Human Resource Services Has Relocated

On Friday, May 9, 2025, Human Resource Services moved to its new permanent location at 102 Lowden Hall.

Services at the previous location (1515 West Lincoln Highway) have been discontinued. Going forward, the most effective ways to connect with HRS representatives will be via email, phone or by scheduling appointments directly with specific representatives.
