Timely Warnings
Updated
by AU Staff
Alliance University is obligated to issue timely warnings of Clery Act crimes occurring within relevant geography that represent a serious or continuing threat to students and employees (subject to exceptions when potentially compromising law enforcement efforts).
Authorization
The use of the Alliance Alert System is authorized when an impending or occurring hazard on or off campus may impact the safety and security of the Alliance University community and timely notification is necessary for the community to take protective action. In the event that a situation arises, that, in the judgment of the Plan Executive and Director (Chief Finacial Officer), the Campus Safety Coordinator (Director of Facilities),VP and the Dean of Students, or the Operations Plan Coordinator (Director of Auxiliary Services), constitutes an ongoing or continuing threat, a campus wide “timely warning” will be issued. The warning will be issued through the college e-mail system to students, faculty, and staff. Depending on the particular circumstances of the crimes, especially in all situations that could pose an immediate threat to the community and individuals, Alliance University will use one or any combination of the following methods to issue a timely warning:
- Alliance University E-mail system
- Alliance Alert Emergency Notification System,
- Post a notice on the campus-wide Safety and Security Web Page at www.nyack.edu/site/safety-and-security/, providing the university with more immediate notification, or
- Transmit on the digital signage displays at the appropriate campus.
- Postings and notifications in buildings
- Alliance University Emergency Phone lines
- Alliance University Emergency Closing Notification Facebook Group
In order to comply with the recent guidance concerning “Timely Warnings” required under the Clery Act, the Alliance Alert system will also be used to inform the Alliance University community of serious crimes involving a threat to life (such as robberies, sexual assaults, aggravated assaults, etc.) that have occurred on campus, in “contiguous areas” as defined by the Clery Act, or in other areas frequented by Alliance University affiliated persons within a one-half mile distance of the campus (or farther distance on a case-by-case basis). In these cases the notification process begins when a crime is reported directly to Alliance University Campus Safety or Alliance University Campus Safety is informed of the crime by a law enforcement agency. A copy of AUAlert messages sent in compliance with the “Timely Warnings” requirement is maintained in the Alliance University Campus Safety files.
Alliance University will, without delay, and taking into account the safety of the community, determine the content of the notification and initiate the notification system, unless issuing a notification will, in the professional judgment of responsible authorities, compromise efforts to assist a victim or to contain, respond to, or otherwise mitigate the emergency.
Delivery Methods
Delivery methods are the modes of communication through which the Alliance Alert System broadcasts messages to the notification groups. The currently activated delivery methods include text messaging and email. The delivery method(s) used will vary depending on the nature of the hazard and the purpose of the messaging. Following are samples of Timely warnings and possible delivery methods:
- Imminent or continuing life safety hazard to the Alliance University campus (such as a severe storm, active shooter or hostile intruder, HAZMAT release, suspicious device, etc.). - All methods
- Serious crimes involving a threat to life (such as robberies, sexual assaults, aggravated assaults, etc.) that have occurred on campus or in areas contiguous to the campus as defined by the Clery Act. - All methods
- Crimes involving a threat to life (such as robberies, sexual assaults, aggravated assaults, kidnapping, etc.) involving Alliance University affiliated persons that have occurred off campus in areas beyond the “contiguous areas” but frequented by Alliance University personnel (within one-half mile of the campus or farther distances on a case-by-case basis). – All methods
- Crimes involving a threat to life (such as robberies, sexual assaults, aggravated assaults, kidnapping, etc.) that did not directly involve Alliance University affiliated persons, but could reasonably pose a threat to Alliance University personnel that have occurred off campus in areas beyond the “contiguous areas” but frequented by Alliance University personnel (within one-half mile of the campus or further distances on a case-by-case basis). – All methods
- Other crimes for which notification is required by the Clery Act (such as a continuing series of property crimes like burglaries, car thefts, etc.) that occur on campus or in the “contiguous areas.” – Email
