we have a similar system that was just implemented, and a big long email about emergency preparedness just went out from the president:
In the event such a catastrophe befell the W____ community, we would provide multiple sources of information: via the Internet, voicemail, email, and personal communication. In addition to posting emergency messages on the University website and broadcasting these messages to the campus community via email and voicemail, we would contact students on their personal telephones and cell phones, using a new remote system that would enable us to reach them even if all campus systems were
inoperable. We also would work through the Residential Life staff to get the word out in person.
