RAVE Alert Notifcation System

RAVE Alert is the Emergency Notification System for the IWU Marion campus and National and Global sites. IWU uses RAVE to instantly reach mobile devices, e-mail, and social media when an urgent situation needs to be communicated. RAVE Alert notifications are specific to an individual's assigned IWU location(s). All faculty, staff, and students are automatically enrolled in RAVE using the @indwes.edu email address and the cell phone number provided to the University through the application process or employment process.

Activating a RAVE Alert

In the event of a Marion campus-wide emergency, such as violent crimes in progress, severe weather, or a fire, you should immediately contact Campus Police by dialing 765-677-4911. Campus Police will begin the process of issuing an alert, or emergency notification depending on the situation. Using the RAVE Notification system, all users at a defined location will be sent a message utilizing text messages, e-mail, or both.

Emergencies at regional centers or off-site locations, please contact the staff at your location, any Campus Security Authority (CSA), or building manager. This staff will initiate the RAVE Notification system. If you are unable to locate an employee or a CSA is not available, call 9-1-1.

You can access your RAVE Alert account by visiting www.getrave.com/login/indwes. The log-in will be provided to you via email upon enrollment to the system. The username is your @indwes.edu email address and the password of your choice.
