These timely warnings provide information about campus safety and allow campus community members to take precautions. The reported information may not have been investigated or confirmed at the time of the issuance of the warning.

Physical descriptions of a suspect, including race, are included in timely warnings only when they provide several details that might help distinguish the suspect’s appearance from the general population.

A Timely Warning is not the same as a UAlert. A UAlert is an emergency notification for situations involving an immediate threat to the health or safety of students or employees.
