The RunnerID Card
RunnerCard
The RunnerCard is the student ID card, library card, health-services card, and copying/printing
card. It provides you with a picture and a nine-digit identification number that is printed on
the front of the card, along with a bar code. Your Social Security number is not on the card,
nor is it in the magnetic strip on the back. To get your card, you must have your picture taken
at the RunnerCard office. The RunnerCard office is located in lower level of the
Walter Stiern Library, Room 1B,
Debit card
The RunnerCard serves as a debit card, with a limit of $300. You will be able to purchase goods
and services at various campus outlets simply by swiping the card through a magnetic-strip reader.
The computer keeps track of your card’s balance. You may add money to your card at the cashier’s
office, the bookstore and "Value Transfer stations," or VTS machines located in the library.
The card can also be used to purchase snacks and soft drinks from some campus vending machines.
Security
With the RunnerCard, your money is safe. No one else can use your card once you report it lost.
As soon as you report it lost, your card issue number is changed so that only you have access to
the cash via your new card. It costs $5 to replace the first time you lose it, $10 the second time
and thereafter.
Maintenance of card
Treat your RUNNERCARD as you would any bank issued credit or debit card. Keep your RUNNERCARD away
from all magnetic fields that may demagnetize or decode your card. Do not punch holes, bend or
scratch the card.
