Star Alert

StarAlert is only used for campus emergencies or other major events that interrupt regular classes and campus activities. You will not receive messages about bookstore promotions or overdue library books from StarAlert. You should expect up to one test message per month. All other messages will be for actual emergency situations.

In the past, severe weather interrupting classes or campus activities were the most common situation requiring an emergency message. We have had very few situations on campus that required emergency notifications. Nonetheless, StarAlert is only one of three emergency notification methods the college can use in an emergency. Two other methods for delivering emergency notifications inside buildings and classrooms are a public address broadcasting system and campus telephones.

There is no need to cancel. The records in the StarAlert system are updated periodically to disable accounts of individuals who are not currently enrolled. If you want us to take action sooner than we might otherwise act, students may contact the Marketing Office to have your IHCC StarAlert account disabled.

StarAlert messages provide a way to make individuals aware of a situation. Whenever possible the college web site will display additional information and details, or you may receive follow-up messages from StarAlert.

If you have questions about the college's emergency procedures or the use of StarAlert messages please contact security@inverhills.edu.
