How to contact On-Call Support:
- Contact the below number and follow the prompts to leave a message (will not be answered so plan to leave a message).
- Please speak clearly and provide as much detail as possible so we can resolve your issues as quickly as possible.
- If the issue being reported impacts a university-wide system or service, our on-call team will return your call normally within 15 minutes.
