Identification

Student Identification Card

When you register, you will have your picture taken for a student identification card in the Registrar's Office. This card, when accompanied by the appropriate stickers, allows you to take advantage of a number of campus activities. If you live on campus or have bought a meal plan, it is your dining card. It is needed for some of the free meals offered to students and it is always your library card. It is an identification (ID) at some off campus events where student discounts are offered. For example movie theaters and art shows.
