Does my student need a Harvard ID card?

For the most part, yes - it is highly recommend that students obtain an Harvard ID card while working on campus. It will provide proof that they are working for the University, but also may be needed for security access to various buildings and offices on campus. If all onboarding paperwork is received in a timely fashion, the student will be able to receive their Harvard ID card during the first day orientation (as long as they bring in the proper identification). Otherwise, the ID can be picked up directly by the student and manager once onboarding paperwork is complete and processed. Additional information about acquiring a Harvard ID Card can be found on the Campus Service Center website.
