Add your contact info to the FoxAlert emergency notification system
Have you wondered how you would be notified in the event of an emergency on the Newberg campus?
The answer is FOXALERT.
FOXALERT is a communication service from Blackboard Connect Inc., to deliver emergency information to students and staff.
GFU has implemented the service to provide us with the ability to reach students and staff members with information and updates during unforeseen events or emergencies, within minutes, through phone calls, e-mails and/or text messages.
In the unlikely event of an emergency you would be potentially notified through three different methods:
1. Cell phone
2. E-mail
3. Text message
HOWEVER, for either of these methods to work YOU must enter your personal contact information in your MYGFU account.
Here’s how you do it!
– Â Â Â Login to your MYGFU account

– Â Â Â Type in your contact information
– Â Â Â Click SAVE
– Â Â Â If you need to add a number, first click on ADD A PHONE NUMBER

When contacted by PHONE the number you will see is: 503-554-2007.
Your safety is very important to us. Â Thank you for your participation!
