CANYON, TEXAS -- LLC announced today that West Texas A&M University has selected ActiveCrawl RSS as its campus-wide desktop solution for emergency notifications.
Deployed through e2Campus, the leading unified emergency notification system for education, ActiveCrawl RSS allows campus officials to send emergency alerts to the computer desktops of all students, faculty and staff via text crawls that scroll along the bottom of the screen.
"With more than 8,600 students, faculty and staff on our campus, security and safety is very important to West Texas A&M," said James Webb, WTAMU's chief information officer. "We believe desktop alerting is an efficient method to reach people during any type of situation since the campus population uses and tends to be near their computers and laptops for extended periods of time.
Through its integration with e2Campus, ActiveCrawl RSS provides us with an automatic way to send out desktop alerts simultaneously with other platform alerts. It's a major part of our multimodal approach to campus alerting and security."
ActiveCrawl RSS is part of SpectraRep's ActiveAccessTM suite of solutions for emergency alerting to the computer desktop.
