Crisis app prepares students for the worst
|Mason has helped develop a new mobile app designed to teach students about what to do in an emergency.
The app “In Case of Crisis” provides detailed instructions for what to do in events ranging from severe weather and power outages to on-campus violence or bomb threats. It also lists emergency contacts and offers more general, basic information, like how to receive notifications of an emergency and how people with mobility impairments or disabilities should respond.
Mason aims to make university services more accessible through new app
|Students will have easier access to university services this fall with the launch of Mobile Mason, George Mason University’s official mobile application. The app, which took about a year to plan and develop, offers a variety of free tools to students.
“People love the map,” said Kim Shriver, senior web developer from Web Communications in the University Relations office.
