Bookstore

Husson University's Bookstore is operated by Barnes & Noble Education.  This partnership enables us to offer the Eagle Book Bundle (EBB), an equitable access program that allows all full-time undergraduate students to receive all of their required textbooks for $25 per credit hour in which they are enrolled.  All full-time undergraduate students are automatically enrolled in EBB, and the charge is included on their billing ledger.  Students are encouraged to conduct a cost comparison each semester to ensure they will benefit from EBB, and if not they should opt out and purchase/rent their books à la carte.  Students who remain opted in must confirm their order 30 days before the start of each semester. For more information on the EBB, please visit https://www.husson.edu/student-life/facilities/bookstore. The bookstore also offers a robust assortment of Husson University branded apparel and gifts, as well as school supplies and a small selection of technology products.

Safety and Security Services

Husson University is committed to providing our faculty, staff, students, and guests with a safe and friendly environment both on and around our campus. Our Safety & Security Department staff consists of 13 full-time and 5 part-time Security Officers providing 24/7 campus coverage. Officers patrol the campus, respond to complaints, investigate incidents, and provide an array of services, such as assisting with vehicle issues, unlocking doors, issuing Husson University photo ID cards, managing lost and found property, and providing “safe walk” escorts for students and employees on campus. We conduct drills and engage in planning, training, and emergency preparedness activities. Each year, Husson University publishes an Annual Security Report which includes public criminal and fire safety statistics for our campus. Maine is one of the safest states in our nation, and Husson University is a particularly safe environment, but because crimes can and do occasionally occur on our campus, we foster a strong working relationship with the Bangor Police Department to resolve incidents when appropriate.  We truly believe that we all share a responsibility to keep our community a safe and enjoyable place to live and visit.  To assist us in this collaborative safety approach, we strongly encourage all members of our community to report any concerning behavior, statement, or incident involving our Husson community.

Our Safety & Security Department manages Husson's free EagleSafe mobile app. Along with the dining menu and hours, athletic information, and campus activities, the app includes safety tools and features such as Mobile Blue Light and Social Escape. The app also allows you to anonymously report a concern, call for assistance, access emergency plans, or share your location with a trusted friend.

Husson University uses the Rave emergency notification system. In an emergency, this system will be used to notify you by email, text, social media, and the website, as well as display messages on the campus digital boards and subscriber devices. The Department collaborates with Student Life to offer CPR, personal safety, de-escalation classes, and other programs. For additional information, please use the information on our website to learn how to report suspicious activity, prevent crimes, and practice responsible behavior.
