How can I modify or stop having Owens contact me for campus closings, emergencies and class cancellations?

Active students, faculty, and staff cannot opt out of the Emergency alerts, they can only modify and remove Outreach (class cancellation) alerts.

*Prior students, faculty, and staff; please contact the Help Desk to have your number removed.

To modify or remove Owens Alerts:

  1. Log into Ozone.
  2. Click the  Menu icon, the three horizonal lines in the upper left corner, then select Discover.
    Or
    Click the Discover More button at the bottom of your dashboard.
  3. Search for Owens Alerts.
  4. For students, select the  Student Personal Information card displayed in the results.

NOTE: If you have added, deleted or modified your Owens Alert Text Messaging (SMS) number you will receive a Text Message from your wireless provider.
