The Write Stuff


The Write Stuff
Even something as simple as that pen you hold in your hand can play an important part in how we save money and better manage university resources during these economic times.
Our efforts showed that there were 723 types of pens purchased at UW-Madison last year.  Of that, 295 were different types of black pens.  Imagine if, as a campus, we bought a smaller selection of pens.  That small change could mean savings of about $35,000 a year–funds that could support a staff position or better benefit our educational mission.
