been contained where a threat does not exist.

“If there is anyone on campus who has not opted into the Jaguar Alert System, I urge them to do so,” says Chief Cooke.

In the Jaguar Alert System—which is provided by Connect-ED—faculty, staff, and students who opt in to the service may register two telephone numbers, two email addresses, and one device for text to receive emergency alerts. Emergency messages are broadcast to all contact numbers and email addresses provided.

“Emergency calls or emails from the Jaguar Alert System should be taken seriously by everyone. In the event of an emergency notification, it is also important that everyone follows the instructions provided and takes the immediate action requested,” says Chief Cooke. “

If you have not registered, please go into Pipeline, click on the Jaguar Alert button, and follow the directions for opting into the program. Once you have registered, you will receive a confirmation message.

“The new Emergency Notification System is designed to keep our faculty, staff, and students as safe as possible prior to, during, and following emergencies,” says Chief Cooke. “But they have to opt into the program first.”
