Rolm Phones make up the campus-wide phone system. Student phone numbers are 212-853-xxxx. Administration and faculty phone numbers are 212-854-xxxx. Standard Rolm Phone units have free on-campus dialing, voice mail, call forwarding, call waiting, and a one-way speaker phone.

Though at one time a useful medium for connecting students, ROLM phones are now generally unused by students, who opt instead for the many more convenient forms of intercampus communication such as e-mail, instant messaging, and cell phones.

Campus wide phone messages sent to ROLM phones absolutely never contain useful information that cannot be obtained elsewhere quicker and more conveniently. A folded piece of paper tucked under the plastic faceplate is an effective way to hide the annoying red blinking light.
