back of ID card

All of this starts with the stripe on the back of the card which is encoded with your student/staff ID number. This number identifies you with our computer access system and if you are participating on a meal plan it allows you access into the dining rooms . If you purchase Falcon Dollars, this stripe allows you to spend your Falcon Dollars in all Dining Services locations, in the Falcon Shop(external) , or to use the copy machines.
