Voicemail for Adjunct Faculty
The John Jay Department of Information Technology (DoIT) sought and was awarded a Microsoft grant which has been used to provide adjunct faculty with a unique college phone number and voicemail. In spite of the lack of adjunct office space and phones, this project provides voicemail for all adjuncts that is delivered directly to their college email account. As voicemail is integrated with their email inbox checking messages for each adjunct is as simple as checking their email. In this way other faculty, staff and students have an additional channel through which to communicate with adjuncts that does not involve leaving a message on a general departmental number or shared phone. When coupled with listing each adjunct’s unique John Jay number in the college phone directory this system provides a more streamlined for adjunct voice communication.
