Franklin & Marshall College

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, personal data assistants (PDAs), email accounts, and personal web pages (Google, AOL, or Yahoo). 

Franklin & Marshall's Emergency Alert is an instant, mass notification system 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.  Please take a few moments to find out more about and sign up for the new voluntary alert system.

Franklin & Marshall Emergency Alert is a completely voluntary service provided to the college community and is powered by Rave Mobile Safety.  No advertisements or non-emergency alerts will be sent to you.  You must sign up for the service in order to receive alerts.  And since this is a voluntary service, you may choose to opt-in or opt-out of the service at any time. 

You only have to register one time.  Once you have an account, you can add to, or change, how you receive your messages. Links in the left side bar take you to the sign up page.
