Teams Calls

Make a call from anywhere that has internet service!

The campus phone service through Microsoft Teams (named "Teams Calls") provides a modern telephone experience that offers enhanced usability, robust accessibility, and device flexibility.  It has the added benefit of low telecommunications costs and leverages the Teams platform, which is also a central hub for collaboration at William & Mary.
