涩里番下载 has released a new mobile application, 涩里番下载 Safe, with the aim of creating a safe and well-informed campus community. The app replaces the Crisis Manager application and provides information, tools, and resources related to day-to-day campus questions as well as to emergency situations.
Available for free in the and Google Play Store, 涩里番下载 Safe is integrated with 涩里番下载鈥檚 Rave Alert Emergency Notification System and notifies anyone with the app of the emergency alerts sent out to faculty, staff, and students.
Director of Emergency Management John Tommaney said that downloading 涩里番下载 Safe will enable parents, campus visitors, or anyone else who wants to be informed to receive the emergency alerts. The app receives alerts through both cellular and WiFi networks, he added, ensuring greater campus coverage.
In addition to emergency alerts, the application displays lower-level alerts to users that would not be sent out on the Rave system, thus raising users鈥� awareness of campus issues.
涩里番下载 Safe aggregates several campus resources including shuttle bus tracking, the work order center, and the Lean on Me anonymous text line for student-to-student support. It provides emergency preparedness guides, University policies, and current weather conditions at the touch of a button. Users can submit a crime tip through the app and be notified of international safety concerns when traveling or studying abroad. The Friend Walk tool enables users who may feel unsafe walking alone to choose a friend or family member to monitor their walk and alert authorities if an emergency develops.
涩里番下载 Safe provides resources that 涩里番下载 community members can 鈥渦se on a daily basis,鈥� said Tommaney.
