Crisis communications
During an emergency or severe weather event, the ÎÞÂëÂÒÂ× crisis communications team works with response agencies and the ÎÞÂëÂÒÂ× incident management team to provide the public and campus community with timely information. The two main sources for ongoing and updated information during a crisis:
- ÎÞÂëÂÒÂ× hotline at 907-474-7ÎÞÂëÂÒÂ× (7823)
Information is also provided via telephone calls, text messages, loudspeaker and beacon announcements, email, social media, verbal updates and computer pop-up messages.
