A cheerful email from Georgia Tech’s Information Overlords this morning:

The tragedy that occurred at Virginia Tech earlier this year drove home a clear message — effective and efficient communication is an essential component of any emergency plan. …

Everyone who has a Georgia Tech e-mail address will now receive emergency e-mail alerts. However, in order to also receive text messages and voice mails, we are asking members of the campus community to provide a mobile phone number by going to Passport at the following link:
