Office of Student Life & Engagement

Resources

In an effort to better serve our student organizations, the Office of Student Life & Engagement has put together the following resources.

In an effort to provide additional support to our student organizations, the Office of Student Life & Engagement has made bulk purchases of some of the most frequently used items by our student organizations. This allows us to offer these items to our student organizations at a reduced price and provides a convenient alternative to purchasing them from a store or vendor.

After a student organization lets us know what supplies they want to order, our office will debit the corresponding total from their student organization operating account or agency account (an approved Request to Purchase Form must be on file). The items will then be packaged and available for pickup from the Office of Student Life & Engagement (JAH 105) during normal business hours.

The Following Items Are Available for Student Organizations to Purchase From Our Office:
