SUNY Oswego will conduct a simultaneous test of the college's emergency communication systems on Wednesday, Feb. 20, 2019.

At approximately 10:20 a.m. this coming Wednesday, the college will send messages via NY-Alert, the college website, campus phones including classroom and conference phones, teaching station computers, emergency broadcast system outdoor speakers, and digital signage. 

The timing of the alert – at the beginning of 10:20 a.m. classes on Wednesday – is intended to fully test the enhanced notification system, while minimizing disruption to classes in session. 

If you have not signed up to receive NY-Alert messages, please consider signing up before Wednesday’s test.  For those students, faculty and staff who are already registered, we encourage you to check your settings (e.g., phone number, cell provider, additional email addresses, etc.).

  • Students may register by indicating their preferences through myOswego under personal information.
  • Employees may register or update existing information by logging on to the employee portal on the SUNY System Administration website where they are able to enter their contact information.


Thank you for your participation and understanding as we initiate this very important test of our emergency communication systems.
