Welcome to Lehigh! This message describes some services provided by Lehigh's Telecommunications Services area. LU-ALERT Emergency Message Notification system LU-ALERT sends a mobile text alert to all students, faculty, and staff who have subscribed to the service in cases of imminent danger, or when an emergency situation will impact a significant number of people.

Students wanting telephone service in their room are expected to provide their own standard telephone. Read more information. Long Distance Service Lehigh University uses an on-campus system to handle the billing of long-distance calls made from on-campus telephones. Learn how to sign up for long-distance service and calling rates. Toll-Free Numbers, Calling Cards and Collect Calls When using calling cards (other than the prepaid type), be aware of any charges that your calling card vendor might bill directly to you. The cost of any billable incoming call received by a particular extension will be divided among the room occupants. Billing for collect and other billable calls may not occur immediately, since billing information must first be forwarded from our local service provider to Lehigh. Lehigh's Voice Mail Service Students may request a voice mail account for their student residence telephone. Read more information. Questions? Contact us at (610) 758-5005, or e-mail ll06@lehigh.edu.
