Alert Messaging

Goldey-Beacom College has contracted with e2Campus, a private company, to provide both emergency notifications and updates through text messaging and e-mail.  To get this optional service, students, faculty, and staff must sign up.  Standard text messaging fees may be charged by your service provider when you sign up for the text messaging service.

e2Campus is aimed at improving safety on campus and enables Goldey-Beacom College to provide a rapid delivery of messages via text messaging and e-mail.  With one text message or e-mail, everyone who is registered can be notified about a campus emergency, weather cancellations or delays, campus happenings, etc.

Users of the alert system can manage their own accounts via the link provided in the left menu, 'Login to Your Account', and make updates to their device, contact information, alert categories, or to opt out of the system.  Users should also remember to update their information should they purchase a new cell phone with a different carrier/number or change their e-mail address.
