Security and Access to Foege South
Foege is a secure building and all authorized personnel are issued access cards to the building. Please do not allow anyone to “piggy back” with you in the elevator or through secured entry doors.
Access for Employees:
Husky Card. If you are a regular employee, you may obtain a Husky Card for building access on your second day of work. Please email gsadmin [at] uw.edu with your Employee ID (EID) or Student ID (SID) under your picture on your card and one of our Building Access Coordinators (BACs) will add Foege accesses for you. Your building access will end when you are no longer an employee or a student.
Health Sciences ID/Access Card. If you are a temporary employee or wish to remain with GS as a collaborator after graduating or ending employment, we can request a Health Sciences ID Access Card that will give you access to Foege and Health Sciences. Contact gsadmin [at] uw.edu with a headshot photo, relationship with GS, and lab name, and we will request access for you. You’ll receive an email when it’s ready, or request that we pick it up and deliver it to your lab.
Access for on-going Temporary Employees, Contractors, and Collaborators

What if I lose access?
