Elies Kouider, PhD COB Monthly Colloquium Coordinator Business Data Analytics program Coordinator Marketing Department College of Business Holiday Shopping and Big Rapids Campus Deliveries The Ferris, Big Rapids campus, Mail Center delivery and pickup of parcels and mail is intended for University use only. We are seeking the support of the Big Rapids campus community to ensure that your personal packages and mailings do not become lost in the holiday shuffle. Please do not use campus mailing addresses as the ship to address for personal items. Our system is not equipped or staffed to handle personal holiday shopping. The Mail Center staff will make a judgement call in determining to deliver the package if believed to be University business or contact the addressee requesting that they come to the mail center to pick up the package. This message may also apply to UPS packages as well. It is common during the holidays for a UPS package to make the final leg of its journey via US Mail. This means a package that you thought was going to come directly to your office for instance via UPS may in fact end up at the local postal distribution center. Thank you for your support.

Knollview Drive Big Rapids, MI Marijuana Proposal 1 University Policy Statement November 2018 To: Faculty, Staff, and Students From: Jeanine Ward-Roof Vice President for Student Affairs Jerry L. Scoby Vice President Administration and Finance On November 6, 2018, Michigan voters approved the passage of Proposal 1, which legalizes recreational marijuana use and possession by individuals 21 years and older. With the passage of Proposal 1, it is important for everyone in the University community to understand that this new state law does not change any University policy or federal law prohibiting the use and possession of marijuana by employees, students, and guests on any University-owned or leased property or during University business or events, whether on or off-campus. As a recipient of federal aid, the University is obligated to comply with federal law regarding the use and possession of marijuana, including the Drug-Free Workplace Act and the Drug-Free Schools and Communities Act Amendments of These acts require the University to maintain a drug-free workplace and educational environment, and these federal laws take precedence over the new state law legalizing marijuana. University policies will continue to comply with federal law. Therefore, the use and possession of marijuana in any form and for any purpose, including medical marijuana, continues to violate the University s policies on alcohol and other drugs and is prohibited at the University. Employees and students found violating the University s policies on alcohol and other drugs are subject to disciplinary or corrective action. Please see the related FAQ document for additional information on legalized marijuana.
