Rochester Institute of Technology Enhances Campus Safety Initiatives with Mass Notification System

GLENDALE, Calif. and HENRIETTA, New York -–[EMERGENCY NOTIFICATION NEWS]-- August 15, 2007 – The Rochester Institute of Technology (RIT) selected 3n (National Notification Network), a global mass notification system provider, as its campus-wide emergency alert system to communicate with RIT’s students, faculty and staff instantly in any emergency.

“Safety and security at our university is of paramount importance,” said RIT President Bill Destler. “We are constantly vigilant about improving safety procedures and policies at RIT. Our community can be assured that we will use the 3n mass notification system and couple it with well-planned, tested, and reviewed continuity and contingency plans. The partnership with 3n adds additional effective communication channels in RIT’s layered approach to disseminate information.”

RIT will be working with 3n to quickly implement the 3n mass notification system campus-wide and anticipate it will be fully operational prior to the start of the Fall 2007 semester.
