PLAN DESCRIPTIONS

Emergency Response Guide:  This plan is a digital version of the flip charts we hang in many office spaces around campus.

See Something / Say Something:  This plan is a crowd-sourcing tool to tell us about unsafe or hazardous conditions around campus. You can take a picture, add a comment and send it emergency management personnel right from the app. See Something / Say Something is not intended to replace 911 -- if you see a life-threatening or emergency situation, please call 911.

Campus Alert - Push Notification:  If you are NOT a student, faculty or staff member but still need Campus Alert notifications, download this plan. When Campus Alerts are sent out via SMS and email to the campus, you will also receive push notifications to the U Heads Up! app.
