What type of information will be sent through the TTUAlert system?
The university only plans to send notifications via the TTUAlert system for events that impact the majority of the campus, such as school closures or emergencies. Periodically the university will send a test notification to verify the functionality of the system. The system can only send messages of 132 CHARACTERS in length. An example: Tornado warning from Ntl Weather Svc. Seek shelter area in building. Listen 4 instructions, watch 4 follow-up e-mail or txt msgs. More information will be provided through follow-up text messages, e-mail messages, web postings, media announcements, etc. Be advised – it takes time to gather and prepare the information to send to you. Campus safety officials will work as quickly as possible to get necessary information to you.
