Buying Software From WSU

Hint: prices are low.

Information from the WSU Software Clearinghouse (email to faculty with information for students):
Many of you are familiar with the Microsoft Campus Agreement, which provides several Microsoft products at a discount to participating departments. Wayne State University has now entered into a contract with Microsoft that allows currently enrolled students to purchase discounted Microsoft Office and the Windows XP Upgrade.

These essential tools are the same as the retail versions and the versions available through the Campus Agreement for faculty and staff.

Knowing this technology is now affordable to students, you can incorporate the use of this software in the development of your course materials and as tools to teach a class. Using a WSU AccessID and password, students can easily and safely order the following software on a secure Web site:

• Microsoft Office XP Professional for Windows
• Microsoft Office XP Standard for Windows
• Microsoft Office v.X for Mac OS X
• Microsoft Windows XP Professional Upgrade

We are very pleased to announce this latest program from the Software Clearinghouse, a service of WSU Computing & Information  Technology. The Software Clearinghouse is funded in part by the Student Technology Fee portion of the Omnibus Fees and provides free antivirus software, Endnote bibliographic software, and other software.

Sincerely,
