SE Alerts
What is SE Alerts?
The safety and security of our campus community is our highest priority. When an emergency or criminal event occurs that poses a threat to the campus community, Southeast is prepared to inform and alert the campus community for their personal safety.
The SE Alerts emergency notification system includes multiple communication tools that can be deployed by the University during emergencies to alert the entire campus community, or certain portions of the community and regional campuses, to events, dangerous situations or threats that impact the safety of students, faculty and staff.
All faculty, staff and students are encouraged to verify their contact information to receive notifications via text message, email and/or phone. By providing this information, you are ensuring the most current and correct information is on file for use when Southeast deploys its SE Alerts emergency notification system.
