University Alerts and Technology Alerts

University alerts will appear on the homepage of the university.

NU Alert

Northeastern has implemented NU ALERT, a service that allows University officials to reach all students and staff with time-sensitive information during unforeseen events or emergencies. The system uses voice, e-mail, and text messaging to broadcast pertinent information and, when appropriate, provide directions to those in the affected area(s). Visit the NU Alert page for information on how to provide your current contact information so you will receive alerts.

University Health and Counseling Services

The UHCS website provides current information on prevention, symptoms, care, and community updates on the H1N1 virus and seasonal influenza. The website will announce the dates, times, and sites of UHCS influenza clinics and includes more information on steps to take if you do become ill with influenza.

Blackboard

To check availability of Blackboard log into the Blackboard website. Information about Blackboard availability is listed in the Announcements section.

If the Blackboard site is unavailable, you may also check the myNEU site for alerts about system-wide outages, including outages of the Blackboard site.
