UNIVERSITY STUDENT IDENTIFICATION CARD
HANDBOOK OF OPERATING PROCEDURES, SECTION 2, CHAPTER 7 https://www.utep.edu/hoop/section-2/university-student-identification.html
The University provides a University identification card (ID card) to each student for University identifi- cation and administrative purposes. The ID card remains the property of the University. Students are ex- pected to have their ID cards in their possession at all times while on the campus and to maintain proper and reasonable care for the ID card. Students may be asked to produce the ID card and/or to identify themselves at any time by a faculty member or a University official acting in the course of his/her duties. A student’s failure or refusal to produce his/her ID card in response to such a request may result in denial of University services or activities to which the student is otherwise entitled, and/or disciplinary action. Only currently validated ID cards in good condition will be accepted for University purposes.
