There are approximately 106 emergency phones located throughout the campus.
Callers talk directly with the communications operator through the speaker on the pole.
Police, security, rescue or other appropriate personnel are then dispatched. This type of emergency phone is also equipped with a blue light that that flashes when the red button is pushed. These phones also dial only directly to the UNM Police Department. The University of New Mexico Police Department can be contacted from any other phone on the campus by dialing 911. Cell phones dialing 911 will go the the City of Albuqueruque's 911 service.
