Bits & Bytes: New York Alert System
Apr 13th, 2009 by student01

This month we will be discussing the SUNY New York Alert system. The New York Alert system was created in light of recent campus incidents. Students, staff and faculty are informed about emergencies occurring on or around their college campus. The system notifies their members of Bomb treats, Hazardous materials, Personal safety, Severe weather and Utility failure. I’m already signed up with the system and it comes in handy with notifying about severe snow storms. Delhi is known for having big snow storms and dangerous driving conditions. I know the next question that pops into your head is, how do you sign up or become apart of the New York Alert system? It is very easy to sign up to the system; it takes less than five minutes to complete it.

If you still have questions about the New York Alert system you can go on campus life and click on SUNY NY Alert. When you sign up there are many ways that the system can contact you. You can get text, phone and email messages sent to you. I personally selected text messaging as an alert option. It’s better for me because I am always on my phone. After reading this blog would you sign up for the system? If you already signed up, tell me how the NY Alert system helped you? How do you feel about the system?
