DESCRIPTION:ɬÀï·¬ has built up a wide range of communications t
 ools to help keep you safe in an emergency.  Depending on the situation an
 d level of urgency\, we can send you text messages (sign up through Minerv
 a)\, post emergency announcements on the ɬÀï·¬.ca website and send pop-up
  warnings to most ɬÀï·¬ computers (more info here).  Don’t worry\, we won
 ’t flood you with messages – we’ll only use these tools in a real urgent s
 ituation.\nOn Oct. 23\, we’ll be testing many of these tools to make sure 
 they’ll work if you ever need them.  Read the information below to find ou
 t whether/how these tests will affect you.\nWe’ll be testing:\nSMS text me
 ssages\nAt 9:30am\, we’ll start sending test messages to cell phones of st
 udents\, staff and faculty who’ve signed up for this ɬÀï·¬ | Attention! m
 essaging service.  This is a powerful tool that’s designed to get you the 
 information you need when you need it most\, but to make sure you can rece
 ive these messages\, you need to sign up now.\nPop-up messages on computer
  screens\nAt 9:30am we’ll send a pop-up test message to most desktops and 
 many laptops across ɬÀ﷬’s campuses.  If you don’t receive a message by 
 12:00pm you’ll need to install Alertus software on your computer to make s
 ure you can receive urgent messages in the future.\nɬÀï·¬.ca website anno
 uncements\nIn a real crisis\, ɬÀï·¬.ca is the place to go for the latest 
 information on how to stay safe.  We’ll be testing our emergency Web annou
 ncements in three phases:\nPhase 1Between 9:00 - 10:30am: A banner message
  will appear at the top of all three ɬÀï·¬.ca homes pages (www.mcgill.ca\
 , www.mcgill.ca/students and www.mcgill.ca/staff)\, and their French –lang
 uage counterparts. Nothing will change on any other pages. This will allow
  us to test the basic functionality of the emergency web announcement syst
 em without restricting access to important web services during a period of
  high traffic.\nPhase 2Between 10:30 - 12:00pm: A test message will appear
  in a banner at the top of all ɬÀï·¬.ca pages. Users will be able to navi
 gate the website normally.\nPhase 3Between 20:30 - 20.35pm: Visitors to Mc
 Gill’s three home pages will see an emergency page featuring the test mess
 age. Other ɬÀï·¬.ca pages will be navigable\, but will continue to displa
 y the banner at the top.\nPhase 4Between 20:35 – 20:40: we’ll take the sys
 tem to the highest alert level. All traffic to all ɬÀï·¬.ca pages will be
  diverted to an emergency page displaying a test message.\nYour feedback\n
 If you have any questions about these tests\, email us at emergency.measur
 es [at] mcgill.ca\nThank you.
