Did You Know: Rave Alerts

September marks National Campus Safety Awareness Month and National Preparedness Month. At Case Western Reserve University, we are committed to ensuring the safety of our campus community—and throughout this month, The Daily will highlight a few of the many ways the university works to achieve this. For more resources, visit case.edu/publicsafety.

Rave is the university’s mass notification system, which is how Case Western Reserve can contact you in the event of an emergency. The university attempts to use Rave alerts sparingly so that when they do arrive—via text, email, phone, social media, the Rave Guardian app or the university’s website—you pay attention and take necessary action to stay safe.

Some examples of emergency situations in which we might send a Rave alert include:

  • Active aggressor on or near campus
  • Fire
  • Severe weather (including cancellation or delay of classes)
  • Hazardous materials spills
  • Mass power outage

All Case Western Reserve University faculty, staff and students are automatically opted in to Rave alerts using their CWRU email address and campus phone number. However, we need to make sure we are contacting you in the way that works for you. Please log in to getrave.com/login/cwru using your network ID, then update your mobile number and preferred email address.
