Access System - Photo-IDs
You will need to have your photo ID with you at all times in the building to get into our areas on 3rd floor and in the LRC.

The only elevator usage after hours is the North set of elevators. DON’T put a pin into the card nor bend the card. If it gets a pin hole or if it cracks from a bend the card will no longer work. First card is free, all others are a $15.00 replacement fee. Cards must be activated onto this system once received. The Administrator or the LRC Coordinator must activate the card.
Telephone
Telephone System - Two ways to place an outgoing call:
If the number is anywhere on either UNL campus, dial 2 + the four digit extension.
All other calls, dial 9 + the phone number. local, then dial the seven digit number. long distance 9 + 1 + area code + seven digit number.
Voice mail – each phone has voice mail. Students are instructed that they must all faculty at their office and talk to them or leave voice mail for any absences from class or clinical experiences. To learn how to use this system on your phone you will need to go to Telecommunications web site for the voice mail manual. If you have a phone system problem, notify the administrator.
Phone Meetings - You will have some meetings that are held via telephone conference. The phone bridge conference will have the phone numbers listed under the title of the conference on the daily room schedules posted throughout the college. It will be listed in parenthesis.

Also, the operators only open the bridge about 7 minutes prior to the assigned time and they close the bridge around 7 minutes after the assigned time. Should there be problems with the conference call, or if you come in later than 7 minutes from the beginning, you must dial the Bridge Operator # 2-3711.
Copy Machines
Copier machines are located on 1st floor in room #107, on 3rd floor in room #359 and then a coin operated copier in the lower level LRC area student lounge. We use codes to enter the machine. The code is either a part of your course number (Graduate or Undergraduate course) or some other unique number assignment due to grant or other specific projects. Since most of the copying is for course work, the code is always the number 11 + the three (3) digit course number – (11320). There are many functions that these machines can perform. Always double check after changing a function that the correct icons are showing on the display prior to pushing the print key. When done copying in room #359, make sure the door to the room is shut when you leave the room! NO STUDENT USE
