CornellALERT Test – Cornell will conduct a test of the campus emergency notification system on Wednesday, Feb. 5, at 12:10 p.m. This includes notifications sent through voice and text messaging, email, campus sirens and other platforms. Register or update your mobile phone number to ensure timely emergency notifications.

Construction Safety – Slow down and be alert when navigating construction zones. Ease frustration by planning ahead and, if possible, avoiding areas with active roadwork. Pedestrians, stay out of fenced construction areas and use the marked sidewalk detours. Stay updated on disruptions by visiting the special conditions website or signing up for email alerts. Information about other local roadway construction projects can be found on the city, county and state webpages.

Physical Security – Cornell has released an updated Policy 8.1 – Physical Security Systems, outlining the responsibilities and procedures for public safety at Cornell campuses and facilities. Please review the policy and its procedures to understand how campus security controls, systems and protocols help to provide a safe and secure environment for all members of the community.
