New at the Student Center:
Southern Illinois University (SIUC) is in the process of transitioning from using the Social Security Number (SSN) as the Student ID to a random ID number known as the DAWG Tag (that will begin with ‘85’). This change is critical in the continuing efforts to reduce the risk of identity theft of our students, faculty and staff. Beginning June 1, 2008, all current SIUC Identification Cards must be replaced with a new ID card that will have the ‘85’ DAWG tag number printed on the front. If you have an ID card that begins with ‘85’, you will not need to replace it. Students and staff who need a new card may stop by the ID Card Office at any time after June 1, 2008 to get their new ID cards. Read the Student Center Press Release about the DAWG Tag.
You can also visit the DAWG Tag Conversion web page to get more information about the implementation of this transition.
Scheduling requests are now being accepted for Summer semester, 2008.
The Student Center covers more than eight acres of floor space. However, it is more than just a building. The programs and services offered provide for the social and academic development of our students. In addition, the Student Center serves as a unifying force, bringing together the campus and the community. It is an organization and a program, which work together to form a foundation for university life. We have a wide range of offices, restaurants, stores and activity areas, and all their hours of operation can be found at this site.
The Student Center is a department in the Division of Student Affairs, which periodically publishes a newsletter.
The Student Center offers students, faculty, and staff a place to sit back and relax, gather a group to study or grab a bite to eat. With multiple dining locations, the University Bookstore, ATM and Western Union stations, check cashing services, the ID Card office, and Debit Dawg activations and deposits all under one roof, the Student Center can make the practical side of University life a breeze. Add a little fun by attending one of the many films, concerts, lectures, or other events, enjoying a game of bowling or billiards, or getting creative in the Craft Shop.
