LSU Update

January 12, 2008

With respect to the events that occurred on the LSU campus on 12/14/07, following is a statement from clearTXT regarding mobile message delivery:

clearTXT and LSU have investigated why some members of the LSU community did not receive their emergency text message. The issue resulted from a misunderstanding between LSU and clearTXT about how enrollment data was to be collected from subscribers in the LSU Personal Access Web Services (PAWS), not a malfunction of the text messaging system. This situation has been resolved and all those who previously subscribed and all those who subscribe in the future will be opted-in to receive text notifications in the event of an emergency. Additional information is available on the LSU website.
