Topical Conference Call Connection Info:

Telephone Info:

To tap into the high capacity line that we use for conference calls, dial (218) 339-2626, enter 705874# when prompted for an access code.   Please do your best to avoid using a cell phone or a speaker phone for topical conference calls; our high capacity line is more sensitive to electronic disturbance than more traditional lines, and often generates electronic noise when cell phones or speaker phones are utilized.

After you are connected, you can help us maintain good line quality by muting your line if there is background noise in your area or if you need to step away to talk with a colleague.  Simply enter "6" to mute, and enter "6" again to un-mute.  When you are in a muted state, you will be able to hear us, but we will not be able to hear you (or anything going on in your office).

Please do not place us on "hold".  We have learned to ask this because In the past, we have faced the challenge of dealing with the distraction of "on hold" music when someone placed  us on hold.  If you need to step away, please use the mute option (enter "6") or hang up and call again when you can rejoin us.
