Roommates will be able to purchase multiple long distance accounts, but there can be only one voice messaging account per phone line. Roommates can decide who will purchase those services and then split the cost between them. It is possible to purchase a second phone line. For more information, call Telecommunications at (541) 346-3198.

Your phone number can be found in your room on the inside of your vanity/closet door.

As on most campuses across the nation, bicycle theft is a big problem. We suggest you bring a used or inexpensive bike, along with a Kryptonite¨ U-shaped lock. You are required to register your bike with the Department of Public Safety upon arrival to campus. If DPS has recovered a stolen bike, the registration will help DPS return it to its rightful owner. Make sure you write down the serial number for your bike, so it may be identified.

Bikes that are parked at the bike racks and not registered will be impounded. The Department of Public Safety (DPS) will be providing bike registrations throughout check-in at various locations on campus. Please check your Week of Welcome schedule, call (541) 346-5444, or stop by DPS in Straub Hall for times and locations.
