Warnings or alerts will be disseminated as appropriate through the college telephone alert system, the campus intercom system, two way radios, word of mouth from college officials, the campus-wide email system; student email system, electronic bulletin boards, flyers or posters, and notices posted on the college website at https://www.martincc.edu/.

Analysis
Reading the policy
Martin Community College is a small public community college in Williamston, North Carolina. Its 2025 ASR is institution-specific in naming MCC Administrative Services as the without-delay decision and activation authority and in listing a dense local channel stack (telephone alert, intercom, two-way radios, word of mouth, campus-wide and student email, electronic bulletin boards, flyers/posters, website).
That combination of a named campus office and multi-modal delivery is what this record captures beyond generic Clery continuing-threat language.
