Don’t be alarmed. There is a scheduled test of the Illini-Alert system today at 10am. The full system will be activated, including text messages, and website alerts.
This is a good time to remind all of you about the importance of signing up for Illini-Alert. Please make sure that you are registered at emergency.illinois.edu, so you can receive text and email notifications in the event of major campus emergencies. It’s not a hard process, and it’s definitely worth it.
When registering for Illini-Alert, please follow all instructions including sending yourself a test text message. For questions or problems concerning the Illini-Alert service, please contact the CITES Help Desk at (217) 244-7000 or email consult@illinois.edu.
During tomorrow’s test, you will not need to do anything. However, if you do not receive the test message tomorrow morning on or about 10 a.m., please contact the CITES Help Desk.
