  • U-Tip for Text Messaging
  • UNO Care Team (formerly BRT)

Using U-Tip is an application of the UNO Alert system, but registration with UNO Alert is not required to use the system. Report suspicious activity you see on campus to Public Safety using this SMS texting service.

You can use the service to report suspicious activities seen on campus, such as theft, vandalism, drugs, domestic disputes, disorderly sports fans, and more.

U-Tip can also be used to help prevent crimes on campus by reporting incidents before they escalate and by helping Public Safety spot suspicious individuals. U-Tip is not anonymous.

How to use U-Tip

  1. Enter 79516.
  2. In the text message type UNO911 (your message here). An example of the text content might be: UNO911 possible car break-in west of DSC
  3. “UNO911” is UNO's campus identifier. It is essential that you provide a space between UNO911 and your text message for the message to get routed to UNO Public Safety.

This message is sent directly to Public Safety and appropriate action will be taken immediately.

Remember

Emergency calls can still be made to the UNO Department of Public Safety at 402.554.2911 or the Omaha Police and Fire Departments at 911.
