How Universities and Colleges Are Using W.A.R.N. Every Day

• Boost student performance with W.A.R.N. by using it for "troubled student" notification.
• Improve community safety by instantly alerting on-campus students, university employees and local public safety agencies to suspicious incidents or other security- related issues, including bomb threats, campus violence and abductions.
• Aid practice and real emergency evacuation efforts by instantly and simultaneously informing on-campus students and employees.
• Reduce drop-out rates by notifying parents in real-time that a student needs parental assistance.
• Raise parent participation through timely communication with parents about upcoming school functions and events.
• Improve parental relationship with regular student progress reports.
• Inform parents of unscheduled closes due to weather or other factors.
• Given the small size of some communities, rumors can surface quickly when there's an incident at the university or the community where the university is located. To prevent false or exaggerated accounts from spreading, a quickly implemented notification will inform parents precisely what happened and that it was a minor incident.
