Campus Security & Public Safety

Campus Security received a report that 2 GU students had packages that were delivered to their off-campus residence while on winter break.  When they came back from break, the packages were gone.  One of the packages contained text books and the other contained shoes.  

It is unfortunate that this happened to our community members but also reminds us that there may be better ways to have your mail delivered when you are gone.  Here are some things that you may not have known:

• Whether you live on campus or off, you may rent a mailbox from the Gonzaga Mail Room for $35.00 per school year.  Right now they are offering mailbox rentals for $20.00 for the rest of the school year.  If you live on or off-campus and you have a mailbox through Gonzaga ,you can have packages delivered to the secure mail room.
• The United States Parcel Service offers the following service if you will be away from your off-campus residence for any period of time:
