  • Intra-campus envelopes are not to be used when sending information to students. 
  • All outgoing department packages require a shipping document.
  • Mail left at the Phillips Hall Post office in the morning  leaves Ithaca on the same truck as our afternoon pick up.

International mail containing more than just documents requires a customs form.
