Friends,
I write to update everyone on the status of a regional phone outage that continues to disrupt landline telephone service throughout the area.
This outage impacts anyone using a campus phone to call off campus and those trying to call on-campus landline phone numbers from off campus. Calls can be made from one campus landline to another.
Your safety is our number-one priority. Please note the important information below:
In case of an emergency, please remember to call 911 from a cell phone, or use one of the outdoor campus emergency telephones, which are identified by overhead blue lights. They automatically dial into the campus safety office; an officer will be dispatched to provide assistance.
(For students living on campus)
