Alert Systems

CU Emergency Alert System

In an effort to increase safety and security on our campus, Concord University uses an alert service from Omnilert. Alerts will only be used for security, safety, and weather-related notices. All students, faculty, and staff are automatically enrolled for email alerts. You may configure voice and/or SMS alerts as additional alert mechanisms. Visit https://www.concord.edu/cualerts to configure your alert preferences.

The website homepage, https://www.concord.edu, is updated immediately as information is available.

Emergency Sirens

If the sirens are activated, immediately “shelter in place” and check your text messages and email for details.

Residence Life

Residence halls have procedures for alerting people in individual halls via resident assistants, phones, and signage.

Local Media

The University works with the news media, radio, TV, newspaper, and Internet to help spread the word.
