The MACRO experiment has been running as a supernova neutrino detectorsince 1989 and is sensitive to the whole galaxy since the beginning of 1992. A galactic supernovawould produce some hundreds of νe events in the detector. We describe our stellar gravitational collapseonline monitors and alarm system, and present the results of a search for neutrino bursts from supernovaeduring a period of 1.5 yr.
