Campus Asked to Vote for New Cougar Card Design


The Cougar Card Office is bringing a new look to the official campus ID and wants the campus community to choose the design. Monday, Oct. 1 through 5 p.m. Friday, Oct. 5 faculty, staff and students will be able to vote for their favorite option.

As the campus identity management solutions provider, the Cougar Card Office has been developing a new smart ID card with advanced technologies for our campus environment. Revamping the look for the new smart Cougar Card is just the first step in this rollout, with many exciting changes to follow. 

Each person is allowed to cast one vote. To place a vote, faculty, staff and students should: 

  • Log in to AccessUH using a CougarNet ID and password
  • Click on the Get Involved icon
  • If prompted, log in again with the same CougarNet credentials
  • Within the blue banner at the top, click “Cougar Card Design Vote”
  • Select a design
  • Click next to cast a vote 

The Cougar Card Office will announce the winning design later in October, with the new look rolling out next summer.
