Dear Members of the Fordham Community,

The Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) and the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) will conduct national tests of the Emergency Alert System and Wireless Emergency Alerts on Wednesday, October 4, at approximately 2:20 p.m. EDT. Test messages will be sent to all TVs, radios and cell phones at that time. Note that this is not a University test: Fordham has no control over the timing nor content of the messages. The full text of the FEMA/FCC notice can be found on the FEMA website.

As always, please call Fordham Public Safety at (718) 817-2222 in case of a real emergency.

Sincerely,

Robert Fitzer, Associate Vice President
Fordham Department of Public Safety

Emergency Communications Test

On, Thursday, August 17, the University is testing all of its emergency notification systems at all Fordham campuses, including text, email, the University website, electronic campus bulletin boards, campus public address systems, and a WFUV announcement. The tests will be conducted between 11 a.m. and noon, and will include visual and auditory notifications: we ask that you not be alarmed, but do take notice of how such messages are delivered, so that you’ll recognize an alert in the case of a real emergency.

We perform these tests at least twice every school year to ensure that the systems essential for your safety are working properly, and that both the staff responsible for sending emergency messages and the members of the campus community are acquainted with their operation. Feel free to call the Department of Public Safety at 718-817-2222 if you have any questions or concerns.

This is a test of Fordham’s Emergency Notification System.

You should have received this message above via text on your mobile phone and at your Fordham email address. If this is not the case, please ensure that you have listed the correct number as your emergency contact at http://my.fordham.edu.

Please note that currently enrolled students, faculty, and employees of the University may not opt out of these notifications, as the system is a critical channel for communications in an emergency. This policy is designed for your safety, and the safety of the Fordham community.

Thank you for your cooperation.
