Students, faculty and staff are urged to update shipping addresses with banks, credit card companies, and online retailers to avoid delays in the delivery of important items. Only mail and packages delivered via USPS can be forwarded. Items delivered by UPS, FedEx, Amazon, and other carriers cannot be forwarded.

Copy Center

The Copy Center staff will be primarily working in the College Post Office. However, you may continue to submit copy and print requests via the portal as normal. Please be advised that specialized jobs (requiring special paper types) may require additional time. In person drop-offs or pickups should be done by essential staff only at the College Post Office window.

Please also note that construction in Decker has resulted in limited access to the College Post Office. Currently, The College Post Office is ONLY accessible via the middle-level entrance (near the ATM machine).
