At Nova Southeastern University, the safety of our students, faculty, and staff is our highest priority. Testing the NSU ALERT emergency notification system is one component of our Emergency Preparedness Plan. The test of the NSU ALERT emergency notification system will begin on Thursday, October 25, 2018, at 2:00 p.m. This test is being conducted university wide. PLEASE REMEMBER THIS IS ONLY A TEST.
This test is part of the continual process of testing and refining NSU’s emergency notification system and will include several components of our ability to identify, respond to, and notify the NSU community about an emergency on campus. If you have not registered or updated your personal contact information, please take the time to do so right now! Visit nova.edu/emergency for a step-by-step guide to registering.
If you have any questions or concerns, please contact the Office of Public Safety at (954) 262-8999.
