Students can be advised of their phone number when their rooms are assigned. No connection or monthly charges - students pay only for the calls they make. There are no other monthly charges normally associated with having telephone service. Individual accountability and convenience with Auth Codes - no frustrations splitting the telephone bill with roommates. This is especially important considering the amount of room changes and withdrawals that occur in residence halls.
Students can use their same code from any student phone on campus.
Improved communications and security - every room has a working phone line so students can call anyone on campus, directories are easily published and accurate, and security is just a phone call away. While an integrated Campus Telephone Service will limit some of the choices available to the students many schools have determined that they and their students are best served by having an integrated service than dealing with the confusion and inefficiency of students subscribing for their own residential service.
