The Purchasing Department is responsible for providing the University Community with necessary goods and services at a reasonable cost.   It is the only department authorized to make purchase commitments for the University.  

The department endeavors to provide efficient and courteous service to the Campus Community, business representatives and salespeople.  Visits by sales representatives are welcome; it is suggested, however, that you call first to insure that the buyer or individual you wish to see is available.  If you would like to meet with a particular campus department, Purchasing can arrange that meeting for you.
