Stay connected: Update your contact information
It’s a new year and a new semester, which means it’s time to update your contact information so Governors State University (GovState) can reach you with important updates about campus emergencies, University closings or other events that call for rapid notification of the community.
If you received word that campus was closed over the past week, thank you. Because you updated your emergency contact information, GovState was able to notify you.
For those who didn't get the notifications or who would like to change their contact information, GovState's Emergency Response Team suggests staying connected by making changes online in the myGSU portal. Students (new and returning), faculty and staff can all use their myGSU portal to update their emergency information.
If you have any questions, please contact Human Resources at 708.534.4100.
