PO box to be mandatory for on-campus residents

Students living on campus will be required to purchase a post office box at the soon-to-be-renovated post office starting next semester at $70 per year.  The regulation comes with the University’s new mail carrier, which will take over operations from the United States Postal Service.

The University will hand over operations to Ricoh USA because  the USPS office on campus was one of six Baton Rouge locations recommended for closure by USPS, according to Director of University Auxiliary Services Jason Tolliver.  The $70 standard box with the new provider is an increase from the $44 per year for a basic P.O. box with USPS, according to Tolliver.

Postal Service could cut costs by closing some offices

Published: 05:10 p.m., Monday, January 24, 2011

Business was good Monday at the post office on the Lamar University campus with customers sending packages or retrieving mail from boxes.

I hope I get my package.

“I wish that I had boxed goods waiting for me. Unfortunately, the Package Center doesn’t have it’s act together, and I don’t have any of my books for this semester, even though I ordered them weeks ago.”

“Ordered early because I KNOW that this happens every semester; bought them from Amazon; got free 2-day shipping on most of them because I’m in college; used the same address that I’ve been using for four years. Still no books” (continued here).
