Homecoming is just around the corner, and the Alumni team would love to partner with you as you plan your upcoming events! Note: Due to ongoing health and safety conversations related to COVID-19, all potential Homecoming event plans must be reviewed by Alumni Relations and University Events to make sure that the planning will meet university requirements for the fall. Please fill out this form with your initial ideas by Friday, July 17. We will be in touch with you this summer to help answer any questions you might have and give you more details about the process for approving events on campus this fall.

ACU has an exclusive agreement with PepsiCo. The contract allows for the sale or promotion of any product available only through PepsiCo on our campus. In order to stay in compliance, all beverages must be purchased through PepsiCo. We ask your help and cooperation in honoring both the stated intent and the spirit of the contract. Available on campus, there is a selection of drinks stocked in the Warehouse or you can place special orders through PepsiCo. All prices have been compared to market value. To help offset the cost, we are discounting the price on all drink purchases through the warehouse and PepsiCo. Prices are subject to changes as market value fluctuates. We will commit that pricing will not rise above $6.99 for soft drinks and $3.99 for water, until May 31, 2021

The following are a list of items that must be ordered through the Warehouse. Please send a completed Warehouse order form (available on myACU Quicklinks) by email to warehouse@groupmail.acu.edu.

All special order Pepsi products not listed above must be purchased using a Banner requisition. For more information, visit our website at www.acu.edu/procurement and for assistance regarding special orders or instructions on how to enter a requisition, please contact the Procurement office at purchasing@acu.edu or by calling extension 2246.
