Limited walk-in service available at ID office Aug. 14-18
The UNMC Photo ID office will have limited walk-in service available for employees, staff and students the week of Aug. 14-18. The office, located in the Student Life Center, will be servicing all of the campus colleges with new student enrollment and badging. If a person knows they will need a new ID badge because of department, credential or name changes, it is suggested that they come in either prior to this week or after. Emergency service will continue to be provided in the case of lost or stolen cards; however, expect long wait times.
