Telecommunications

Overview

The main University telephone number is 740-368-2000. All residence hall telephones have direct-dial numbers. Callers may dial 740-368-plus your extension number to reach you without going through a University operator. The central switchboard is open from 8 a.m. - 5 p.m., Monday - Friday only. Long distance calls may be placed from your room, using the University's long distance system or by using any long distance carrier's calling card.

Residence hall telephones are also equipped with PhoneMail. PhoneMail is a voice-messaging system that allows you to record, send, and receive voice messages from any touch-tone telephone. Messages are stored in your mailbox, which is similar to an answering machine.

Students who use the telephone and its PhoneMail capacity to harass or otherwise abuse others will be prosecuted through the University Judicial System. Additionally, misuse of the telephone may result in prosecution through local criminal court. Section 2917.21 of the Penal Code of the State of Ohio makes it unlawful for any person to: (1) fail to identify themselves to the recipient and make the telephone call with purpose to harass, abuse, or annoy any person; (2) describe, suggest, request, or propose any sexual activity, or cause damage to or destroy public or private property.
