LSU switches mail service

LSU is officially switching to Ricoh USA to privatize mailing services on campus starting next fall, the university decided this week.

The move will cost students more and require students living on campus to purchase mailboxes, but also should solve long-term mailing services problems on campus, said Jason Tolliver, LSU director of auxiliary services.

The expedited privatization process is the result of ongoing state budget cuts to colleges and LSU being placed on the planned list of U.S. Postal Service closures nationally amid federal budget problems, he said.

The end result should be better quality in a consolidated, one-stop shop for mailing, copying, binding and graphic design services on the bottom floor of the LSU Student Union, he said.

Campus mail theft raises concerns

CHARLES TIMS STAFF WRITER

A Wartburg student’s mother called her and asked why she hadn’t thanked her grandmother for the gift cards she sent her.

The student was unaware of receiving anything besides an envelope. Later campus security informed her she was a victim of theft, in which her gift cards were stolen.

John Myers, director of campus security and safety, said the gift cards were mailed out Dec. 15, but when the student checked her mail box on Jan. 11, there was nothing but a torn envelope in her box.

Campus snail mail: efficient or problematic?

Once mail reaches Western’s campus it is available to the recipient within two hours, said Judy Magnuson, Western mail processing manager, as long as everything works according to plan.

The mail services department put the mail system at Western together, said Magnuson. It fits the needs of Western, she said.

“Our mail system is a homegrown system,” Magnuson said.
