Student Identification Badge Policy

An identification badge is issued to all Bryan College of Health Sciences students. This badge serves as a student’s official identification and grants access to permitted areas and computer systems.

Student Responsibilities for Identification Badge:

  • Security and Maintenance:
    • Students are responsible for properly securing, storing, and maintaining their identification badges to ensure functionality and prevent loss or damage.
  • Appearance:
    • Identification badges must be worn visibly on the upper chest area during all learning experiences.
    • Identification badges must remain free of stickers, pins, or unauthorized alterations. 
    • Badges and badge holders must be clean and maintain a professional appearance.
  • Confidentiality:
    • Identification badges providing access to proxied doors and computer systems must be used only by the assigned student.
  • Lost Identification Badge:
    • A lost identification badge is a potential security risk to Bryan College of Health Sciences, the Bryan Health system, and Mary Lanning Hospital.
    • Lost badges must be reported immediately so they can be disabled and prevent unauthorized access to doors and computer systems.
