Franklin & Marshall's Emergency Alert is an instant, mass notification system that enables students, parents, and members of the faculty and professional staff to receive updates and alerts on cell phones, email accounts, and social media sites (Twitter and Facebook). Powered by Rave Mobile Safety, the Franklin & Marshall Emergency Alert system is our effort to better disseminate emergency information and is intended to increase safety on the Franklin & Marshall campus.
