This article demonstrates how to add/update or verify your Campus Alert information and your

Emergency Contacts while registering for classes in CAMS.

• Campus Alert is the information on file to contact you, the individual, in the event of an emergency on campus (e.g., weather emergencies, active shooter, lockdown, etc.).

• Emergency Contacts is the contact information for your next of kin in the event something should happen to you, and we need to get in touch with them on your behalf (e.g., injury, illness, accident, etc.)
