Carroll puts top priority on the safety and well-being of our campus community. Our Public Safety Officers are expertly-trained professionals who are highly visible and patrol campus full-time, 24/7, 365 days a year. In addition, our dispatch center is always staffed and ready to assist. The Department of Public Safety works in close partnership with local first responders to ensure the security of our students, faculty, staff and surrounding neighborhood. We’re committed to excellence and building trust through leadership in all we do.
PioALERT is the emergency notification system that enables Carroll University to inform members of the campus community quickly in the event of an emergency. PioALERT uses various communication methods, including text messaging, email and voicemail. Messages will be brief, stating the nature of the situation and suggested action. PioALERT will never be used for promotions and/or marketing communications. Carroll University does not sell or share your information with third parties. Information is kept in strict confidence for university use only.
A major part of this system is the use of text messages to alert for immediate life-threatening situations that are actively occurring.
Please note: To receive text alerts, your cell phone must be able to accept text messages. Normal messaging fees might apply for these messages, depending on your cell phone plan.
