Here are some tips for our newest faculty and staff Bearcats!
- Make myBinghamton your home page; it will help you get to know the university and important information as you begin your career as a Bearcat!
- Wear your green and/or Binghamton apparel on Green Day Fridays to show your school spirit. Faculty and staff receive 10% off purchases at the campus bookstore with a valid Binghamton ID!
- Not sure where an office is located? Download the bMobi app for an interactive university map. The app also features the campus directory, events calendar, real-time bus locations, dining menu and more!
- Interested in eating on campus? Consider enrolling in the Faculty/Staff Flexible Dining plan which is a prepaid debit card system to ease the dining experience. Binghamton University Dining Services (BUDS) will add 10 cents on every dollar you add to your account - a 10% boost!
- Sign up for SUNY Perks at Work and enjoy discounts on restaurants, car rentals, hotels, electronics and more!
- Get your steps in; one loop around the "brain" is equal to walking 1.3 miles! While you're at it, join the Steps to B-Healthy walking program and earn rewards for reaching the monthly goal!
- Stay informed of University happenings! Sign up for dateline, the daily electronic newsletter. Also, be sure to register for B-Alert to receive text messages to your mobile device for emergency communication.
- Need a ride? Broome County Transit provides free bus rides to faculty and staff with a valid Binghamton University ID.
- Take advantage of the natural scenery on campus. Check out one of the hiking trails in the 182-acre Nature Preserve and look for one of its many inhabitants including deer, beaver and fox!
- Binghamton is on a mission to be the healthiest campus in the country. Consider getting a FitSpace membership and apply for the Health and Wellness Incentive Reimbursement program. Or check out the free Find your Fit classes offered approximately 5 times each semester. Faculty and staff also have complimentary access to the Recreation Center on weekdays 5:45 a.m. - 12:30 p.m., so get in a morning swim before work or jump in on a lunchtime basketball game!
