Stay connected with up-to-date contact information
Welcome back, Jaguars! With the start of a new semester at Governors State University (GovState), it's important to update personal contact information to stay in the know about any emergencies on campus, university closings or other events that need rapid notification to the community.
GovState's Emergency Response Team suggests staying connected by updating contact information online in the GovState portal. Students (new and returning), faculty and staff can all use the GovState portal to update their personal contact information and emergency information.
