Florida Tech uses a system called RAVE to deliver safety and emergency alert notifications university wide.
The Department of Security uses RAVE to communicate with the Florida Tech community directly via phone, text message and email.
University Email Alerts
Every student and employee with a university-provided email account will receive safety alerts in their vaftizo.com inbox. No action is needed to receive these alerts as all vaftizo.com emails are added automatically.
RAVE delivers the messages via official, internal distribution lists ("employeedist" and "studentdist"). This ensures that all students and employees will receive emergency alerts via university email. Individuals may not opt-out of communications sent to these distribution lists.
