Services

 

Communication

Telephones have individual numbers that can be dialed directly by a caller.  Calls made within the campus require dialing the last four digits only.  Calls outside the campus require dialing 9 and the full number.  Personal long distance calls are not allowed.
Each telephone is equipped with voice mail.  Detailed directions for programming and retrieving messages are included in the University’s Faculty & Staff Directory. http://www.umsl.edu/phonebook.html 
The University Directory is distributed each fall and is also available within Outlook. 
The College’s Support System Administrator (x6733) is to be contacted to report telephone problems.
Individual pagers will no longer be distributed to faculty.  All existing pagers still in use by faculty will continue to stay active if needed. When appropriate they need to be returned to the finance administrative assistant (x7512).
There are four fax machines within the College. The College maintains a central calendar in the Nursing Faculty and Staff MyGateway organization (http://mygateway.umsl.edu/webapps/portal/frameset.jsp), under the Nursing Calendar menu item.  Faculty members are asked to check this calendar on a frequent basis to stay up to date on important meetings and event.

Contracts

Internally, the preparation and processing of any contract, for any event, regardless of funding sources, is

only handled through the College of Nursing’s Grants & Contract specialist, with backup from the fiscal assistant in the Dean’s office of administration.

After the Grants & Contract specialist/fiscal assistant gathers information related to the event, the appropriate contract will be chosen. 

Please allow enough time, approximately 4 weeks, prior to the event, to request a contract written.

The following is a listing of the various contracts available for use.

General Purchasing

Office supplies needed to support faculty activities are provided by the College.  Purchase request forms need to be approved by Supervisor/Dean/fiscal officer and forwarded to the finance administrative assistant.  This form can be found in the Nursing Faculty and Staff MyGateway organization (
