Sign Up to Receive Emergency Weather Alerts for This Campus
Ohio State's Emergency Management office has announced a new service available to each campus community.  Students, faculty and staff can now sign up to receive a text message and phone call on their cell phone when severe weather is threatening our campus.  To learn more or register for this free service, go to http://go.osu.edu/weatheralert.
-- > Contact: emergencymanagement at dps.ohio-state.edu<mailto:emergencymanagement at dps.ohio-state.edu>

How the service works:
If there is severe weather that will affect the campus, you will receive a notice over your cell phone informing you of the severe weather warning and what you should do.  This will only inform you of severe weather affecting the campus, so if you are away from the campus you cannot depend on it to inform you of severe weather at your current location.  Total time to sign up is about 1 minute.

Items needed include snacks, such as: chips, pretzels, nuts, jerky, candies, cookies, gum, individual drink mix packets or canisters of drink mixes, etc.  Toiletries like baby wipes, toothbrushes, toothpaste, razors, shaving cream, cotton swabs, dental floss, cotton pads, feminine hygiene products, nail clippers, bar soaps, deodorants etc.  Other items you may want to donate are coupons for the above items,  gift cards, cash or check donations to purchase additional items that have not been donated, zip lock bags for bagging small items, magazines, books, DVD's, MP3 cards, apple gift cards for downloads, phone cards so they can call home.

Due to certain troop restrictions stationed overseas, we ask that no pornography or alcohol be donated, as we would not be able to send it.  Also, no chocolate please.
