BUFFALO, N.Y. -- The University at Buffalo has installed a new telephone service to provide information when office hours and class schedules will be altered as the result of inclement weather or for other reasons.
The information will be available at 645-NEWS (645-6397) to students, faculty and staff, as well as the public, 24 hours a day. There never will be a busy signal since the line has the capacity to handle an unlimited number of calls simultaneously.
The standard recorded message will be "Offices are open and classes are being held as scheduled today at the University at Buffalo." The message will be changed appropriately as soon as university officials decide to alter office hours and class schedules due to weather conditions or other situations.
