New card causes returning students headaches

    Beginning August 3, 2009, all returning students will need to get new student ID cards. A change in banking relationships and an effort to simplify paying for parking at the Bradley Center’s parking structure has led to this decision.

    There will be no additional cost for this. However, MATC would appreciate the return of all current IDs.

    The new cards will be known as Stormer Cards in an effort to recognize the efforts of our athletic teams.

    MATC’s new on-campus banking partner will be US Bank, as TCF Bank will no longer be providing services at the school.

    Furthermore, the new cards will be used to pay for parking at the Downtown Milwaukee Campus, so there will no longer be a need to purchase parking stamps for the Bradley Center.

    Also, in the near future, hopefully by spring 2010, the U-Pass stickers will be affixed directly to the new cards, eliminating the need to carry the U-Pass with you.

    All incoming students will be issued the Stormer Cards upon registration, but all returning students must get the new Stormer Card before the start of the fall semester.

    Beginning August 3, all returning students can go to the Stormer Card office at any campus and get their new card.

    Offices are: Downtown: Room S301; Oak Creek Campus: Room A106; West Allis Campus: Room 133; and Mequon Campus: Room A118. Remember to bring your old ID.
