Ithaca College

This is a reminder that a test of the Ithaca College Emergency Notification System (ENS) will take place this Thursday, Feb. 11, during the noon hour. It will include a test of the outdoor public address warning system, which features a siren tone and a loudspeaker message. There is no need to take any action in response to the test.

The ENS uses voice, e-mail, and text messaging to provide information and instructions in the event of a campus emergency.

In order to receive alerts using all three methods, members of the campus community need to enter their contact information by going to www.ithaca.edu/emergencynotification and logging in using their Ithaca College e-mail username and password. It takes one full day for additions/revisions to contact information to take effect.

By default, ENS messages go to all active Ithaca College e-mail accounts and to faculty and staff office telephones that are listed in the campus directory.

Please be aware that, because of system capacities, not everyone will receive an alert message by each method at exactly the same time.
