Policy
TELEPHONE SYSTEM USE AND ABUSE
The Virginia Department of Information Technology has advised that use of Commonwealth telephone facilities for other than official business is considered telephone abuse and, in some instances, may constitute fraud. Telephone services are provided to College personnel on a demonstrated need basis and only in connection with official College business. The College Administration may, at its discretion, restrict line access/features and institute disciplinary action against persons who abuse the established policies. The following advisories should be especially noted:
All personnel should safeguard against unauthorized use of College telephone lines (e.g., by students or unknown individuals).
Employees are responsible for keeping calls of a personal nature, whether outgoing or incoming, to a minimum.
Placement of personal long distance calls at College expense is prohibited. If urgent circumstances require an employee to place a personal long distance telephone call during work hours, the call must be made at the expense of the employee; it may not be charged to the College.
TELEPHONE DIRECTORY UPDATES
