I would like to thank the deputy for that response. I just have some questions about the voice response system, because there have been concerns raised with me in meetings with the students coalition about their inability to hook up, when they call in, with a live person. They feel that they get bounced around the department, or bounced around cyberspace in voicemail somewhere. Especially when it is concerned with funding and whether or not their funding has been approved, how much money they are getting, those kind of things. They cannot access a real person and have to leave messages. It is frustrating, especially since they are in class mostly during the hours of eight to five, so they are trying to check their own voicemail at home and get a hold of people. It is just inconvenient. I am just wondering if you can hit a number and automatically be forwarded to a person in the department who can handle emergency calls and direct your call that way, or do they only have a choice of leaving a message? Thank you.
