Due to the cards importance, there are certain obligations you have during your studies, regarding your student ID card. These are outlined below: 

• While on campus, you should have your student ID card with you at all times,
• You should never leave you student ID card unattended or accessible in public or University spaces. For example, if you are studying in the Library, you should take your card with you, especially if you plan on exiting the Library turnstiles.
• If a member of Â鶹ÊÓƵ Staff (such as Security) or an Official from the Students Union asks to inspect your card, you must provide them with your student ID card.
• You should never allow another person to use your card, including fellow students, friends or family. Cases where this occurs may be treated as student misconduct.
