You’ve got mail — package lockers replace mailboxes at Providence College
The copper-faced Friar mailboxes, with combinations remembered long after graduation, have been retired this semester, replaced by lockers for packages — the kind of mail students receive nowadays.
When a package is ready for pick up, students are notified by email and have 24 hours to respond. They use a QR code, or an app, to locate and open the locker.
The new facility, which can be accessed 24-7, is located on the lower level of Raymond Hall.
