[Telephones] [Mail] [Newsletter] [Area Bulletin Boards]Telephones
Telephones are not provided in the apartments, so you will need to bring or purchase one when you move in. To have service connected, fill out the form when signing into an apartment, or stop by the WMU Telecommunications Office (adjacent to Waldo Library). They will give you dialing instructions, inform you of charges and any special features offered. Report all telephone service problems to the WMU Telecommunications Office at 387.4663. Only one telephone jack is provided in each apartment, and it is located in the living room.
All mail is delivered by the U.S. Postal Service and any problems should be reported directly to them. Individual apartment boxes for incoming mail are located in each stairwell. The names of all occupants of the apartment must be noted on the mailbox in order for mail to be delivered.
WMU apartment addresses are regular Kalamazoo addresses, not campus mail, so the words, "Western Michigan University" should not be listed in your address as this will delay or prevent delivery.
Newsletter
The Communicator is published periodically by the WMU Apartments Office to keep you informed about apartment activities, safety and maintenance issues, and general information about apartment living. The editor welcomes your input and encourages you to contribute articles voicing your concerns, compliments and opinions.
Area Bulletin Boards
Watch the bulletin boards in your area for job postings, special announcements and other information. Bulletin boards can be used to advertise personal items for sale or exchange, but the WMU Apartments Office must approve any other posting.
