The installation of biometric recognition scanners in the Class of 1953 Commons coincides with various changes to student meal plans this term.

“If you haven’t enrolled before we start the winter term, you’re going to be in a very long line,” Plodzik said. “And then you’re going to have to go into another line to enroll.”

Students have expressed mixed reactions to the new scanners.

"The Dartmouth" called it "news" so....

(There will be three lanes at ’53 Commons with biometric scanners and one lane with an employee who will swipe students in manually, according to Plodzik.)

YOU VILL COMPLY OR VEE VILL MAKE IT INCONVENIENT

So ID to see a doc.

ID for dining.

But not to vote.

[9YearLurker]

Oh, goodie again!

[T.B. Yoits]

So... Dartmouth has a problem with students selling meals to others?

Or is it that the student who enrolled isn't the student attending and one way to catch them is biometric scans at the cafeteria?

My first suspicion would be students from Communist China.

Yah a 5-month old article - but there are various systems being deployed. For our convenience, security and speed of access. I'm sure nothing could go wrong.

Again, it's not THE Mark of the Beast - but it's conditioning people - even if accidentally through advances in technology

(the below is simply to wake people up, hopefully get them to read a Bible - and if they're not Saved, then do so....)

MOST will not be interested until it's too late

the keep all the top secrets stuff only seen in mission impossible right in the kitchen.

Looks like some are doing enrollment(?) / dining privileges too

A new generation totally-accustomed to palm-scanning

Convenient, secure, fast, and .... controlling

I get it from an I/T perspective - I would be championing such - except that it has the potential to cut one off from the ability to BUY (and maybe eventually, SELL)

On Nov. 4, Dartmouth Dining began enrolling students in a palm biometric recognition scanner system at the Class of 1953 Commons. Starting this winter term (2025 January-May(?)), students will be able to use palm biometric technology to enter the Class of 1953 Commons instead of swiping in with a physical ID card. The biometric technology is created by IDEMIA, a technology company that specializes in biometrics and cryptography.

I love The bugs Bunny cartoon where he’s dressed as a palm reader ask would you like your palm read? The person says yes and puts out his hand and Bugs paints it with red paint.

Voting no everything else yes

[SaveFerris]

[Voting(?) NO!

everything else(?) YES!]

The DEMOCRATS have been rigging the system for
a loooooong time now - Globalists totally on board too

Small wonder the Democrats / Uniparty / Globalists
all LOVE each other so much - CONTROL the MASSES

[SaveFerris]

LOL 😆

was that actually in the show?

[TangoLimaSierra]

Naw.

[OpusatFR]

I would have starved in Uni if kind friends had not given me their dinner pass once in awhile when they were dining elsewhere.

(and yes, I worked part time while attending.)

[SaveFerris]

Oh...LOL

[SaveFerris]

Oh wow - I guess you’d have to drag them along NOW

and have them scan THEIR palms - I wonder if that will be allowed?

Scan-for-a-friend?

When I returned to college in the late 1980s there were University-Only Debit Cards that students had for the
vending machines - I would see some of them repeatedly
scanning - because the bills were going to Dad and Mom

I didn’t get one because I was afraid I’d use it too much

I usually went to Taco Bell after class, cooked at my apartment,
or once in awhile, I’d eat at the Student Union

Whole Foods uses this technology - you can scan in your palm print and “easily” hook it up to your bank account.

As my tech security IT SIL told me: You can change your credit cards if they’re breached, you can’t change your palm print.

He strongly advises against using this new “form of ID.”

That’s enough for me...

Not sure if you saw this one
