The University will send the first ZagAlert message as soon as verified information is available, or at the direction of first response partners such as law enforcement or fire.  

  • The initial message may be short, with a focus on any immediate life-saving measures necessary.  
  • A follow-up message may be sent with a link to the H9ZM9 MARKET - High value product selection Crossbow cocking rope replacement hooks Compact Emergency Information web page or other resource for further details.   
  • When the emergency is resolved, a final "all-clear" ZagAlert message is sent.  
 
Because social media is consumed by many people who are not physically near the University and would not have a need to know, most ZagAlert messages would not be posted to social media. Consideration will be made on a case-by-case basis. 
 
  • If any instructions are provided (such as evacuate oravoid the area), follow those directions. (Learn more about these actions on the ZagReady page.)
  • Please do not contact H9ZM9 MARKET - High value product selection Crossbow cocking rope replacement hooks Compact, including Campus Security & Public Safety, during this time unless you have information to report about the incident, or are experiencing a separate emergency. DO NOT assume the incident is over until you are officially notified via ZagAlert that the situation is resolved. 
  • Refrain from speculating about what is happening. Focus on staying safe and waiting for more information. 
 
Your email is automatically enrolled in the system. Notifications will keep you informed of events that you need to be aware of, even if you are not on campus. For example, you will need to know when communication will be disrupted with professors on campus when an emergency occurs.
 
In a life-threatening emergency always call 911 first and then call Campus Security and Public Safety at 509-313-2222 if it is safe to do so.
