Emergency Phones

There are 68 emergency phones located across campus. They are located inside buildings and parking garages, and outside on sidewalks and by parking lots. They are easily identifiable by their blue lights. 

In case of an emergency, simply push the button and, when the dispatcher answers, state the emergency. These phones ring directly into the Consolidated Communications Partnership, and the dispatcher can, by looking at the phone panel, identify the location of the caller. In addition, an emergency phone is located in each elevator and may be activated by picking up the receiver or pushing the button. When the receiver is picked up or the button pushed, the elevator phones ring directly into the Consolidated Communications Partnership for emergency response.
