There's more VIMS email information on the ITNS website. Don't forget to activate your W&M email account and then create a rule to redirect your W&M email to your VIMS email mailbox. The rule should redirect all messages then delete the message from the William & Mary mailbox. The redirect feature maintains the original sender information allowing replies to those email messages.

The vims-business email address provides a mechanism for contacting everyone at VIMS with important announcements related to VIMS operations and business.  The vims-misc list is used for more casual announcements of upcoming events, lost-and-found items, items for sale, etc., that are not related to the business of the VIMS community.  You may opt-out of the vims-misc list by submitting an ITNS Help Request.  

For full guidelines on the use of VIMS group email addresses, see VIMS PPD 0303.  Use of either group address for commercial or partisan political purposes, such as circulating advertising for products or for political candidates, is not allowed. Please also consider the broad range of backgrounds and experiences in our community, and VIMS’ goal to welcome, support, engage and celebrate this diversity when posting messages.

Phones - VIMS uses a voice-over-ip landline telephone system called Avaya IP Office.  For details on available services, contact Will Benton, Telecommunications Specialist, at x7085.

Telephone/Handset reference guides are available, here.

For move, add, and change requests, submit an ITNS Help Request.   

Phone Use Policy - VIMS landline telephones may be used for local calls, with long-distance service limited to business-related calls. To obtain an outside line, dial 9 and then dial the number you are calling. The landline communications system is programmed to allow identification of the 911 emergency location of a caller. Do not move a landline phone to a new office or workspace as this may pose a threat to a caller’s safety in case of emergency.

International Travel

Quick links (W&M, external): W&M International Travel Policy; W&M IT Security Guidelines for Travelers; W&M Export Control 

Faculty, staff and students planning international travel should be familiar with and adhere to W&M's International Travel Policy. For example, if you are teaching a course that involves travel to another country, enrolled students are required to purchase international travel insurance from the university's vendor.  When traveling internationally, you should be especially mindful of IT security and you are required to adhere to Export Control regulations (see below).

Travel approval by W&M's International Travel Review Committee (ITRC) is mandatory when a travel request involves a country on the university's advisory list. And, if you are taking with you any equipment (such as a laptop computer) or information (including collaboration or training with foreign nationals), or working with a country subject to a U.S. trade embargo, you should contact the International Travel and Security Manager at the Reves Center to seek clarity with regard to compliance with U.S. laws concerning export control. A full list can be found on the U.S. Department of State’s website. Further details available here...

For additional information and support contact Nick Vasquez, International Travel and Security Manager (Chair)

From W&M IT: International travelers should limit the amount of sensitive information that is stored on or accessible to any mobile device taken on the trip, and travelers should avoid contact with the William & Mary (and VIMS) network in general, specifically when traveling to high risk countries more...

Export Control:
Quick link (W&M, external): W&M Export Control

Although most typical academic research activities are not subject to U.S. export control regulations, there are certain conditions under which the export of a technology (including technical data and know-how) either is prohibited or requires a license.

Most W&M, including VIMS, research is considered Fundamental Research and is therefore excluded from export control laws. Fundamental Research is defined in National Security Division Directive 189 as follows:  "Fundamental research means basic and applied research in science and engineering, the results of which ordinarily are published and shared broadly within the scientific community, as distinguished from proprietary research and from industrial development, design, production, and product utilization, the results of which ordinarily are restricted for proprietary or national security reasons."

Please visit W&M Export Control for important details and contact VIMS Office of Sponsored Programs for information and support on the VIMS campus.

Keys and Access Cards for Campus Buildings

Buildings currently accessed by card are: Andrews Hall, Clayton House, Chesapeake Bay Hall, Seawater Research Laboratory.
