To ensure you receive Hill Alerts, please follow our directions carefully. You must enter your cell phone number in a specific field, as detailed below.
Stonehill utilizes the Hill Alert emergency notification system to quickly and efficiently communicate with the campus community via text message—as well as through email or phone call—in the event of a campus emergency. All emergency notifications sent via text message will be delivered using SMS short codes. These communications will include at least one of the following words in the message’s body: Emergency, Critical, Urgent.
The College also sometimes uses the Hill Alert system for non-emergency notifications. When sent via text message, these operational communications will be delivered using a sender-identifiable phone number, otherwise known as a 10-digit long code.
To set up Hill Alert emergency notifications to be sent to your phone, you must log in to myHill and provide your cell phone number in a specific "Cellular" phone field. Please note that by doing so, you are also consenting to receive non-emergency/operational Hill Alerts.
Follow the instructions below to review and update your home address and phone numbers to receive Hill Alerts.

7. Once you have completed the changes, just click on the Submit button at the bottom of the page.
