The second test will be in the afternoon and will activate the entire notification system, including text, email, desktop alerts, emergency beacons, social media and the web. During the second test, all faculty and staff should receive emails and text alerts if they are registered to receive them. Some students also might receive email and texts during the second test.\n\nThe text message will read:\n\nTEST TEST TEST This is a test of the MU Mass Alert and Warning System. In an actual emergency more information would be provided. TEST TEST TEST\n\nThe email message will read:\n\nThis is a test of the MU Mass Alert and Warning System. The University of Missouri conducts periodic activations to test our entire range of alert and warning systems. The safety and security of our students, faculty, staff and visitors is the top priority of Mizzou and we encourage everyone to fully participate and take this test seriously by reviewing emergency plans and procedures. Mass email is just one of the multiple systems by which you can be notified in the event of any emergency. Refer to mualert.missouri.edu for additional details on any emergency condition that may arise.\n\nIt's important that all members of the MU community are registered to receive these alerts as this is one tool we use to help keep our campus safe.\n\nThe upgraded system will save MU approximately $24,000 annually and will provide more flexibility when sending alert messages, Evans said.",
