Therefore, we can only accept cash for all USPS purchases. The university requires all faculty and staff to receive their personal mail at home or permanent address. Occasional correspondence from friends and colleagues is not considered personal mail. USD should not be given as your permanent address unless you live on campus. Receiving personal mail such as utility bills, CD's, tapes, credit cards, bank accounts, magazines or periodicals not relating in any way to your job, overburdens the already heavy volume of mail received and slows the delivery process.
Departments are responsible for forwarding faculty or staff mail once they have left the department.
The USD mail center is not a licensed post office. This limits our services. However, insured, registered, post office express or money orders, certificates of mailing and international package requests must be taken to the post office. The nearest post office is the Linda Vista branch located on Comstock. Go east on Linda Vista Road for a mile and a half, take a right on Comstock.
