Institute Provided Cell Phones

The Institute’s cell phone service provider agreement includes the following contractual arrangements:

  • Plan is comprised of a specified number of airtime minutes per month, which is shared by all Institute cell phone users.  This pool includes business use only. 

  • Plan includes unlimited nights and weekends after 9:00 pm.

  • Plan includes local Push-To-Talk (PTT) minutes at no additional cost. 

  • Plan includes free nationwide long distance.  However, this does use up our pooled airtime minutes.

The plan excludes:

  • Text messaging minutes, unless subscribed for a specific cell phone device.  Cost = $.10 per message, in and out.

  • Nationwide PTT minutes.

  • GPS (TeleNav) service, unless subscribed for a specific cell phone device.  Cost = $10 per month.

  • Weather service, unless subscribed for a specific cell phone.

  • Internet service, unless subscribed for a specific cell phone.

 Helpful Hints:

  • If available, a land-line phone should be used for calls made to others on campus.

  • PTT is the preferred method of communication when calling other Nextel customers, as this does not use any of the pooled minutes.

  • Attending meetings, set phone to vibrate.

  • Conversation privacy concerns, PTT speaker phone use may allow others to hear your conversations.  Make sure your conversation language and subject matter is appropriate.

  • Use your minutes wisely, as everyone shares in the pool of minutes.

 If you have any questions, please contact Dan Wells at x8205.
