PSU rolls out unified messaging to students
Telecom Services, a unit of ITS, rolled out a new unified messaging service to matriculated undergrads this year. In place of landline phones in the residence halls, this system assigns a virtual 5-digit number to students that will stay with them for their time at PSU. Here’s how it works.
Look up a student in myPlymouth or in the Print Directory (due out in November). Or dial 5-3333 and speak their name. You will be connected to that student’s voice mailbox. Leave a message. A voice file will be forwarded to the student’s email address. Additionally, if they sign up for it, a message will be texted to their cell phone indicating a message is waiting for them in email.
This is part of a larger effort to improve communications to students using the tools they are most familiar with.
