ID's

Why doesn't my ID work when scanned at the Recreation Center?
Reasons could include: Your ID is expired or you're not a member. Student fees need to be paid. You have a Household Membership but your child is now over 21 years old.  You are a faculty or staff member with no membership (faculty/staff can use the facility without membership by paying $5 per visit with valid ID;  identify your status at the entry). You're a part-time (less than 6 hrs) student (P/T students pay $3 per visit at the Recreation Center; identify yourself as part-time at the entry.  You have University Guest ID card.  You don't have recreation privileges.

You're a UM faculty or staff and going to class as a UM student at the University.  You may have dual status.  Faculty/ staff status has priority over student status, causing the ID to not scan correctly.  Identify yourself as dual status at the entry and talk to supervisor to gain access.

How many guests can I bring? You can only bring one guest per valid UM ID.  You must sign for them at the front entry.  You are liable for their actions and must stay with them thoughout your visit.  You could lose recreation priviledge if this rule is violated.
