Business Cards
Business cards must be printed according to the guidelines set by the college.

UH encourages all employees to do business with Historically Underutilized Business (HUB) vendors whenever possible. These are businesses that have been historically underutilized because of their identification as women or as members of certain minority groups, including Black Americans, Hispanic Americans, Asian Pacific Americans, and Native Americans who have suffered the effects of discriminatory practices or similar insidious circumstances over which they have no control
A list of HUB vendors can be found here. [xls]
Telephone Equipment and Long Distance Calling
All telephone equipment incurs a monthly rental cost. Display and multi-line model phones are more expensive to rent than basic, single line phones. Departmental budget constraints should be taken into account when deciding which model to order or continue to lease. Instructions regarding the functionality of ROLM phones can be found on pages 2-4 of the UH phonebook.
Some staff positions will be assigned long distance codes. These codes are assigned to individuals and should not be shared. They are used when making long distance business related phone calls from on campus. These codes may only be used to place business related long-distance calls, no personal phonecall expenses are allowed.
