E-mail and Telephone Information

Each faculty member will receive a Framingham State College e-mail account.  To receive an e-mail account, a network account, and/or Ingres access, each new faculty member must complete an Application for a Framingham State College User Account.  After completing the application it should be forwarded to your department chair for approval.

Your office will have a telephone extension with voice mail.  To access and initialize your voice mail account, simply dial 4000 and follow the prompts.  As a faculty member, you will receive a telephone directory that includes the names, telephone and fax numbers, office locations and e-mail addresses of the faculty, staff, and administration of the College.

If you have any difficulties with e-mail or voice mail do not hesitate to contact the Faculty/Staff Helpdesk at extension 4357 or visit the Information Technology Services Web site.

Parking

Faculty will receive a decal in the mail valid for a two-year period.  If you are a new employee of the College, you must report to the Department of Public Safety and Police Services and fill out a decal application card.  New employees must present a letter from their Department Chair confirming employment with the College.  Please make certain that you know your vehicle license plate, make, model and year, as well as your driver’s license number.  Once your application is on file, unless any pertinent information changes such as name, vehicle, and/or address, you will not have to fill out another application card until your decal expires.  If there are changes, you must contact the Department of Public Safety and Police Services so that records can be updated.  There will be no cost for the decal.

Those assigned to Bement and Normal Hill Lots will be issued decals as well as access cards.  Decals and access cards are non-transferable.

For a complete listing of the parking rules and regulations, please refer to the Framingham State College Parking Rules and Regulation Handbook that can be obtained from the Department of Public Safety and Police Services by calling extension 4911.
