A committee of faculty and representatives from the financial services industry developed a curriculum that parallels that of the CFP program. The curriculum, some of which is taught in the Fisher College of Business, must meet 106 technical elements to qualify for CFP registration. The identity of the family and all financial data will remain confidential except to Hanna, the student and the graduate student supervising the case. The goal is to provide campus customers with better-quality payphones that offer enhanced capabilities such as data jacks, and eliminating service problems with the current contract provider. The new payphones are customized with Ohio State's name and colors and accept U.S. coins and MasterCard and Visa credit cards.
Internet connectivity is available through the phone's data jack.
The phones feature a digital display for customizable text messages in English and Spanish, and audio assistance in both languages. For added campus safety, the first of 10 programmable speed dial buttons on every payphone are programmed for emergency 911 calling that automatically rings to the University Police Department. The remaining one-touch buttons will be used for business purposes. The removal and replacement of each payphone is being coordinated with the outgoing service provider. We appreciate the dedication and leadership that Greg provided during his tenure.
