If you suspect that an asset or piece of equipment has been stolen, please call University Police (UPD) at 878-3333 immediately. UPD will send an officer to obtain all the necessary data on the missing property and the circumstances surrounding its disappearance. The officer will need to know the asset number, description, manufacturer, model, serial number, and cost. If the asset is recorded on inventory, the data should be readily available. A copy of the police report will be sent to Business Services, which will then retire the asset from the department inventory. If you file a theft report with an off-campus police department, you must also file a separate report with UPD.

New York State, the State University of New York, and the college administration have long recognized that there are many legitimate reasons for faculty and staff members to remove property from Buffalo State for work-related functions. All Buffalo State property, whether recorded on the departmental inventory or not, that is removed from campus by faculty or staff members for work-related functions must be identified on a Loan of College Property form (PDF). Assets transported back and forth on a continual basis (such as laptop computers) must also be identified on a Loan of College Property form. This form can be retrieved from the Campus Services website.

Please call ext. 6835 with questions.

The blue bins on campus are for paper recycling. All types of office paper can be recycled in these bins. This includes junk mail, envelopes (with or without plastic windows), fliers, brochures, postcards, newspaper, phone books, and all types and sizes of magazines and catalogs.

If you have any questions about what can or cannot be recycled or any other recycling concerns, please contact Lauren Bostaph, staff assistant in Campus Services, 878-6835. Your participation is appreciated.

In select circumstances, property owned by Buffalo State can be included ("traded in") as part of a procurement transaction to acquire a new or replacement piece of property. "Property" is defined as vehicles, boats, furniture, or equipment where a trade-in option is available.

The Property Trade-In Form (PDF) should be used to secure the appropriate campus approvals for the disposition of the property to be traded in. The form is available on the Campus Services website.

Please call Business Services at ext. 6835 with questions. Thank you.
