Courtesy/Wallphones in classrooms

[Jtodd]

Talking with a contractor yesterday, he mentioned that it is now a requirement that every school classroom must have a courtesy/wallphone installed in them. Mostly due to the past tragedies in schools in the recent past. Does anyone know the details about this? I haven't heard about this. Does it apply to higher ed. or just elementary/high schools? I haven't been able to find anything and thought I'd ask.
Thanks for any information.

You could call the dept. of ed. or the state building codes division. If they don't know it's not a requirement.

Justin, I also work in a higher Ed environment and have not heard anything to that effect. Please post what you find out. Thanks.
