The Headlands campus office hours are from 8:30am - 5:00pm. After 5:00 pm, voicemail messages can be left for students with the Environmental Science Operations Manager at (415) 332-5771, ext. 24. For EMERGENCIES ONLY, the Campus Coordinator can be reached during non-office hours by calling our call service at (415) 462-3201.

I posted my cell phone number on the paper version of the newsletter. If there is an emergency and we are on the bus, you can call my cell phone. My understanding is that there is no service at Headlands' campus.
