Message elements

How the first alert is built

To check this alert, SuperGrok Heavy 4.5 (an AI) read it in full 25 separate times, independently. Each read decided whether the message answers each of the six questions and gave a short reason. A final reviewer then weighed all 25 and wrote the plain-English verdict you see when you open a row. The score (for example 22/25) is how many reads agreed; the 25 individual reads are tucked underneath if you want to check them.

  • Hazardabsent6/25

    Final assessment

    Campuses are not closed; they remain open with a delayed arrival.

    What the threat actually is. A complete warning names the specific danger, such as a shooter, a fire, a tornado, or a gas leak, rather than a vague emergency, because people decide what to do based on what they are facing.

  • Locationpresent25/25

    Final assessment

    Liberal leave is explicitly in effect for non-emergency employees.

    Where the threat is. Saying whether danger is in a specific building, a part of campus, or area-wide lets people judge their own proximity and choose a safe direction. Without a where, a warning is hard to act on precisely.

  • Guidancepresent17/25

    Final assessment

    GU campuses in DC are open and operating under modified conditions.

    The protective action to take. A clear, specific instruction, such as shelter in place, evacuate, avoid the area, or run-hide-fight, drives faster and more correct protective behavior than describing the threat alone.

  • Timepresent23/25

    Final assessment

    Delayed arrival of 10am is specified for 2/6.

    When the message applies. A timestamp, the word now or immediately, or a phrase like until further notice tells the reader whether the danger is current and how quickly to act.

  • Impactabsent12/25

    Final assessment

    Instructional continuity is mentioned as support for the delay, not as a standalone full instructional stop flag.

    What the hazard could do to the people in its path. Beyond naming the threat, a complete warning conveys its potential consequences or severity, such as that a tornado can level buildings or that a leak could be explosive, so recipients grasp how much danger they are in. Research on warning message content finds that a concrete impact statement helps people personalize their risk and act sooner.

    See all 25 individual reads
    1. present: Instructional continuity and liberal leave in effect, with delayed arrival, are operational consequences.
    2. absent: Instructional continuity and lib leave are status lines, not hazard severity or harm.
    3. absent: Nothing conveys consequence or how serious conditions are.

    9. absent: No severity or consequence language appears beyond open/delay status.
    10. absent: The message does not convey what any hazard could do to people or property.
    11. absent: Open or delay status alone is not hazard consequence or severity language.
    12. present: Delayed arrival and instructional cont/lib leave describe how normal operations are altered.
    13. absent: No statement of consequence severity or resulting harm appears.
    14. absent: The wording does not state consequences, impacts, or severity of any incident.
    15. present: Instructional continuity is referenced so academic operations continue.
    16. present: Instructional continuity is noted as continuing despite the delay.
    17. present: Instructional continuity is listed as still in effect.

    22. absent: Open or delayed-arrival status alone does not convey consequence or severity of a hazard.
    23. present: instructional cont/lib leave in effect
