RAVE OU Alerts
In certain cases, an OU Alert will be issued to the entire Oglethorpe community via email, telephone and text message with specific instructions on how to proceed. Emergency procedures for various types of emergencies are detailed in the policy links below.
Everyone with an active oglethorpe.edu email address should automatically receive alerts via email.
Students, faculty and staff are strongly encouraged to register for the RAVE OUAlert emergency notification system. It is the safest way to ensure that you receive critical university notifications on safety issues, school closings and weather alerts. Notification messages will be provided via text message to a cell phone, voice message to any phone number, and e-mail. Additional emergency messages will be sent out through the university’s Facebook and Twitter accounts.
