Emergency (Personal) Message Procedure

A procedure has been designed to relay messages to students regarding personal emergencies. Students are asked to inform family members/friends that only emergency messages will be relayed to students. The caller must clearly state that an emergency exists. The caller will be asked for their name, their telephone number, relationship to the student, and the nature of the emergency. On the Downers Grove Campus, the student emergency message telephone number is 630/ 515-6470. On the Glendale Campus, the student emergency message telephone number is (623) 572-3210. These numbers are only available for use Monday-Friday, from 8 am to 4:30 pm. At all other times, please contact Security (630/515-7111 in Downers Grove, 623/572-3201 in Glendale).

Emergency calls for students on rotations at outside facilities must be directed to those facilities. Students are urged to obtain and familiarize themselves with the necessary information available at these facilities to ensure the expeditious handling ofemergency calls. All affiliate institutions will make every attempt to locate a student and deliver an emergency message; however, there is no guarantee that a student can be located. Therefore, it is advisable for students to develop alternative ways of receiving emergency calls and messages.
