Reminder: Move to New Telephone Service Provider
What is happening?
The Office of Information Technology (OIT) has begun 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.
What can I expect?
The transition will be broken into several phases. The Germantown Campus transition will begin on September 20, 2022. As a result, all calls to and from Germantown Campus will require the entire 10‑digit phone number to be dialed until the transition project has been completed in December.
You will keep your same phone and phone number. Changes to the features and functions will have a minimum impact on your day‑to‑day use.
Please contact the IT Service Desk to address any questions or concerns:
