Change in Technology Services Support

Effective January 4, 2010, technology support is once again provided exclusively by on campus staff who can be reached by contacting the Technology Service Desk at 253.879.8585 or servicedesk@pugetsound.edu.

This change marks the end of the 24/7 Tech Help service implemented August 3, 2009, through a partnership with an off-site help desk service. The toll-free 800 number offered as a Tech Help feature will no longer be in place.

Service will initially appear much like it did prior to August 3, although faculty members can now utilize a new phone tree feature to immediately escalate classroom emergency calls.
