The University provides several different phone models, some models allow multiple lines and/or speed dials. The IS department is responsible for setting up those lines for our users.

The University also provides teaching spaces, entrances, and hallways with shared phones. These phones are available for anyone to use. You will have to dial 9 first before the number if you are dialing someone off campus. These phones do not let you call long distance numbers.
