UPartners® Launches tXt_beacon® Campus Alert System.  Now Reach Every Student On Campus Reliably and Securely Within Seconds.

April 30, 2007 -- UPartners® announces its mass text messaging service, tXt_beacon®, with a three month free trial for educational institutions across the country. The service enables university administrators to instantly, securely and simultaneously com-municate with large groups of students.

tXt_beacon is easy to implement, easy to use and works on all wireless carrier networks.  With tXt_beacon, university administrators can contact all partici-pating students in seconds through a private and secure web interface.  Stud-ents opt in via the web or by sending a pre-configured keyword (e.g., UCLA) to tXt_beacon’s five-digit short code directly from their mobile phones.  tXt_beacon also provides a two-way emergency alert feature that allows students to send pictures and videos directly to the campus police department from their mobile phones.

tXt_beacon is the only text service that delivers advertising-free messages and ensures that student will only receive messages from university approved admin-istrators. Because each student opts in to receive alerts from the proprietary tXt_beacon service, the critical piece of information – the student’s cell phone number – is automatically, securely, and accurately stored.
