An Improved Link to the Emergency
Notification Sign Up Process
There’s a new link to the Emergency Notification sign up process and it is easier than ever! Here are those easy steps:
 From the MCC4me student portal, find the Emergency Notification link on the right side
 From the MCC4me employee portal, find the Emergency
Notification link in the middle.

From there you’ll find a quick and easy screen to enter
your phone numbers for voice or text.
 And there’s one easy button to remove the notifications.
The Emergency Notification System is specifically designed to
enhance campus wide communication through multiple points of
contact. All MCC students, faculty and staff can receive emergency notification through the existing College voice mail and
email systems. The Emergency Notification System helps MCC
maintain its commitment to ensuring the safety and security of
the College community by taking necessary steps to broaden
its reach of emergency communications.

Thunderstorms Always Produce Lightning
Recent weather, although not very warm, has been producing a few thunderstorms.
Some areas across the country have experienced deadly lightning strikes. If you hear
thunder, know that lightning exists. When a watch or warning has been issued you’ll
want to consider the following tips for your safety.
 Use the 30/30 rule. Go indoors if you see lightning and cannot count to 30 before hearing
thunder. Stay indoors for 30 minutes after hearing the last of the thunder.
 Don’t use items that plug into electrical outlets. Power surges from lightening can come
through the cords and be dangerous.

Don’t wash your hands, take a bath or take a shower. Faucets can conduct electricity.

Stay away from windows and doors.

Don’t lie on concrete floors or lean against concrete walls. They conduct electricity.
 Don’t touch anything metal outside – bikes, playgrounds,
fences.

Stay away from open fields, hills, or the beach.
 Don’t stand near “lightning rods” such as tall trees or a
flagpole.

Stay away from loose or dangling power lines.
 Stay away from areas damaged by the storm or flood waters.
