HSAS&F
HS Building Management prints photo IDs for faculty, staff, students, and visitors for Magnuson Health Sciences, the Foege Building, ARCF, Health Sciences Education Building, and South Campus Center.
- The Building Access Coordinator (BAC) submits an online request for a HS Photo ID.
- If a photograph is attached to the online request, the BAC will be notified when the badge is ready for pick-up in Room T283 (badges are not mailed).
- After the BAC submits the request, the individual should send a passport-style photo against a blank background to HS Building Management. Selfies are acceptable.

- Photo identification (ID) badges are a supplement to Husky Cards.
- A Husky Card or HS Access Badge is needed to enter secure areas or the building after hours.
- A department may make a policy that their personnel must wear photo IDs at all times.
