Timely Warnings
Timely warnings are one type of notification you may receive in the event that there is an ongoing threat to the campus community.
The federal Clery Act requires colleges and universities to issue timely warnings to the campus community when there is an ongoing threat to public safety.
The university typically will not issue a timely warning if a crime is made and it’s believed a threat no longer exists.
