Montclair State Officials Address Social Media Rumors of Possible Campus Threat – Students and parents at Montclair State University were shaken Monday after social media posts began circulating about a possible school shooting threat on campus. Some posts referenced a *Red Hawk Alert*, urging parents — especially those of incoming freshmen — to make sure they are signed up for the university’s emergency notification system.

As of this afternoon, no credible threat has been confirmed by university officials or Montclair police. Authorities say they are aware of the online chatter and are closely monitoring the situation.

Montclair State uses the **Rave Mobile Safety alert system**, which automatically registers all students through their university contact information. Parents, family members, and visitors can also opt in to receive the alerts.

University officials stress that anyone concerned should rely on **official Red Hawk Alerts and the Montclair State University Police Department** for accurate updates, rather than unverified social media posts.

The situation remains under review, but at this time, there is no active shooter or verified incident on campus.
