Starting in September 2022, the Office of Information Technology (OIT) will begin transitioning the College’s phones to an updated telephone service. It will take approximately four months to move the College’s 3,500 phones to the new service. 

The transition will be broken into several phases. OIT will contact your individual area ahead of time with specific dates and information to support you during the transition. 

You will keep your same phone and phone number and changes to the features and functions will have a minimum impact on your day-to-day use. 

OIT will be supporting two different telephone systems during the transition. As a result, it will be necessary to dial the entire 10-digit phone number when making internal calls until the transition has been completed.
