ALL ACADEMICS, STAFF, AND STUDENTS AT UC SAN DIEGO (Including UC San Diego Health)
Required Test of the UC San Diego Emergency Notification System (Triton Alert)
On June 27, UC San Diego will send a test Triton Alert emergency notification to all ucsd.edu accounts. Students, faculty, and staff will also receive test text messages if they have provided a cell phone number for this delivery method. Users can update their emergency contact information by going to http://go.ucsd.edu/2dyFnLp. We will also send the message via Twitter, Instagram, and Facebook. Follow us at @UCSDTritonAlert.
Triton Alert emails and text messages are delivered through the use of an outside vendor named Everbridge. The Triton Alert email will come from “Triton Alert <noreply@everbridge.net>". The Triton Alert text will come from 893-61, or 888777. The message may include a weblink that starts with “https://evb.gg/....” which will include the full Triton Alert message, since a standard text message is limited by character count. It is helpful to recognize these addresses as a message from UC San Diego.
Anticipating and planning for crisis situations minimizes possible injuries and property damage during a campuswide emergency, and eases resumption of normal business activity. Every UC San Diego department must have an Emergency Action Plan (EAP), which provides detailed information about the evacuation procedures for individual buildings. Take the time to familiarize yourself with your EAP before an emergency occurs. A summary of the University’s emergency response and evacuation procedures is available at;
This notice is being provided to you to comply with the Jeanne Clery Disclosure of Campus Security Policy and Campus Crime Statistics Act (Clery Act) which requires annual tests of our campus emergency notification system.
