Be Prepared

We are all part of one community at Brandeis, and by working together, we can ensure a safe place for all.

The top two things you can do to prepare yourself for an emergency are:

Register for the Brandeis Emergency Notification System

University leadership can notify community members about emergency situations on campus through the Brandeis Emergency Notification System (BENS). Sign up for BENS so that you will receive text and voice messages during campus emergencies.

Know what to do in case of an emergency

Being prepared for what to do in case of a major criminal occurrence, bomb threat, fire, hazardous materials release, natural disaster, power outage or suspicious object helps keep the Brandeis community safe. Familiarize yourself with emergency procedures before they occur.
