Phone System
Adrian College IS department runs a ShoreTel Voice-over-IP (VOIP) phone system. This system has provided cost savings and a friendly user interface for phone usage. Directories are available at your finger tips ad full call control and phone control via ShoreTel's software (Call Manager). If you are on campus, please follow the tutorial above for installation!
Residence halls are also on our ShoreTel phone system, but they can use analog phones to connect to the phone jack in their room. ShoreTel provides excellent 911 coverage - allowing the safety desk to see exactly where a 911 call is coming from on campus to provide even faster response to emergency situations. It is highly recommended that all students should bring a cheap analog phone with them to college to make on campus calls and for emergency situations!
