Teleconferencing
Telecommunications has a digital conference call system that
allows you to set up conference calls with as many as 24 people.
A unique feature of this system is that there are no garbled
conversations or fading voices. Several people can talk
and be heard at the same time, and every speaker’s volume is
automatically adjusted for listening comfort. Telecommunications
will handle the reservation for your call and ensure that
the call takes place, and runs smoothly.
Inquiries on available programs or reservations for a teleconference
can be made through the Telecommunications Office
by emailing telecom@utmem.edu. Requests should include:
- Date and Time of call
- Number of participants
