Please see Residence Life about sign up.
Each student is assigned a personal and confidential PIN (personal identification number) code to use when placing long distance calls. These calls should be placed from the student's extension only.
Use of this code signifies the student's agreement to abide by the policies and procedures outlined by ECCI. SWOSU students are responsible for their own authorization codes and all calls made with that code.
For this reason, all codes should be memorized and kept private. If you post your code near your phone or "lend" your code to another student, be aware that you will still be responsible for calls made with the code.
Unauthorized use of another student's code will constitute loss of your long distance privileges. You will be responsible to pay the accrued charges. You may incur a fine and will be subject to further disciplinary action which could include criminal prosecution.
Students can access carriers of their choice by simply dialing the carrier's 1-800 number to access their services.
