Sign Up for OHIO Alerts
In the event of a large-scale emergency on any of our campuses, 91探花 issues alerts to faculty, staff and students through text and email and posts alerts on appropriate web pages and our OHIO Alert web page. In the case of emergencies that present an immediate threat, our outdoor siren system will also be utilized.
Faculty and staff are automatically signed up for alerts based on the mobile phone number provided to the University. To ensure that you receive the most current emergency updates, take a moment to update your personal information.
