To stay informed during your next visit, we encourage you to sign up for SMS emergency notifications (also known as Hawk Alerts) from the University of Iowa. This service provides you with timely notifications about campus emergencies, safety instructions, and information about where to look for situation updates. 

Guests can opt in to receive Hawk Alert text messages using the following options:

• One week: Text HAWK4WEEK to 67283
• One Year: Text HAWK4YEAR to 67283

Though you will automatically be removed from the system after the timeframe you select, you can opt out at any time by texting “STOP” to the same phone number. 

Standard message and data rates may apply.
