Simmons College recently purchased Connect-Ed, an emergency notification system. In preparation for use of this system, all members of the community were invited to update personal information either through spring registration (students) or through AARC (faculty and staff). We are now ready to test Connect-Ed, and will be doing so on Friday, March 28, in the late morning.
The test message we release should be delivered to the phone numbers (work, home, cell), email addresses (work, personal), and text phone number you specified when updating your personal information. Our review of the database indicates that many people have not supplied phone numbers and email addresses to the full possibility allowed in Connect-Ed. In order to receive important and/or emergency formation through all possible means, we strongly encourage everyone to provide the full range of phone numbers and email addresses allowed by the system. Please update your information in AARC as soon as possible.
Thank you and – remember – THE MESSAGE YOU RECEIVE ON FRIDAY, MARCH 28, IS ONLY A TEST.
