“The e2Campus system is the most powerful tool we have to notify people in the case of life-threatening incidents on campus,” said John Hauser, UNMC’s safety manager. “It reaches people wherever they are. I can’t urge people strongly enough to subscribe to this service.
“It’s a life-saving investment.”
