Timely Warnings and Emergency Notifications

Campus alerts and notifications are intended to provide timely warning of emergencies and crimes that pose an ongoing threat to faculty, staff, and students. These alerts contain a brief description of the incident; the date, time, and location of the incident; and precautions to take. Depending on the nature of the emergency, a decision will be made to utilize various methods of notifications. Methods may include but are not limited to the following:

• Campus-wide email
• Automated telephone
• Email and text message via RAVE Mobile Safety
• Vassar College Website Home
• Campus Safety Patrol announcements via portable loudspeaker
• Emergency Siren
• Digital signage emergency messaging
