Bethel University’s emergency notification system, called Bethel Alert, allows the university to communicate with students and employees quickly in the event of an emergency.

• A Bethel Alert will be sent only to inform you of an imminent emergency or other significant event.

• The Bethel Alert system will send messages to students’ and employees’ Bethel email addresses and up to six phone numbers that they wish to provide. The Bethel Alert System can also send a text message to a user’s cell phone.

• Messages will be automatically sent to campus phone numbers for employees.

• Test messages will be sent approximately once per year.

• An FAQ is available at bethel.edu/bethel-alert/faq to answer further questions.
