There were three departmental mergers. Student Payment Services now reports to the Office of Finance and Administration. NEIU Parking Office and Vending was integrated into University Police and Facilities Management added Property Control, Shipping and Receiving and Mail Services to its responsibilities.... University Police (UP) faced a budget reduction of $650,000. Despite this they were able to continue operating on campus 24/7 during the pandemic closures. UP also established new ways of reporting to “provide easy access to online safety resources” and “updated the emergency alert system to allow text notifications and automatic alerts to all NEIU email accounts.”
