Full-screen emergency alert system installed at 成人直播 State

WSU News Services

  • A full-screen emergency alert system is up and running for WSU students, faculty and staff.
  • The system, called Alertus, instantly pops up an alert on any university-owned computer screen.
  • Alertus FAQ:

As part of 成人直播 State University鈥檚 commitment to providing timely emergency information to the campus community, WSU has added Alertus Desktop Notifications to the university Shocker Alert System.

Alertus provides a full-screen alert when a Shocker Alert is issued.

The Shocker Alert system contacts all students, faculty and staff via email and digital office clocks the moment there is an emergency or weather alert that affects the campus. People can also choose to sign up for text alerts.

This newest desktop alert is just one more way to keep everyone informed, especially those who don鈥檛 have a digital clock in their office and have their cell phones and email applications turned off.

Alertus allows WSU to display the alert directly on WSU-owned PCs, reducing the amount of time it would take to notify users in the event of an emergency. Anyone working on a WSU-owned Mac can call the help desk, 316-978-4357, to get signed up.
