University phone system has resumed operating normally

December 2, 2017

This announcement was emailed to students, faculty and staff on Dec. 2:

The telephone system at Wake Forest resumed operating normally early in the morning on December 2.

The University telephone system experienced a major disruption Dec. 1 that was announced shortly after 9 p.m.  Calls made to University telephones from off-campus phones and cell phones were not getting through to the University.

That problem with the University telephone system has been resolved.  No disruption in service is occurring now.

Wake Forest’s phone service problem was related to a larger phone system disruption beyond the University.

Callers may reach the University Police Department at the usual phone numbers, 336-758-5911 (emergency) and 336-758-5591.  As usual, from a University phone (land line), call 911 or 5591.
