There's Safety in
Numbers
Introducing the New
TUid!
| |
|
In order to protect the privacy of your Social Security
number (SSN), Temple is assigning you a unique
Temple University identification number.
Your newTUid will become Temple's
primary way of identifying you. With this new ID in place, your Social
Security number will no longer be required for routine administrative
functions except those required by law, including tax purposes. The
new TUid will be printed on new Temple ID cards that will be distrbuted to
all students, faculty and staff.
Please visit this site frequently and follow our progress
towards our goal of maintaining a unique, non Social Security Number
identifier for all Temple related individuals.

PROJECT UPDATE – July 3, 2005
TUid and New OWLcard now Active!
OWLnet is now available for Summer 2 registration!
|
At 3:00 P.M. on Saturday afternoon, July 2, 2005, the Temple University Identification Number (TUid)
and new OWLcard became active. The TUid is a unique nine-digit number that Temple will use as the
primary way to identify you. Now, you will no longer be required to provide your Social Security
number for routine administrative processes except for those required by law, such as financial aid,
benefits, and tax related functions. |
Effective immediately, you must use your OWLcard to gain entrance to parking lots, make purchases with
Diamond Dollars, borrow library books, and gain entrance to secured doors protected with a card swipe.
Your old Temple ID is no longer valid and you should destroy it as soon as possible. Faculty and staff
members should have obtained their OWLcards from their individual departments. Students can pick up
their cards from the locations listed on the
Student OWLcard Distribution Web page.

Get Ready for Your New OWLcard!
As part of the Social Security number to TUid implementation
process, each Temple student, faculty, and staff member will
receive a new Temple ID card called the OWLcard. Temple's
new OWLcards will be distributed starting on June 15.
Faculty and staff will receive their new cards in June from
their individual departments. Students will be able to pick
up their cards from the locations listed on the
Student OWLcard Distribution Web page.
|
| |
Be sure to mark your calendars for
July 5, since this is the day that all new OWLcards
are scheduled for activation. On
July 5, current Temple ID cards will no longer work
for access privileges and Diamond Dollars. That means
you must begin using your new OWLcard. It a good idea,
however, to carry both your old ID card and new OWLcard
on July 5th in the unlikely event that the
conversion needs to be postponed.

For more detailed information on
the OWLcard, please see the
FAQs
on this site.

The first process in
preparation for our July migration from using the SSN to the
TUid as the primary identifier in our computer systems
occurred on March 20 when Computer Services ran a series of
processes that combined ISIS employee and student records so
that there is only one record per person.
|
| |
This resulted in a change for
those people who add students to ISIS via the G1 screen
- but only for students who are or have been employees
(between 1983 and today) of the University. For such
students, when the SNG1 transaction is entered with the
person's SSN as the key, the employee's name and
possibly some other fields on the G1 screen will be
returned. Normal procedures should be followed to finish
adding the student record to ISIS.
