The University of Missouri will soon be able to communicate with its students and faculty instantly via cell phone thanks to a new partnership with 3n, which stands for National Notification Network, a mass notification system provider, according to a press release issued by the University of Missouri System.
The InstaCom Campus Alert System will enable the university to send messages to the campus communities via several communication devices including phones, e-mail, text messaging, instant messaging, paper, fax and BlackBerrys. The system will be installed on all four campus within the next couple of weeks.
The University of Missouri is committed to providing a safe and secure environment to learn, live and work, said Dr. Gordon H. Lamb, Interim President of the University of Missouri in the press release. By partnering with 3n for its mass notification services, the university builds on that commitment in a significant and strategic way. This will help us to quickly and efficiently communicate with our students, faculty, staff and others using an array of technologies.
