Technical Services
Student Association (SA) Technical Services provides sound, stage, lighting, and projection support and advice for student events. The tech crew is made up of students hired on a yearly basis and trained in the many aspects of event management and technical reinforcement.
Arrangements must be made online at https://www.geneseo.edu/sa/satech. Qualified technicians must accompany all SA equipment throughout setup, performance, and strike (takedown).
SA equipment rental fees may be charged to Academic and Administrative Offices and Outside Conferences.
Textbooks
Incoming students are encouraged to preorder their textbooks online from the Geneseo University Bookstore, SUNY Geneseo's official source for textbooks. The Geneseo University Bookstore website (go.geneseo.edu/bookstore) shows real time inventory for used books, allowing you to purchase used books whenever possible. Books can also be purchased directly from the store, located in the MacVittie College Union. Freshmen are encouraged to pickup their books from the store on move-in day. The Geneseo University Bookstore will also buy back books at the end of the semester depending upon local need and national demand.
The Geneseo University Bookstore accepts every major credit card, checks, cash, and the Campus Cash Account. School supplies, gifts, art supplies, Geneseo apparel, and many other items are also available at the store.

The Student Association operates a box office that provides ticketing and sales services for student organizations. Most Activities Commission ticket sales are run through the Ticket Office. The Vacation Bus Program, Airport Shuttle, and Fax Service are also administered through the Ticket Office. In addition, for on-site sales, cash boxes are available. The Ticket Office is located on the first level of the MacVittie Union, Room 113. For information contact the SA Services Manager at (585) 245-5873.
