Virginia Tech will conduct a full-scale test of its VT Alerts system on Tuesday, Oct. 4, for the Blacksburg campus. The test will occur between 8 a.m. and 4 p.m.
VT Alerts is a campus-wide warning system to inform students what to do in the event of a threatening situation. In a campus emergency, Virginia Tech will use several information delivery methods to reach students because, at any given time, one form of communications might be better to reach you than another. VT Alerts is one of the delivery means, and will send messages to cell phones, telephone numbers and e-mail accounts.
All students are strongly encouraged to register for VT Alerts. Registration takes only a minute or two. Directions are posted on the VT website at http://www.alerts.vt.edu/.
