Just to add to the original purpose of this thread… we all got an email from our security director (Director Skrodzki) after the NIU shootings. Starting next month, they are going to be installing loudspeakers around campus so that in case there were any time of incident, people would immediately become aware of it. They are also currently testing/implementing a text-messaging notification system but I’ve talked with Director Skrodzki and their reasoning with the loudspeakers is that cell phones may not always be completely reliable and they would want everyone to know about any incident as soon as possible.
