RacerCard
You will be issued an official student
identification card—your Racercard—when you arrive on campus. Your Racercard is required
to enter your assigned residential college, to cash checks, pick up financial aid checks, sell books back to the bookstore, make copies at Copy Express, check out library books, obtain meals at all eight food locations and pay fees at the cashier’s office.

Your Racercard is also required at numerous facilities and student activities such as voting, theatre productions, game room/fitness center, RSEC, Carr Health building and athletic events. A photo ID, such as the Racercard, is needed to obtain any information from the Registrar's Office. Completion of class scheduling and fee payment requirements each semester is necessary for appropriate ID activation.

If you happen to lose your ID card, report it to Winslow Dining Hall. A replacement fee of $12.50 must be paid prior to receiving a duplicate ID card. The Racercard office will accept cash or checks. If you need to
pay by credit card, you must first go to the cashier's office on the second floor of Sparks Hall and bring the receipt to the Racercard office.

Questions about the Racercard can be answered at the Racercard office, or by calling 762-3003.

RacerPay
RacerPay is a new service, which enables you to receive your MSU Billing Statements over the web, and to submit payments online, using an electronic interface with your bank. There is no additional cost associated with utilizing the Racer.Pay service to pay your student bill.

Housing
Murray State's eight residential colleges house over 3,000 students. All rooms on campus are designed for two students and are air-conditioned. Seven colleges—Clark, Franklin, Hart, Regents, Richmond, Springer and White—offer suite arrangement baths. Two colleges—Elizabeth and Hester—offer community bath arrangements. All rooms in all colleges have individual lavatories, and all public hallways are carpeted to help reduce the noise level. All residential colleges are within convenient walking distance of classes, the university center, recreation facilities and campus dining halls.

Health Services
Health Services is located at ground level in the north wing of Wells Hall. The clinic is open for student visits from 8 to 11:30 a.m. and from 1 to 4 p.m. on weekdays when classes are
in session. However, the clinic is closed after 11:30 a.m. each Wednesday for health education
presentations at other sites on campus.

Primary health care is offered on an outpatient basis. This includes health education; health promotion; health maintenance; health history and physical assessment; first aid, including bandages and crutches; routine clinical laboratory procedures such as throat and urine cultures; tests for anemia, pregnancy and sexually transmitted diseases; and treatment for illnesses.

Students are seen on a drop-in basis and are screened by professional nurses. They may be treated or referred to the physician, depending
on the nature of the visit. When a specialist’s care is indicated, personnel will assist with the
referral. The local hospital provides physician services on a 24-hour basis for emergencies.

All enrolled students are eligible for free services at the clinic. During the summer, students must be enrolled in the current session to be eligible for services. All services with other health care providers or agencies are at the student’s own expense.

Hospital Insurance—If you do not have a hospital insurance plan, you might consider purchasing a basic policy which the university offers
through a private agency. The insurance company mails brochures to all students prior to the fall
semester. Brochures are also available at the time of registration or at Health Services throughout the
year.

Public Safety/University Police Call #2222 on campus
The Public Safety department at Murray State University is responsible for the protection and safety of Murray State students, faculty, staff and property. The Public Safety department is located on the corner of 16th and Olive streets. Police officers are on duty 24 hours a day and have full police powers. They aid in the protection of students, faculty and staff by enforcing city and state laws in the university community.

Public Safety also offers nighttime escort service through the Racer Patrol (call 2222 on campus). This popular service ensures peace of mind to students required to walk to and from parking lots and buildings after dark.

Lost and Found
If you find an item on campus, turn it in at the Public Safety building which maintains the official lost-and-found
department for the university. If you lose something on campus, go to the Public Safety building at once and file a missing property form.

Procedures for reporting/replacing specific items

Parking
If you wish to bring a car to the campus, you must register your vehicle and purchase a parking permit. There are three methods of
payment available, and you may decide which method is best for you. You may choose to purchase the permit either prior to or during
registration via RacerTouch, you may purchase the permit at the cashier’s office located on the second floor of Sparks Hall or you may choose to have the fee for the permit placed on
your account at the department of Public Safety.

If you choose to purchase the permit via RacerTouch, the parking fee will be placed on your account and a statement will be mailed to
you. If you choose to purchase the permit at the cashier’s office, you will be given a receipt that must be taken to the department of Public Safety and redeemed for a parking permit. If you choose to have the fee for the permit placed on your account at the department of Public Safety located on 16th Street, a statement will be mailed to you. You may go to the cashier’s office to pay your bill or return payment by mail. PLEASE NOTE. A vehicle is not considered registered until the permit is properly displayed in the vehicle.

Fines for parking violations are $10, $25, and $40, payable in the cashier’s office. Parking appeals or questions should be registered with the Public Safety office or the student government office. Appeals will be accepted for only five school days
from the issue date of the ticket. Appeal board decisions are final. You can view the results of your appeal at the Student Government Association website.

Campus parking policies are published in the pamphlet Parking and Traffic Regulations and on the web.

Food Services
The university is responsible for seven food service facilities. Winslow Dining Hall is located in the heart of the residential college complex. Although it is used primarily by
residential college students who buy meal tickets, it is open on a cash basis to all students. One “c-store” provides a variety of fast and convenience food items: Fast Track (located in the north end of Winslow Dining Hall).

The Curris Center is home to the Thoroughbred Room, Domino's, Subway, the Sugar Cube, Tyson-Sunset Strips Chicken Products.
The T’Room offers a hot line, salad bar and grill items Monday-Friday; the Sugar Cube offers homemade cookies, fudge, pastries, and
other treats for your sweet tooth.

Board plans, declining balance or cash are welcome at all our facilities (except only declining balance and cash can be used at the Sugar Cube, Sunset Strips, Domino’s and Subway).
