  1. APPLICABILITY TO OTHER AUGUSTA STATE UNIVERSITY HIV POLICIES: More specific written policies may be developed as needed by Department Chairpersons. All policies must be compatible with the university-wide policy.

Insurance
By special arrangement the university approves a student health insurance policy which also provides benefits for accident and accidental death and dismemberment. The magnitude of student participation in the plan allows the insurer to offer excellent benefits for a minimal premium. Applications for student insurance are available in the Office of Student Services in Boykin Wright Hall.

Library (737-1744)

These and other electronic information resources are available in the library, on the campus computer network, and, in most cases, by remote access. Contact the Reese Library reference department (737-1748) for current availability and access procedures. Materials from other libraries may be obtained through interlibrary loan.
