California State University (CSU) Stanislaus has implemented StanAlert, an emergency notification system (ENS) capable of rapidly sending voice, e-mail and text messages to faculty, staff and students. CSU Stanislaus officials use StanAlert to convey timely information—including urgent safety instructions—during an emergency or major situation affecting the campus. The quickest and most effective method to receive StanAlert messages is via a text to your cell phone. The university strongly recommends all faculty, staff and students regularly ensure their StanAlert contact information is up-to-date via the portal on this page. Most importantly, a text message number should be included for the cell phone individuals will carry while on campus.

Please note: some mobile carriers require recipients to "opt in" to the receive automated text messages. When initially signing up for StanAlert, be aware that you may receive a special text requiring action to confirm your desire to receive future StanAlert messages.
