Campus Alert System

The Campus Alert system  is an emergency notification tool for the public universities governed by the SD Board of Regents. The system helps us notify students, staff, and faculty of any emergencies that occur on or near campus locations. Emergencies may include, but not be limited to, weather alerts, school closings, fire, or criminal activity.

Students are automatically a part of this system through their USD-assigned e-mail address.
  • An e-mail is sent to a USD e-mail account with information about how to register for the alert system.
  • During registration, students may opt to register personal telephone numbers, personal e-mail addresses, or other personal electronic devices to receive these Campus Alerts. 
  • You assign priorities to each of the above; your priority one device(s) will be notified first, followed by your second, and so on.
  • Once you acknowledge the alert, further notifications will not be sent.
