Our Student Life dept manages our Id cards, which are funded through the
Finance Office.  Our ID printer is in the Student life office and the IDs
have bar code, mag stripe, and proximity chip for library access, food
service, and door access.

Hi All

Sorry for the cross-posting.

We at Western are interested in understanding how other Universities are
issuing ID Cards and the types of ID Cards that are currently in use in
other Universities?

I would appreciate answers on the following questions.

1. Which department manages the ID Card distribution?
2. How are the ID Cards funded?
3. Which department is your ID Card creation system located in? Is there
only 1 system for card creation or more than 1?
4. What type of ID Cards are you using? Mag stripe, java chip, iClass etc.

Many thanks in advance,

Ellen Smout
