Safety and Emergency Notifications

The University of Denver is concerned for the safety of employees, students, and the public on its property. It is, therefore, the responsibility of all employees to be alert to hazards that can endanger individuals on University property and report such hazards to Campus Safety at 303-871-3000 and/or other appropriate administrative units.

The University uses an emergency notification system, DU Alerts, to alert the campus of immediate threats to the health and safety of the campus community and campus closures. The University sends all members of the DU community an email when the system is utilized.  In addition, members of the DU community can register a mobile device to receive text messages and/or a telephone number to receive a call with an automated message when the system is used. Employees can set their notification preferences in myDU by visiting this link.

The University requests that all employees provide emergency contact information, to aid in the communications process, in the event of an emergency.
