Emergency Outdoor Broadcast System The outdoor broadcast system was completed and tested in 2009. The system includes seven, 40-foot metal poles mounted with speakers placed throughout the Ferris Big Rapids campus to provide maximum coverage. The system gives University officials the ability to broadcast emergency messages across campus. The emergency outdoor broadcast system is tested on a regular basis in conjunction with siren testing with the City of Big Rapids. This testing is conducted on the 1 st Saturday of each month at 1pm. Officer MM M VOIP Phones/Classroom Emergency Phones The first phase of a three phase project to install voice-over internet protocol phones into classrooms was completed. In conjunction with the IT department, 176 phones were installed in 2009. They are used to quickly send critical information such as time-sensitive safety issues or notifications of campus closings due to weather or other disruptions. An audible alert will sound and text messages will display on the phone. Novell In-Class Messaging In the early months of 2009, a chat client called “Groupwise Messenger” was installed in all Smart classroom teaching stations on the Big Rapids FSU campus. The program is being used as an emergency broadcast notification method. When an emergency message is sent using this program, a pop-up box appears on the computer screen with emergency information. An audible alert accompanies the message. To ensure that the system is working properly and to familiarize users, two tests of this system are conducted per semester. Bluelight Phones Additional bluelight phones were installed to provide further access to emergency services across the campus. Thirty-nine phones are currently operational. The fortieth and final bluelight phone has been installed with the completion of the new Optometry Building. City of Big Rapids Fire 27
