I've yet to find a town map of State College in PSU libraries or published by the state, so for now this page has to suffice. Walking around campus, there's some geography notes I've found interesting:
- 1992 map: what on earth are those phone numbers? I've seen 7 digit phone numbers (area code is implied), but never 5 digit ones.
This is a product of the phone system the college uses. Using a phone within the college's system, they only need to dial the 5 numbers shown. The 1st number is the last number of the local extension (ie: 623-3064. If you needed to call from outside the school's system, just dial the 7 digit number, which is now probably area code plus 7 digit number). Each professor's office, classroom, administration and other offices all probably had 5 digit numbers as well.
State offices in Trenton, NJ have the same (or at least similar) system, although some Divisions and Departments have changed to a newer system that involves dialing all 10 digits.
