Cougar Cards are provided for appropriate identification to use and access buildings and services. The card is non-transferrable and is valid as long as the holder continues her/his specific affiliation with the College. A Cougar Card is to be used only by the person to whom it is issued. Lost or stolen cards should be reported immediately to the FSA Office by calling 518-562-4372 or 518-562-4371. Anyone finding Cougar Cards should immediately send them to the Office located in the Moore Building in room 112M. The Cougar Card may be presented as collateral for official college business ONLY. College offices accepting Cougar Card as collateral must have a lockbox to secure cards and notify cardholder within twenty-four hours if Cougar Card has not been picked-up. After forty-eight hours the Cougar Card must be delivered to FSA. The Cougar Card must be secured at all times and never be left unattended or unsecured in a lockbox.
