Why We Love Our HUBs... No we aren't talking about our husbands here, we are talking about Historically Underutilized Businesses. What are HUBs you ask? Well in short they are for-profit businesses in which at least 51 percent of its ownership is controlled and actively managed by a woman, minority, and/or service-disabled veteran. So why do we love our HUBs? Because they are typically smaller businesses that don't always have access to all the resources that larger corporations have but are still just as competitive and essential to the economic growth of our community. So the next time you need to make a purchase, we highly encourage you to visit and search for a HUB vendor on the Centralized Master Bidders List. FMI, please contact the Purchasing Office...

Security Proofpoint... Angelo State University receives over 14 million emails every month.

After Hours Call... We understand that not everyone on campus works the typical 8:00 - 5:00 job; so what does one do if they see something like a spontaneous river flowing through campus, hear fire alarms going off, or maybe even smell a hint of something burning and it's after the typical work hours. Give a ring to the University Police Department at 325-942-2017 and they can contact the appropriate person(s) responsible for taking care of the situation.
