The Oakland University Police Department (OUPD) and University Communications and Marketing will conduct the Fall 2022 test of the OU's emergency text alert message system at approximately 1 p.m. on Wednesday, October 5.
The university uses text alerts to ensure that in the event of an emergency, all who register to receive the alerts will receive critical information as quickly as possible. Text alerts are sent only in response to the following conditions:
To receive emergency text messages, campus community members must register for the service. Anyone with an active OU e-mail account and Grizz ID number can do so on the OUPD web section.
Registered users who have used the web section above to ensure their contact information is up to date and who do not receive a text alert test message on during the upcoming test should report this to servicedesk@oupolice.com.
