Ohio University officials said they were satisfied with improved results of the latest test of the emergency text messaging system last week.
The message was sent to the 4,306 subscribers and 129 messages, or three percent, did not reach the cell phone, said David Hopka, assistant vice president for Safety and Risk Management.
We'd like to get 100 percent effectiveness
but realistically that is not going to be the case Hopka said. - so we're pretty satisfied
Hopka said.
After the first test Fall Quarter, OIT updated the registration Web site so that it will send a text message to people after they have signed up to verify that they submitted the correct information.-
