The Emergency Text Alert System is used to send alerts in the event of an emergency on the Fort Collins campus. The system is only used during a safety emergency on the physical grounds of campus or unexpected closing of the campus, such as a snow day.

Alerts are sent when there is an ongoing emergency on campus or near campus that presents a threat to the safety of campus. Other situations that may prompt an alerts is when an incident occurs off campus but near the university, and the threat may be moving toward the university (such as a suspect). If a situation is quickly resolved (a suspect is arrested, for example), no alerts are sent. Alerts are not sent by the university for incidents in the larger Fort Collins community. LETA is a local alert system for off campus incidents used by Fort Collins and Larimer County Sherrif’s Office.
