**The college DOES provide long distance services for resident students with our SIP Phones that can be requested [https://nextgensso.com/sp/startSSO.ping?PartnerIdpId=http://sts.mcla.edu/adfs/services/trust&TargetResource=https://dynamicforms.ngwebsolutions.com/ShowForm.aspx?RequestedDynamicFormTemplate=52d99b6b-ca2f-45e9-8951-1b61712fb9b8 Dorm Phone Request].
**The college does provide local calling and voicemail services to each resident student which is available upon arrival to campus.
**Cell services within the dorms are challenging and difficult; we have installed repeater cells to extend some cell service within the Berkshire Tower and Hoosac Hall resident hall lobby areas.
**More a reliable service, we still recommend using VoIP phone available from the Computer Support Services Help Desk to stay in contact with the college community, family and friends.
**Verizon and AT&T carriers have the best coverage outside the dorms and city area and Verizon has installed a full cell site at MCLA.
