      The
      campus
      card
      machine
      should
      now
     
     
      be
      up
      and
      running
      after
      a
      string
      of
      bad
     
     
      luck
      in
      the
      last
      few
      months.
     
     
      The
      staff
      at
      the
      ID
      Centre
      in
      the
      Young
     
     
      Sports
      Centre
      were
      taking
      photos
      at
     
    

    
     
      _the
      first
      of
      the
      year,
      but
      were
      unable
     
    

    
     
      to
      print
      the
      cards
      as
      they
      had
      not
      come
     
     
      in
      yet.
     
    

    
     
      There
      was
      a
      backlog
      of
      about
     
     
      1,000
      photos
      ready
      to
      be
      printed
      by
     
     
      the
      time
      the
      cards
      arrived.
      When
      the
     
     
      staff
      tried
      to
      print
      all
      the
      backlogged
     
     
      cards,
      the
      printer
      broke,
      probably
      due
     
     
      to
      the
      over-excessive
      use
      in
      a
      short
     
     
      period
      of
      time.
     
    

    
     
      The
      staff
      then
      tried
      to
      use
      the
     
     
      back-up
      machine,
      which
      broke
      shortly
     
     
      after.
     
    

    
     
      “Technology
      is
      wonderful
      when
     
    

    
     
      it’s
      working,”
      said
      Janice
      Robertson,
     
     
      Program
      and
      Facilities
      Director.
     
     
      This
      has
      been
      causing
      some
      problems
     
     
      for
      some
      first
      year
      students
      who
      are
     
     
      not
      aware
      how
      necessary
      the
      card
      is.
     
     
      If
      first
      year
      students
      don’t
      live
      in
     
     
      residence,
      they
      often
      don’t
      get
      the
     
     
      information
      they
      need.
     
    

    
     
      “Well
      I
      knew
      I
      needed
      one,
      I
      just
     
     
      didn’t
      know
      how
      important
      it
      was,
      that
     
     
      you
      would
      need
      it
      for
      everything.
      Had
     
    
   
   
    
     
      I
      known,
      I
      would
      have
      gotten
      it
      over
     
     
      the
      summer
      for
      sure,’
      said
      Rebecca
     
     
      Walsh,
      a
      first
      year
      arts
      student.
     
    

    
     
      She
      wasn’t
      aware
      she
      needed
      the
     
     
      campus
      card
      until
      she
      went
      to
      the
     
     
      library
      and
      was
      not
      allowed
      to
      take
     
     
      material
      out
      on
      reserve
      or
      borrow
     
     
      books.
     
    

    
     
      So
      she
      went
      down
      to
      the
      photo
     
     
      centre
      to
      get
      her
      photo
      taken
      for
      the
     
     
      catd,
      where
      she
      learned
      it
      was
      broken
     
     
      and
      wouldn’t
      be
      fixed
      for
      a
      few
      more
     
     
      weeks.
     
    

    
     
      Walsh
      was
      told
      the
      library
      was
     
     
      aware
      the
      printer
      was
      broken
      and
      if
     
     
      she
      had
      her
      license
      and
      student
      number
     
     
      handy,
      they
      would
      let
      her
      borrow
     
     
      material.
     
    

    
     
      “So
      then
      I
      walked
      in
      the
      rain
      to
     
     
      the
      library.
      I
      picked
      out
      my
      books
      out
     
     
      and
      went
      to
      take
      them
      out.
      The
      lady
     
     
      at
      the
      library
      desk
      said
      they
      weren’t
     
     
      doing
      that
      anymore.”
     
    

    
     
      Walsh
      was
      then
      passed
      on
      to
     
     
      another
      library
      staff
      member
      who
     
     
      eventually
      let
      her
      take
      out
      books.
     
    

    
     
      Another
      problem
      Walsh
      ran
      into
     
     
      was
      buying
      her
      books.
      She
      had
      to
     
     
      charge
      her
      books
      to
      her
      credit
      card
     
     
      because
      she
      didn’t
      have
      a
      campus
      card.
