Thunderbird, Kentucky State University, and University of Wisconsin Oshkosh
Are Among Many Higher Education Institutions Better Prepared For Emergencies

Many more colleges and universities across the country are implementing the
e2Campus emergency notification system

LEESBURG, Va., March 31 /PRNewswire/ -- Omnilert(R), LLC, maker of
e2Campus(R), the leading emergency notification system for higher education,
announced a long list of higher education institutions that have implemented
the company's emergency notification system to better prepare for emergencies.

A partial list of higher education institutions that have recently implemented
an e2Campus emergency notification system include Campbell University, Charter
Oak State College, Claflin University, Franklin University, Kentucky State
University, McMurry University, New Mexico State University at Alamogordo,
North Idaho College, South Texas College of Law, Southern Illinois College,
Thunderbird School of Global Management, Louisiana School for the Deaf,
University of Maine at Farmington, University of Nevada-Reno, University of
Wisconsin-Platteville, University of Wisconsin Oshkosh, University Center of
Lake County, U.S. Coast Guard Academy, and Warner Pacific College.

"Thunderbird School of Global Management signed up with e2Campus's emergency
alert services in order to better prepare us to quickly and effectively alert
the Thunderbird community in case of an emergency," says Carol Sunnucks, Sr.
Director of Corporate Communications.

Edward Field, Director of Information Technology at Kentucky State University
said, "KSU wanted the ability to communicate to our campus community via text
messaging, digital signage, e-mail and land lines from one unified source. We
selected e2Campus as our emergency notification alert system because it was
easy to setup and had a user friendly web interface for administrative
management."

Mr. Fields continued, "Beyond sending voice messages to cell phones and land
lines and sending text messages to cell phones, it integrates with our
existing digital signage system. There is a lot of bang for the buck with
e2Campus. The cost for three year service is very competitive and they have
great customer service."

About e2Campus
Used by more than 600 campuses around the country, e2Campus is the Tier-1
multimodal emergency notification network that enables school officials to
self-administer and send time-sensitive messages for a fraction of the cost
and complexity of existing notification solutions. There is no traditional
software to install, no hardware to buy and no additional phone lines needed.
A school can set up a secure notification network in minutes to send emergency
notifications to their entire campus community or smaller groups, such as
branch campuses, residence halls, or staff-only. e2Campus instantly and
simultaneously sends multimodal alerts to a subscriber's mobile phone (via SMS
text message), landline phone (via voice message), e-mail accounts, and RSS
reader, plus 3rd party campus infrastructure such as loudspeakers,
fire/security systems, LCD/LED digital signage, alert beacons, Facebook Pages,
Twitter Accounts, and relevant school Web pages. To learn more, visit
