Multi-Functional Devices: A Desktop Alternative

Multi-functional devices (MFDs) are centrally located print, copy and scanning devices. The MFDs are a valuable resource, especially in light of current  supply chain and chip production issues that are affecting the availability of desktop printers. Their use also reduces plastic consumption and waste associated with desktop printers. If you need help finding and MFD near you, or would like assistance in using them, please contact the Copy Center at x1935. Instructions for use can also be found here. Saving files as e-documents rather than printing is another great way to be kind to both the planet and departmental budgets!

Greener Than Yesterday…

Have you noticed anything different with your Copy Center jobs?

To reduce the volume of single use plastics, the Copy Center has made some changes in the packaging of copy jobs sent through inter-campus mail. Most jobs will arrive in reusable boxes or bags. Please help us on our mission to reduce plastic pollution by placing the reusable containers in the outgoing mail for return to the Copy Center, where it will be used to deliver future copy jobs.

Multi-functional devices (MFDs) are centrally located print, copy and scanning devices. The MFDs are a valuable resource, especially in light of current  supply chain and chip production issues that are affecting the availability of desktop printers. Their use also reduces plastic consumption and waste associated with desktop printers.

Commencement Parking

With overlap between Commencement and final exams this year, Parking Management has made some adjustments to ease parking concerns for students coming to campus to take exams. The following lots will be available for student parking during final exams Thursday, May 6 & Friday, May 7, from 7:00 am until 10:00 pm.

• Thornton Street Lot
• Pizza Hut lot
• William Street lot
• GW lot
• Framar Lot

During this time and through the weekend the Alvey Parking Deck and Sunken Road lots will be reserved for Commencement parking only.

Other standard parking rules still apply. Students should not park in reserved spaces, accessible spaces without a hang tag, or fire lines. Contact Jean Elliott at (540) 654-1129 if you have any questions.
