Each time an individual makes a "purchase," the amount is subtracted from the original funds deposited. Debitek Machines are located in the lobby of Graham Hall (near the Post Office) and in Eggleston Library (main floor).

Questions regarding the use of hazardous materials or material safety data sheets (MSDS) should be directed to the supervisor of the department, the Biology Laboratory Technician, or the Department of Human Resources.
Health Center
The Moore Student Health Center is a resource primarily for students; however, faculty and staff are encouraged to use the Center for assistance with routine health monitoring (for instance, blood pressure and blood glucose). The Center is also able to provide assistance with general health information, locating appropriate health care facilities, information about medications, and general health counseling. The College Physician does not routinely provide services for faculty and staff at the Health Center. The nursing staff is available to see faculty and staff from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m., Monday through Friday during the academic year and on a less regular schedule at other times.
Identification Cards
At orientation new employees are offered the opportunity to have a photo ID card prepared. The ID card provides proof of employment; serves as a charge card for the Bookstore, Dining Hall, and the Tiger Inn; and is a debit card for the debit card system on campus. The Business Operations Assistant in the Business Office (second floor of Cabell House) prepares ID cards. If an ID card is lost, a new card may be prepared at the same location.
