If there is an issue with the building outside of normal working hours or on the weekend, you will need to contact the UM Dispatch Office (ext. 7087; (662) 915-7087). You will need to be prepared to share with them the specific issue as well as the exact location, and may need to remain on location to meet and show them the problem. Examples of some things that may require that you call dispatch after hours or on the weekend include: temperature, lighting issues, active leaks, and/or major bathroom issues.
For other issues related to the building that the dispatcher cannot assist you with, including suspicious individuals/activities or other security concerns, you will need to call the University Police Department (ext. 7234; (662) 915-7234).
Please also follow this up with an email to jacrequests@olemiss.edu, as we are sometimes not informed of issues that occur after hours.
