Emergency Notification

Alma College has implemented an emergency notification system called Connect-ED® by The NTI Group Inc.

As part of this service, the College has the ability to reach all students, faculty and staff with immediate, time-sensitive information during a campus emergency. During critical situations, Alma College officials can use the system to broadcast pertinent information and provide details on appropriate responses. In all, the multi-modal service helps College officials simultaneously reach out to students, faculty and staff via:

  • Voice messages to home, work, and cell phones
  • Text messages to cell phones, PDAs and other text-based devices
  • Written messages to e-mail accounts
  • Messages to TTY/TDD receiving devices for people with hearing impairments

What does Janelle Young have in common with Aristotle and Descartes? The Charlotte sophomore enjoys pondering life’s big questions just as much as the world’s greatest philosophers did.

“I came to Alma College wanting to be a music educator, but I found myself leaving my religion class excited,” she says. “I really loved contemplating questions related to religion and the existence of God, and I realized that’s where my passion was.”
