As a UMB campus-wide safety initiative, two new One Card readers have been installed in the UMSON building in Baltimore in the first floor lobby next to the security officer’s desk. This allows UMSON and UMB to have a record of everyone who has entered the building should that information be needed in an emergency.
For this new campus system to be effective, all staff, faculty, and students are required to swipe their One Card at a reader every time you enter through the UMSON building front doors on Lombard Street. You do not need to swipe your One Card when exiting the building.
Faculty and Staff
Please also swipe your One Card when accessing the UMSON building from any other entrance (e.g., SMC Campus Center, Penn Street), even if you are following a colleague who has already swiped to unlock the door. You do not need to swipe again at the guard’s desk if you have already swiped at another entrance.
Students
Please be sure to swipe your UMB One Card using one of the new card readers at the guard’s desk when you enter the building through the main Lombard Street entrance. Please also swipe your One Card when accessing the UMSON Building from the SMC Campus Center connector door, which you are able to access 7:30 a.m. - 9 p.m., even if you are following someone else who has already swiped and unlocked the door. You do not need to swipe again at the guard’s desk if you have already swiped at the SMC Campus Center connector door.
