New Ringtone

Hello,

I'm watching the news right now, and there are new responses to the tragedy at VA Tech. Whenever something truly horrifying like this happens, the response is to change the system that failed us, and that is a good thing, although it's so very bittersweet.

This time, a free text message will alert students about danger on their campus (currently in place in Delaware). This will hopefully be more effective than emails, which many people don't check frequently, because the cell phone will likely be with the person at all times.
