Welcome to the School of Art!
We have created this guidebook in order to assist Faculty, Faculty Associates and Teaching Assistants with a “go to”
resource for many of the questions that arise when preparing for, conducting and finalizing your work in the
classroom. Our School of Art staff remain ready to assist you with issues and concerns as they arise, but if you need
an immediate answer, especially during a time when the office is closed, we hope you will find your answer here. We
will be updating the guidebook every term, so if you see something important that is missing, please let us know.

ASURITE/Outlook Email Activation
You can activate your ASURITE ID and your email address at the following link:

ASU Sun Card
The Sun Card is the official photo ID of all Arizona State University students, faculty and staff. The ASU Sun Card is a
multifunctional identification/access card that can also serve as a payment card by debiting funds from an optional
prepaid account. Other affiliates of the university, such as Faculty Associates and visiting scholars may be issued a Sun
Card as official identification.
 Students, FAs and Visiting Faculty Sun Cards are $25: You may pay by cash, check, Visa, Mastercard, or have
the charge posted to your university account and a bill will be mailed. Students may receive a Sun Card during
orientation or at a Sun Card office.
 Full-time benefits-eligible faculty and staff Sun Cards are free (first time): The card serves as employee
identification and provides door access where needed. Replacement cards are $25. Employees may receive a
Sun Card at their scheduled session of benefits-eligible new employee orientation in the University Services
Building, room 1302 or at a Sun Card office.
To receive a Sun Card, you must do the following:
 Present a legal photo identification, including U.S. driver's license, passport, military identification or high
school ID card, to verify your identity when your Sun Card is created.
 Fill out a card with your name, 10-digit ASU ID number and classification (student, faculty/staff or other).
Afterward, we take your picture and produce your Sun Card on the spot.
The process takes 3-5 minutes, and you will walk away with your new Sun Card.

North, (CDN) Charlie’s coffee shop has happy hour from 3-5pm.
