This is a reminder to all members of our campus community, that as of tomorrow Wednesday June 7, 2006 the UMBC Campus Card will be under the protective umbrella of the UMBC Identity Management System (IdMS). This important step is toward preventing identity theft and will require the use of the New Campus Card.
For those who do not have the New Campus Card, please contact the Card office at X2-2273 (C-CARD), to make arrangements to get one.
A special note to those using the Card for Access Control: Hold on to the "Old Card" until you have verified that the New Card will grant you access to the appropriate areas. It is possible that the Access Control database may require additional time to convert, and the "Old Card" will be kept in service should the need arise.
All are reminded that the "Old Card" does contain your SSN on the magnetic stripe and we encourage the destruction of the "Old Card", after you have verified full functionality of the "New Card".
All should feel free to drop off the "Old Card" at the Campus Card window in the University Center if you wish for us to properly dispose of it.
Door Access questions should be directed to X5-3970 and X5-1222, or email to campussecurity@umbc.edu
