Campus Security

McMurry University uses McM Alert, an emergency notification system that delivers urgent information quickly to students, parents, and staff.

By enrolling in the service, registered users can receive timely alerts via SMS text message and email regarding:

• Emergencies

• Severe weather warnings

• Campus closures or delays

• Homeland security advisories

• Gas leaks, fires, or power outages

• Crime alerts and safety notifications

When immediate communication is critical, McM Alert allows the University to notify the McMurry community both on and off campus.

There is no cost from the University to participate in McM Alert. However, standard text messaging rates may apply depending on your individual mobile carrier plan.

All students and employees are strongly encouraged to register to ensure they receive essential safety updates without delay.

The Campus Sex Crimes Prevention Act is a federal law enacted on October 28, 2000. It provides for the tracking of convicted, registered sex offenders who are enrolled as students, employed, or volunteering at institutions of higher education.

The Act amends the Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act (FERPA) to clarify that colleges and universities are permitted to disclose information provided to them regarding registered sex offenders. It also directs the U.S. Secretary of Education to ensure institutions are notified that such disclosure is allowed.

Information about registered sex offenders may be found on the Texas Department of Public Safety website.

McMurry University publishes its most recent on-campus crime statistics in accordance with the Jeanne Clery Disclosure of Campus Security Policy and Campus Crime Statistics Act (Clery Act), as required by the U.S. Department of Education.

If you have questions about campus crime statistics or reporting, please get in touch with security@mcm.edu.

Additional information about the Clery Act and related resources is available at clerycenter.org.
