Telephone System
The college owns several phone systems that serve the individual campuses. The systems include voice mail features at each location. Employees who are not familiar with the many of features of these systems should contact the system administrator for their campus and arrangements will be made for a brief orientation.
The telephone systems will handle the normal load of the campus. Occasionally, during peak periods, a busy signal will be encountered when attempting to call off-campus. This happens when all of the trunk lines coming to the campus are being used. For this reason, it is imperative that calls of personal nature be held to a minimum. The inter-campus use of the telephone does not interfere with incoming or outgoing trunk lines.
HOURS OF OPERATION: The college switchboard is open whenever classes are in session or during normal business hours. The automated attendant answers incoming calls when the switchboard is closed. Individual extensions may be reached at any time.
ON-CAMPUS CALLS: Extension numbers may be reached from any location by dialing the appropriate four-digit number.
OFF-CAMPUS CALLS: Local area numbers may be reached from any on-campus extension by dialing the off-campus number.
MAINTENANCE: Any problems with telephone service should be reported to the switchboard operator or system administrator.
CHANGES IN SERVICE: Equipment or system change desired should be requested in writing to the system administrator.
STUDENT USE OF TELEPHONES: College telephones are not for student use. Faculty and staff are asked to help enforce this policy.
