Finance and Administration is organized to provide non-academic support services to the University. It includes Fiscal Affairs functions overseen
by the Associate Vice President for Finance and Administration. These functions include programs managed by the University Controller: accounting
and financial reporting, processing of accounts payable, the Bursar’s functions in receivables, travel, grants management and payroll. The
Associate Vice President also oversees office for budgeting, and coordinates with the Director of Acquisitions for University purchasing, receiving,
and inventory control for fixed assets. Auxiliary Enterprises includes such business services as food services, bookstore, the Eastern Express
Card for debit card transactions at retail outlets, the off campus merchant program, and electronic access to all major University buildings. That
office also manages the CCTV System for electronic surveillance in public safety measures.
Public Safety programs include police protection, environmental health and safety, and the shuttle bus program. Facilities Management and
Planning manages all custodial and housekeeping services, trades staff in maintenance shops, grounds, and engineering and architectural staff who
design and oversee renovations and moderate-size capital projects. They also work closely with the State Department of Public Works and other
state agencies involved in large-scale renovations and the construction of new buildings.
