Sign up for UTC ALERT text messaging system

UTC has implemented a new text messaging system to notify students,
faculty, and staff in the event of a campus emergency. UTC ALERT can be
set up to send both a text message and email message to designated
devices. UTC ALERT messages will contain immediate instructions in the
event of an emergency.

Enrollment in the system is free and easy to complete.  Visit
http://www.utc.edu/TakingPrecautions/ and sign up now.

"We have to do everything we can to prepare the campus to address any
type of emergency.  Almost all students, faculty, and staff carry cell
phones, so this text messaging system is an additional communication
resource that we hope will deliver information quickly," said Chuck
Cantrell, assistant vice chancellor.

A test of the system is scheduled for April 2.  All students, faculty,
and staff members who have enrolled in the system by that time should
receive a test text message.
