OneCard is available for day and night
The November 11, 1998 State Hornet article titled "Night students left out in the dark" contained a significant error regarding the CSUS OneCard. Your reporter wrote that when the OneCard was first introduced, the period of time when students could get them for free was during the day, and night students had to pay the $5 fee for another identification card. That is not correct.The OneCard Center is open until 7 p.m. on Monday and Tuesday evenings and those hours were also available to night students during the special carding event held January and February 1998.
In addition, the OneCard Center was open two Saturdays, January 31 and February 7, from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. During that time, approximately 13,500 students received their new OneCard free.
As a further effort to reach every student, the OneCard Center continued to issue free OneCards through the end of February 1998. Thus, night students had two Saturdays (9 a.m. to 5 p.m.) and eight evenings until 7 p.m. to obtain their OneCard at no charge.
The OneCard staff (David, Jeanie, Jennifer and Tuoi) work hard to provide good customer service to all students, day and night. As the OneCard program continues to grow, we look forward to providing even more services and office hours to the campus community.
