This Week at Pellissippi State
 
Sign up now for new emergency alerts system

How is Pellissippi Alerts changing?


Effective immediately, the process for enrolling for Pellissippi Alerts, the College's text alert system, has changed. You will no longer be able to sign up through the Pellissippi Alerts link at the bottom of the College's home page. Now all faculty, staff and current students will automatically receive emergency notices through their Pellissippi State email account. All faculty, staff and students will receive text alerts on their phones once they provide an up-to-date cell phone number through myPellissippi. Students will be asked to provide their cell number during the registration process; faculty and staff will be prompted to add a cell number when they log in to myPellissippi.

 

What kinds of messages will I receive?

 

You will only receive emergency notifications through this system. Those notifications will include weather alerts, College closings and incident alerts.

 

How does the enrollment process work?


Students enrolling in classes for fall 2015 will be prompted to enter their cell phone number when they register in myPellissippi. Faculty and staff must add their cell number to their personal information in myPellissippi.
