Students, faculty and staff not signed up for UGAAlert had their information added to the system Thursday evening.
According to an e-mail sent over the Archnews listserv, the University's Emergency Preparedness and Communications Committee recommended mandatory enrollment in UGAAlert, the main emergency notification system at the University.
"This system will only be used for life threatening emergencies requiring immediate action," wrote Tim Burgess, senior vice president for finance and administration.
Students' listed local numbers and University e-mail addresses were placed into the system. Faculty and staff had office numbers and e-mail addresses added.
Students may remove themselves by checking the "opt out" box at www.ugaalert.uga.edu.
