Reminders

From Security

Please watch your speed when driving on our campus, especially near your garage entrances and exits. Thank you.

From Facilities

If you don’t have a service contract with a HVAC company, your furnace filter may need to be replaced. Replacing the filter is an easy way to lengthen the life of your system. Indoor air quality: A clean air filter will remove most of the dust and pollen particles that would otherwise be in the air. This is particularly important for anyone suffering from allergies or asthma. Please call Facilities at 678.619.0478 if you need assistance.
