We recommend that you save 89361 and 87844 into your cell phone as a contact called “SAFE-U.” This way, when you receive an emergency text message from the U, “SAFE-U.” will appear as the sender.
The link to the SAFE-U Alerts site is located on the MyU My Info tab or you can click on the SAFE-U link above.
The safety of students, faculty, staff, and visitors is our top priority. That’s why, across the University of Minnesota Twin Cities campus, we engage in wide-ranging safety efforts. And it’s why we partner with local communities to help keep our off-campus neighborhoods safe. In all of these efforts, everyone has a role to play. Here you will find the information you need to help maintain our U of M culture of safety.

In accordance with the University's official Emergency Operations Plan, the University of Minnesota Twin Cities campus, portions of campus, or building(s) will be closed in the event that a situation poses a serious risk to the health, safety, or security of the University community, research animals, or other mission critical assets.
Faculty, staff, and students will be notified as quickly as practical through internal and external communications systems, including, as appropriate, the University's e-mail, SAFE-U, tone alert radios, and home page, as well as broader external media resources (television, radio), once a decision is made to execute a closure or cancel classes.
Classes are only cancelled if the University of Minnesota announces a closure. Class cancellation due to weather is not at the discretion of the course instructor.
In the case of inclement weather, instructors may also send email notification updates to the course rosters so please makes sure to check your email.
