Posted in

Is your family signed up to receive Panther Alerts? As of Fall 2008, FIU students, faculty, staff, parents of students and other members of the community were eligible to sign up for instant emergency alerts through Florida International University's Panther Alerts text messaging system.

Using Inspiron Logistics' Wireless Emergency Notification System (WENS), FIU officials have the ability to send students and employees important updates during emergencies.
