>STARTING JUNE 1:  10-DIGIT LOCAL DIALING REQUIRED
>
>You should now dial the area code plus number (10-digits) when making
>local calls outside of campus.  Beginning June 1, 2001, dialing only
>7-digits will no longer work from UW campus phones.  This change does not
>affect UWMC (598) users.
>
>Why dial area code plus number?
>-------------------------------
>Dialing the area code plus number from UW phones is in preparation for
>Western Washington's change to 10-digit local dialing and introduction of
>new area code 564 later this year.  Please "Think 10" now so you are ready
>when 10-digit dialing becomes mandatory at UW on June 1.
>
>Calling within the UW telephone system
>--------------------------------------
>You may continue to dial the last 5-digits of UW phone numbers when
>calling from a campus telephone (not available from UWMC).
>
>Call forwarding
>---------------
>If you use the call forwarding feature, be sure to enter 9 plus 10-digits
>if you are forwarding to an outside number (such as a cell phone or home
>phone).
>
>Checklist of equipment to change
>--------------------------------
>Update any preprogrammed numbers to use 9 plus 10 digits now.  Check your:
>o Autodial buttons
>o Speed calling lists
>o Fax machines
>o Modems
>o Alarm equipment, etc.
>
>Emergency calls
>---------------
>Emergency calls to 9-911 do not change.
>
>Toll-free calls
>---------------
>Local calls dialed with 10-digits are still "toll free."  In addition,
>Regional Calling Service lets you dial numbers in area codes 206, 253, and
>425 toll free from any UW campus phone.  Just dial 9 plus 10-digits.
>
>Publishing your phone number
>----------------------------
>Always publish and speak your number with 10-digits (area code plus
>number).  Area codes are no longer optional.  Use dashes or periods
>to show your unique phone number in print (such as 206-543-2100).
