Dialing

The Telecommunications Office provides voice telecommunications services to all faculty and staff at The Evergreen State College

This article pertains to our legacy PBX phone system that is being replaced by Teams Phone.

Campus offices may be reached directly by dialing (360) 867 + the extension number without going through the campus switchboard. You may still reach the automated attendant system by dialing (360) 867- 6000 + the extension number when prompted.
All long distance calls are charged after 40 seconds from the time "8" is dialed.
Directory Assistance- The preferred method for directory assistance is to search using your preferred search engine. However, directory assistance can be accessed via 8+(area code)+555-1212 at a cost of $0.75 per call. All other directory assistance numbers are blocked due to our system dialing plan.
