They use a platform yes, but I have no idea how security factors in.
These notifications aren't exactly sensitive information.  They're
things like notifications that students can order donuts on Friday.

What they do, is they post the news on the platform, then send a
notification there is news on the platform, with a link.  Thats fine,
but I can't for the life of me see why they don't also just put the
text in that email.  The news is literally just several sentences of
plain text.
