The Auraria Campus Bookstore has a new discount program for purchasing Dell computers and Microsoft Office software. The program is expected to save students, faculty and staff about five percent off the regular Dell PC pricing. Custom configurations and other options can vary the savings. The full working versions of Office will not expire over a period of time; however, they are not refundable. In addition, students may now purchase Microsoft Office student licenses for less than $80. Student licenses, however, are not refundable or upgradeable. William T.
