Office MaxOffice Max Helping CSU Cut Costs with Recycled Toner

Want to save the CSU $500, 000 a year in toner cost and help the environment at the same time? Through a systemwide procurement effort, Office Max has developed a recycled toner and ink cartridges supplier, KTEK, at cost slashing prices. After successful products site testing this past year, KTEK recycled cartridges are the preferred CSU toner product, replacing HP cartridges on the Office max contract deepest-discounted list. Individuals may still purchase HP cartridges, but at a higher price.

All KTEK cartridges come with a one-year warranty. KTEK is a California Certified Small Business (SBE) and a Disabled Veteran Business Enterprise (DVBE). For more information, contact Lynne Trainor 4-3239 or lynne.trainor@sonoma.edu.

Faculty Writing ProgramFind Help Finishing Writing Projects with the Faculty Writing Program

For those with scholarly work to do, conference papers to revise, articles to write, or chapters to draft, the Faculty Writing Program may be a solution to finishing those projects. Participants may choose from three separate seminars that meet every other week to discuss members' scholarly writings in progress. Perfect attendance is not a prerequisite for participating in the program. New tenure-track faculty receive first priority, but all faculty are welcome to participate, and may even join a seminar group that has already begun. For more information, contact Kathy Charmaz at 4-3955 or email charmaz@sonoma.edu.
