Urgent request to update emergency contact information for FOXALERT
For the past few years, George Fox has utilized FOXALERT as a method of notifying the Newberg campus faculty, staff and students in the event of a campus-wide emergency. Each semester we update the FOXALERT database with your current contact information that we download from MyGFU. For this system to work, it is vital that you take a few minutes to update your contact information.
If you have not done so recently, please update your contact information by signing into MyGFU. Following are the steps to take:
- Login to your MyGFU account
- Click on SELF SERVICE
- Click on CAMPUS PERSONAL INFORMATION
- Click on PHONE NUMBERS
- On the PHONE TYPE pick list, choose the phone type you are registering.
- Type in your contact information
- Click SAVE
- If you need to add a number, first click on ADD A PHONE NUMBER
- Make sure you click SAVE after each change
In the near future, we will test FOXALERT as well as give you information on opting in or out to receive text messages. Your safety is very important to us. Please work with us to provide you with timely information should an emergency arise.
If you have questions, please contact Jere Witherspoon (Student Life) at jwitherspoon@georgefox.edu.
Sincerely,
Brad Lau, VP of Student Life
