New RoyalCards for Faculty and Staff

A new RoyalCard design was developed and issued to incoming freshman students this past summer.  The card design features a landscape layout, a larger photo, and an expiration date.  In order for us to issue the new RoyalCard campus wide, every faculty and staff member must visit the Technology Support Center (TSC) at Alumni Memorial Hall over the next six months.  Because the new card format utilizes a larger photo, a new photograph must be taken before a replacement card is issued.  You will also need to show a current photo ID (i.e., driver’s license, passport, etc.) when your card is issued.

Find your department on the attached calendar to plan your visit to the TSC.  If you do not see your department listed, or if you cannot visit at your scheduled time, visit the TSC at your convenience to be issued a new card.  We encourage you to come early in the month, as the TSC can frequently become busy.

Additionally, during your visit, we need to verify your phone number and office location for our 911 system in the event of an emergency.  When you call 911 from a Cisco VoIP Phone, location details are sent to the Lackawanna County dispatch center to aid first responders.  Please complete the attached document and bring it with you to the TSC.  Be sure the phone number you provide is your direct number and not a main department number.  If you are uncertain of your direct number, please email phonehelp@scranton.edu requesting this information.

It is essential that everyone visits the TSC for a new RoyalCard by April 30, 2014.  Existing RoyalCards currently in use by Faculty and Staff will expire on April 30, 2014 and will no longer work on or off campus (including COLTS Bus) after this date.

Sincerely,
Network Infrastructure
