Campus will test UH Alert emergency communications next Wednesday

UH Mānoa will conduct an integrated campus-wide test of its emergency communications capabilities next Wednesday, December 13, between 2:00 p.m. and 3:30 p.m..

The following will occur:

  1. Test EMAIL messages will go out to all UH Mānoa (including JABSOM/UHCC) students, faculty, staff and vicinity contacts.
  2. Test TEXT messages will be sent to those who have signed up to receive emergency TEXT messages.  Sign up for emergency TEXT messages at https://www.hawaii.edu/alert/.  UH Alert text messages will come from (833) 544-2732 or 84323.
  3. The official UH Mānoa home page at https://manoa.hawaii.edu  and social media accounts will be updated to reflect the test (follow us on Facebook and X (formerly known as Twitter) @uhmanoa). UH Mānoa Department of Public Safety social media accounts will also be updated to reflect this test (follow us on Facebook and X @uhmanoasafety).

All members of the UH Mānoa community are urged to sign up to receive emergency TEXT alerts (if you have not already done so) by going online to the website at https://www.hawaii.edu/alert/.  If you have already signed up, log in at https://www.hawaii.edu/alert/ to ensure that your contact information is up-to-date.  You may test your cell phone information by sending a test message from the website to your phone. If you are having technical trouble with UH Alert, see the article at http://www.hawaii.edu/askus/1363 or send an email to uha.help@hawaii.edu.

In addition to signing up for UH Alert, we encourage our community to read through our Emergency Response Guidebook, which provides emergency response and evacuation procedures for a wide variety of incidents, including hurricanes, natural disasters, fires, active shooter incidents, bomb threats, civil disturbances, and more.  

Thank you in advance of the December 13, 2023 test of UH Alert.
