All members of the Elon community are recommended to register for emergency text messages through the E-Alert system found at https://www.elon.edu/u/fa/police/emergency/e-alert/. This is the university's primary source for campus crisis information and the most important service for which to register. Elon can text your cell phone and email you timely information about emergencies, class cancellations, and inclement weather information.
Students may also download the Rave Guardian app which offers two-way communication direct to Campus Safety & Police. Students and employees can share information, anonymously if they so choose, through text, photo, or video directly from their smartphones. Additionally, app users can receive important broadcast notifications sent by the Elon University Police Department. http://www.elon.edu/e-web/bft/safety/emergency.xhtml .
Bicycles on Campus: According to the Elon University Student Handbook, bicycles may only be parked in areas designated for bicycles with bike racks. All bicycles must be registered with the Office of Campus Safety and Police. Bicycles found in any areas including but not limited to stairwells, railings, brick colonnades and gazebos will be confiscated, and a $5 fine and $10 monthly storage fee will be assessed.
For those who ride their bikes to the Francis Center, please leave them outside of the building and lock them in the bike rack located at the student, staff, and faculty entrance. There are no facilities or spaces inside the Center to accommodate bikes. If your bike is stolen, report the theft to Campus Safety & Police immediately. Also, if you have any questions or concerns, please call Campus Safety & Police at (336) 278-5555.
