Identification Cards

All students and employees are required to have a Lynx Card I.D. Members of the Rhodes community may be asked by Campus Safety Officers to identify themselves with their Lynx Cards. Lynx Cards are required by the Barret Library to check-out books and and by the mailroom in order to pick up mail and packages. They are also used to access meal plans in the Refectory and for admission to various College events.

Lynx Cards are made for faculty and staff at the time of hire. New and replacement cards are produced at Rhodes Express. Lost cards maybe replaced for a $10.00 fee.

The Lynx Card can also be used to make purchases in the Lynx Lair and the Rhodes Bookstore. Funds can be deposited into the Lynx$ account through the Rhodes website at https://www.rhodes.edu/student-life/services-support/rhodes-express/payment-services#Lynx$. Purchases made in the Lynx Lair or Bookstore are deducted from the Lynx$ account and the new balance is displayed to the cardholder at the point of sale. Further information regarding the use of Lynx$ is available at Rhodes Express.
