40.9.0 Identification Card
It is the policy of the State University of New York (SUNY) to issue identification cards to students at its campuses. SUNY Canton requires all students to carry a valid SUNY Canton identification card to ensure the safety of students and the entire campus community.
Your SUNY Canton Identification (ID) card is your official identification as a SUNY Canton student. You will use your card to access your meal plan, ROO Express, Campus Cash, and residence hall. You will also use it to access the library, student activities, and fitness center. The card must be surrendered upon request of any member of the College Staff. The ID is not to be loaned or used by anyone other than the proper owner. Lost cards should be reported on the GET MOBILE app. Replacement cards can be purchased at “The Window” at the Student Mailroom or by calling (315)386-7506. Stolen cards should be reported to University Police. For more information visit the College Association ID Card webpage.
Applicability of the Policy
The identification card (including digital identification cards) must be presented or surrendered upon request of a duly authorized College official, including but not limited to residence hall staff, University Police, Student Affairs staff, and students, contractors, or other staff authorized by the University to supervise campus events, activities, and residence halls. Individuals may be required to reveal their faces to confirm identity when needed to maintain campus safety or security. Upon request, students must show all identifying information shown on the card and/or surrender the card to the requesting official.
Intentional refusal to present or surrender a student identification card upon request by a College official; alteration or falsification of data on an identification card; creation and/or distribution of falsified identification cards; using an identification card to impersonate others; or refusal to reveal one’s face to confirm identity; are violations of this policy and may result in disciplinary action.
Procedures
It is the student’s responsibility to replace the identification card if it is confiscated, stolen, lost, bent, broken, or worn beyond the point of readability by College officials and/or card readers used by the College. Replacement cards may be obtained at the I.D. Office, in accordance with posted fees.
SUNY Canton identification cards are provided for appropriate identification use and access to buildings and services. The cards are not transferrable and are valid as long as the holder continues their specific affiliation with the campus. A campus identification card is to be used only by the person to whom it is issued. Lost or stolen cards should be reported immediately to College Association at (315) 386-7506 during business hours or University Police at (315) 386-7777 after business hours.
College Association and/or SUNY Canton are not liable for any charges or other damages incurred if an ID is lost and used by another.
40.9.1 Identification Card Replacement Charge
An original identification card is provided at no charge. A $20 replacement fee will be charged for all lost or damaged ID cards.
