Meet Me Conference

What Is It? The Meet Me Conference feature will allow up to 12 parties either on-campus or off-campus to call into a single telephone number and be joined in a conference call. People calling in from long distance locations will pay their normal long distance charge.

How Does It Work? The first person to call into the conference will hear the ringing sound until the second party calls in. When the second party is connected, the first caller will hear a beep and the ringing sound will stop. The first and second party will be connected and may begin talking. Each time a new party enters the conference, the parties already talking will hear the beep.
