Students who need help with the cost of textbooks may be interested in a Parent’s Association loan program. Bucks for Books provides loans of up to $500 for books to any currently enrolled student. Loans repaid by the end of the trimester accrue no interest.

The program is only valid for use at the RHIT bookstore. For more information, contact Melinda Middleton or Luann Hastings in Student Financial Aid.

JP Morgan Chase purchasing cards are being issued to campus buyers. Staff and faculty are finding it easier to manage their campus buying as the result of the new program.

These ‘P’ cards are intended to replace check requests and purchase orders where appropriate.

Policies in the current Purchasing Guide must still be followed; card purchases must be less than $2500 and cannot include prohibited items such as lab animals or controlled substances, nor be used for cash advances or travel expenses. At the end

of every budget month, departments approve purchases and submit receipts to the Business Office.

The ADS website contains additional information in the Cardholder Guide.

Direct questions to Bob Watson or Dan Wells, in Administrative Services.
