Background

Under the terms of the U of I SSN policy, by Fall, 2002, any point-of-service operation asking for an SSN must display an approved disclosure statement as mandated by federal law. By the year 2005, the University ID Number (UIN) will replace the Social Security Number (SSN) as the primary identifier in university-wide and departmental computer systems. 

Presenters

  • Ahmed Kassem, Vice Provost, CIO, and Director of the Academic Computing and Communications Center.
    Ahmed is the UIC campus administrator for the SSN policy implementation.

  • Mike Corn, Associate Director, University Office for Planning & Budgeting. 
    Mike chaired the SSN policy committee. He is the university administrator for the SSN policy implementation.

  • A representative of the University Counsel's Office. 

Topics covered

  • Laws & regulations governing use of SSN
  • University SSN policy & implementation plan
  • How UI Integrate will use SSN and UIN
  • How to decide if your process or application requires modification
