Emergency Communications

There are several ways our department communicates important information to students, staff, and faculty.

Omnilert (EWU Alerts)

Omnilert is used to communicate with subscribers through text and e-mail notifications. The alerts are sent upon confirmation of a significant emergency or dangerous situation involving an immediate threat to the health or safety of students or employees.  Students, employees, parents and other community members can sign up for Omnilert via the EWU Alerts link above.

Timely Warnings

Time Warnings and Public Safety Advisories are issued when a crime is reported on campus, and there is an ongoing threat to the campus community. Timely warnings are emailed to all active students and employees, using their official EWU email address.  Timely warnings are also posted on our web page (click on the EWU Timely Warnings link above).

Social Media & Websites

Omnilert alerts are also posted to the EWU Police Twitter feed and the the EWU web page banner.  The Twitter account is also used to post other tips and helpful information.

Emergency Response Procedures

The Emergency Response Procedures are designed as a quick reference to emergency management guidelines for Eastern Washington University. These guidelines are intended to provide a basic procedural framework for responding to an emergency at the university.  The guidelines can be accessed by clicking on the Emergency Response Procedures above.
