| |
| − | | |
| − | Faculty and staff who purchase a BlackBerry device from a carrier may request an account on the College's BlackBerry Enterprise Server (BES). The advantage to this is that your Microsoft Exchange e-mail, calendar, and contacts are synchronized real-time with your desktop/laptop Exchange services.
| |
| − | | |
| − | If you don't have an account on the BES, your other option is to use Desktop Manager to synchronize with your BlackBerry. The disadvantage to this is that you need to keep your desktop turned on at all times to keep it synchronized. However, if your desktop is powered off, the next time you turn it on, your BlackBerry Exchange applications will be synchronized.

| − | ==== '''Residential Hall Telephones''' ====
| |
| − | | |
| − | We provide [http://www.middlebury.edu/media/view/258064/original/Dorm_common_area_phones.pdf courtesy telephones ]in all residence halls. These telephones are located in common areas and hallways. In smaller houses there is one courtesy phone in a common area. These phones may be used for emergency calls to 911 or Public Safety at 5911, to call campus phones by dialing an extension, and to make local and toll-free calls. Outgoing long-distance calls require a calling card. Calls may be received directly when callers dial these numbers using 802-443 and the extension number.
| |
| − | | |
| − | <br>'''''In Room Telephone Service - Academic Year Only''''': As of January 1, 2010, residential hall rooms no longer automatically have telephone service because most students use cellular phones as their sole voice communication. If you desire a telephone land line in your room, you may request service through the Personal Information link on [https://jade.middlebury.edu/PNTR/twbkwbis.P_WWWLogin? BannerWeb]. There is a $50 installation fee per academic year. You can expect service within approximately 2 weeks of your request. You will need to provide your own telephone. If you are in a double, both you and your roommate can share an extension and, upon request have two separate, private voice mailboxes.

For details on any company's coverage, please visit their Web sites. Pre-paid cellular services are also an option: Net10 and Tracfone work well on campus. If you order from them online, use the Middlebury zip code, 05753. Students should also understand that reception can be weak in a few campus locations due to building construction and materials.

| |
| − | | |
| − | ==== Provide your Cell Phone Number (OPTIONAL, BUT STRONGLY ENCOURAGED) <br> ====
| |
| − | | |
| − | In 2007 the College implemented an emergency broadcast notification system, AlertFind. It allows the College to send out timely information to cell phones and e-mail accounts, and if you have one, your dorm extension or office telephone, in a rapid and organized manner. This system can only reach you if we have your contact information. If you provide a cell phone number, it will be stored in our Banner database as well as in the emergency notification system for use in the event of a pressing need to contact you quickly. It will not appear in the on-line directory. If you own a cell phone, it is in your best interest to provide your number for this purpose.
| |
| − | | |
| − | ==== How do I provide my cell phone? ====
| |
| − | | |
| − | Logon to [http://go/bw BannerWeb] and select Personal Information. Choose option, Update Cell Phone. Provide your number and you are finished. If you need to update this number at a later date, you can simply enter the new cell phone number.
| |
| − | | |
| − | == Emergency Calls ==
| |
| − | | |
| − | ==== In an emergency dial 911 or 5911. ====
| |
| − | | |
| − | 911 calls connect to a Vermont Public Safety Answering Point (PSAP) dispatch center, which may send an ambulance, the fire department, and/or local police. The campus Department of Public Safety is simultaneously notified of the call and will send an officer to the location regardless. 5911 is the Department of Public Safety's on-campus emergency number. <br>
| |
| − | | |
| − | Take care in dialing. Dial 911 only in an emergency. <u>If you mistakenly dial 911 please do not hang up</u> since calls are captured and identified. The appropriate action is to stay on the line and tell the dispatcher that you have misdialed and do not have an emergency.
| |
| − | | |
| − | <br>In the event of a hang-up PSAP dispatchers will attempt to call you back. If there is no answer, a campus Public Safety officer is sent to the location of that phone. Specific locations of calls placed from any on-campus phone are determined by the College-maintained 911 database. Included in the location information sent to the 911 dispatcher are the telephone number of the calling party, the building and room from which the call was placed, and the street address of the building where the extension is located. The availability of this information can be critical to responding emergency personnel in cases where the calling party is unable to provide their location.
| |
| − | | |
| − | <br>For non-emergency Public Safety calls dial 5133.
