How does my USA Alert number differ from the emergency notification numbers I have on file with the registrar and/or human resources department?
The emergency notification numbers you have on file with the registrar or human resources department are in case of a personal emergency. In case something happens to you as an individual, the university will use those numbers to reach the people you have indicated as your own personal emergency contacts. The USA Alert notification numbers are the numbers at which the university can reach you in case of a campus-wide emergency.
