CIT provides telecommunication services for Calvin's campus.

Please indicate the nature of your problem, and give your name, telephone number, building name, and room number.
When you start at Calvin, you will be issued a Calvin phone number and an Audix account for voice-mail. If you didn't receive this information in your green CIT Account packet, please contact the CIT HelpDesk (x6-8555). It is important that we know what phone number you are using.
Budget officers can 
approve the purchase and use of cell phones for Calvin employees for business use.
If you are moving offices, do not move your telephone.
Each room and apartment is equipped with one analog phone and multiple phone jacks to which students may connect one answering machine and portable phone. Call-wating is on all residential phones. Local calling is provided at no charge. A calling card is necessary to place long distance calls from any campus telephone. Calling cards may be purchased at the Campus Store.
Telephone services to the room will be suspended and disciplinary action will be taken for tampering with or altering present equipment. All equipment must remain in the room. Charges will be incurred for broken or missing equipment.
