Welcome back! As we gear up for the new school year please take a moment to review the ACU adopted Energy Conservation and Building Management Guidelines. We have done a great job in reducing our energy usage across campus and I want to keep the momentum going. If you are finding your area is constantly too cold/hot, please let facilities management know as soon as possible. We also want to remind you that Network Copiers are exempt from being shut off. It is important that these remain on for billing purposes and updates. There is an energy savor mode that can be enabled to allow savings while still being able to communicate on the network. If you have any further questions please email Facilities Management or ben.rude@acu.edu. Thank you and have a great semester!

On Monday, and Tuesday, August 15-16 the Mail Room will be having a soft close in order to transition to our new service area (the previous location of The Depot). During this time frame we will not be delivering mail to those departments who are on route. We are requesting that departments, refrain from picking up mail until Wednesday. During this time we will also not be able to process any outgoing mail. We are aware that there are departments that have pertinent mail and packages coming in. In this instance, please email or call Chistow Langston at 2742 to make arrangements. Thank you for your patience during this transition.

As a reminder the warehouse staff will no long pick up outgoing packages. There are overnight drop boxes located in the Campus Center, or you may leave your UPS Ground packages at the Campus Store dock on a shelf by the back door of the Campus Store receiving area labels for UPS Pick-Ups . If you have any questions or need further assistance please contact the Procurement Office by email purchasing@acu.edu or call 2246.

NCAA regulations permit an ACU coach or staff member to provide a student-athlete or an entire team with an occasional meal on infrequent and special occasions, but these meals must take place at the individual’s home, on campus, or at a facility that is regularly used for home competition.

A few important reminders regarding occasional meals:
•       Southland Conference regulations limit occasional meals to once per month per student-athlete
•       A prospect enrolled in summer school and attending classes during the summer term may attend an occasional meal
•       A signee may attend an occasional meal prior to the first day of classes only if they have arrived on campus with the intent of staying at ACU to attend classes that semester

All occasional meals must be pre-approved by the Compliance Office. To seek approval to provide an occasional meal, you will need complete an Occasional Meal Form in the Athletic Compliance. For more information on this process, contact James Feeney (325.674.2330)

The University Procurement Office and Warehouse have a few changes in services and hours of operation effective May 9th. The Warehouse will be closing at 4:00 daily. We will also be suspending the outgoing package pick up service at 2:00 each day. The warehouse staff will no longer pick up outgoing packages.
