How the first alert is built
To check this alert, Claude (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.

Final assessment
Unanimous: University Police and the Community Safety Advisory identify the university as sender.
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.

Hazardpresent25/25
Final assessment
All reads agree: the alert names a specific threat, sexual assaults by a male student.
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
Unanimous: specific locations are given, residence halls on campus.
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.

Guidancepresent19/25

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.

Timepresent25/25
Final assessment
Unanimous: a specific date range is stated, between Sept. 27 and Nov. 15.

Impactpresent25/25
Final assessment
Yes; unanimous that the sexual-assault warning conveys harm to a person.
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.
