Timely Warnings

In the event that a situation arises, on or off campus, that the Chief of Police determines may constitute an ongoing threat, a campus wide “timely warning” will be issued. The warning will be issued through the university campus email system to students, faculty, staff, and the UT Dallas Mercury newspaper, if appropriate. Depending on the particular circumstances of the crime, especially in all situations that could pose an immediate threat to the community and individuals, the University may also post a notice on the UT Dallas homepage and the Police Department website providing the University community with more immediate notification. In such instances, a copy of the notice will also be posted at the residential apartments and in buildings across campus when appropriate.At the Archer Center, if a timely warning is required, the Archer Program coordinator shall use the notification phone tree to notify all students. In addition, a written notice of the warning shall be posted at the Archer Center Building as well as the student housing.
