Campus Alert Systems

MidAmerica Nazarene University has established an emergency Campus Alert System messaging service for members of our community including faculty, staff, students and their parents. This method of notification is a supplement to the University’s methods of issuing timely warnings in the event of a security threat on or near our campus. In addition, this messaging service will only be used in the event of an emergency; or to advise of changes in scheduling due to severe weather; or to perform periodic testing of the system. 

Note:

The MNU.edu e-mail address of all students, faculty and staff is automatically entered into the system but you must still take action to enroll yourself and further to register and activate your mobile phone (or alternative e-mail addresses). If it’s your first time entering the system and you have not already established a password you will need to do the following:

  1. Log in entering your full MNU email address, then click on “forgot password”.
  2. A link will be sent to your e-mail which will let you reset your password.
  3. Once your password is reset, go back to the login page and enter your full MNU email address and password.
  4. Add your mobile number. A 4-digit code will be texted to you.
  5. Enter the 4-digit code to confirm your cell phone number and proceed with the instructions given to complete the validation process.
