Conference calling can provide vital connectivity in the event of absences. UIT has arranged for a "pay as you use it" conferencing capability. This service provides divisions and schools with an 800 number and a moderator PIN to conference up to 150 people who can call from anywhere in the world. You pay for the service only when you use it. To use Tufts’ conference calling service, you must arrange for access in advance of your first intended call. To establish conference calling services, please send requests to teldesk@tufts.edu or call the Voice Services Helpdesk at (617) 627-4357.
