Main and Wayne campuses close at 2:30 p.m. for road conditions

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.

  Final assessment

  25 of 25 passes found S present (25 present / 0 absent).

  Who is sending the alert and who is responding. People act faster on a message from a clearly identifiable, credible sender, such as a named department, the police, or a branded alert system, than on an anonymous notice. A branded signature counts.

• Locationpresent25/25

  Final assessment

  25 of 25 passes found L present (25 present / 0 absent).

  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.

• Guidanceabsent0/25

  Final assessment

  0 of 25 passes found G present (0 present / 25 absent).

  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.

  See all 25 individual reads

  1. absent: Wording "will close today" is a schedule change, not a protective instruction.
  2. absent: This wording only announces close and reopen times and never gives a protective instruction such as staying off the roads.
  3. absent: Absent because the text only states when campuses close and reopen and gives no protective step such as stay off the roads.
  4. absent: The protective instruction is missing; saying campuses will close and later reopen is operational status, not a safety step.

  11. absent: Recipients get a close and reopen schedule rather than a protective instruction such as stay off the roads.
  12. absent: Hours because closing and reopening campuses is operational status, not a protective instruction.
  13. absent: A close and reopen schedule is operational status and never tells people to stay off the roads or take another protective step.
  14. absent: Campus closure and a later reopen time are operational status, not protective guidance.

  17. absent: Here campus closure is an operations notice, not an order to stay off roads, shelter, or take other protective action.
  18. absent: Close and reopen times are schedule status, not a protective instruction cue such as stay off the roads.
  19. absent: Coding guidance absent because close and reopen wording is operational status, not a protective order such as stay off the roads.

  21. absent: On this pass announcing that campuses will close is an operational status, not a shelter, avoid, or other protective order.
  22. absent: Close and reopen wording is operational status, not a protective step (telling people to avoid travel would).

  24. absent: Closing and later reopening campuses is an operations notice, not an instruction such as stay off the roads.
  25. absent: Closing and later reopening the campuses is an operations timetable, not a protective instruction such as stay off the roads, so the vote is absent

• Impactabsent10/25

  Final assessment

  10 of 25 passes found I present (10 present / 15 absent).

  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. absent: Phrase "will close today" reports operations without injury, crashes, or other severity.
  2. absent: This wording never states crashes, injuries, or other severity, and campus closing is only an operations timetable beyond the road conditions name.
  3. present: Present because both campuses closing until Sunday midnight is stated as the operational consequence of the road conditions.
  4. present: The impact is that both campuses will close, a consequence of the road conditions rather than the hazard name alone.
  5. present: Closing both campuses until Sunday states the operational consequence of the road conditions.
  6. present: Flags the campus closures as the consequence of the worsening road conditions.
  7. absent: Injury, crashes, or other severity is not described in this text beyond the closure.
  8. absent: Crashes, icy danger, or other severity would have counted; road conditions name the hazard, and a campus close does not describe harm.
  9. absent: I read campus hours only, with no crash, injury, or other severity, so the road conditions name alone is not I.
  10. absent: Does not count as consequence or severity because worsening road conditions name the hazard without crashes, injuries, or other harm.
  11. present: Recipients are told both campuses will close, a consequence beyond naming the road conditions.
  12. present: Shutdown because both campuses closing is a consequence beyond the road conditions name.
  13. present: A consequence is both campuses closing, which goes beyond naming the road conditions.
  14. absent: Road conditions name the hazard itself, not a crash injury or severity outcome.
  15. absent: From the wording road conditions are the hazard name and the close or reopen lines are operational status, not injury, damage, or extra severity.
  16. present: Both campuses closing until Sunday midnight states operational severity beyond the road conditions name.
  17. present: Here closing both campuses until Sunday midnight is an operational consequence beyond naming road conditions.
  18. absent: Campus closing is operational and supplies no extra severity cue beyond the road conditions label.
  19. absent: Coding impact absent because campus closing is schedule status and no crash, injury, or other severity is stated beyond the road conditions label.
  20. absent: Nothing states injury, crashes, or other severity beyond the road conditions and the campus closure.
  21. absent: On this pass no crash, injury, or other consequence is stated, and naming road conditions is not impact.
  22. absent: Worsening roads and a campus close do not state crashes, injury, or other severity (a 1 would name that harm).
  23. present: Something states that both campuses will close as a consequence of the road conditions, not the road conditions name alone.
  24. absent: Road conditions are the hazard phrasing, and a campus closure does not by itself state crashes, harm, or how severe the roads are.
  25. absent: The text never states crashes, injuries, or other severity beyond the road conditions and the closure, so the vote is absent
