Emergency Procedures

Marian University’s Ancilla College has partnered with the CampusShield app to increase your safety on and off campus. To be promptly informed of any and all campus emergencies, safety concerns and weather announcements, all students are asked to download the CampusShield app on their phones and devices.  This is a free app and is available through the Apple App Store or the Google Play Store. Allow location services and connect to wi-fi for the best results.

Additional features of the CampusShield app include Submit a Tip (anonymously), Campus Map and Safety Timer.  Use of the Safety Timer allow you to choose contacts and set a timer.  The contacts you select will have access to your location until you signal you feel safe.  If your timer expires, your contacts will be notified you may need assistance.

NOTIFICATION will be delivered by Campus Shield, text message, emails, loud speaker announcements.
