Scheduling an Operator-Assisted Teleconference
With operator-assisted teleconferences, University Operators establish each connection at the time of the teleconference. Long distance charges are billed to a university long-distance authorization code.
At the time of the conference, a University Operator will establish a connection to each participant. At least one of the participants must be connected from a campus phone line in order for the conference to stay active after the operator releases it. If a caller leaves the conference, he or she will not be able to rejoin.
Ordering the teleconference
Call the University Operator (on campus, dial 0; off campus, 512-232-CONF (2663)). You will be asked for the:
date, time, and length of the conference;
the names and numbers of conferees and originator; and
the long-distance authorization code to be used. Please schedule at least a day in advance if possible.
Note: Operator-assisted teleconferences can only be scheduled for times when the operators are on duty. See University Operators for hours.
