Identification, Please

    Pictured above is a Lee University ID card, which is EXTREMELY important. Doing anything on campus becomes impossible without this small piece of plastic. You might as well forget getting into the dorm room or getting a chicken sandwich with a meal plan without the ID card. Also, without the ID card, you will not get credit for going to chapel. After the chapel service is over, your card is scanned by a friendly fellow Lee student on the way out. If you do not have the card in your possession, tough luck!
    Making sure you have it with you at all times is vital to surviving on campus, and it may be one of the most important aspects of a Lee student's daily routines. However, there will be instances in which it is misplaced! And mom is not here to find it for you! As you can see, certain measures have been taken in case such instances occur. The first question you will be asked if you tell someone about a misplaced ID card (or any item for that matter) is "Have you checked with campus safety?" Campus safety is a GREAT part of Lee, but we'll save that for a later post. So, if you happen to find or misplace a card, report to campus safety first. Chances are they have it for you.
     I know from personal experience that campus life is nearly impossible without the ID card. I tend to lose things. I have "misplaced" my idea card at least twice already in this semester. If an ID is lost, a new one can be purchased for five dollars at the Campus Safety building.
     Anyway, the ID card idea is a great way for students to keep everything in order by using one card for several different tasks, such as getting a meal and opening doors. Without them, fumbling through keys and swiping debit cards would be a must. (And we all know what parents think about swiping a debit card too much!) So keep that ID card close to you at all times.
     The IDs affect students more than they probably realize. A student cannot function throughout the day without an Identification card. Well, they could function, if by function they mean sleep outside because they can't get in the dorm, have chapel probation because they weren't "technically" there, and starve because they can't use a meal plan. So, it's pretty important.
