Buff OneCard

So what’s the single most important possession you’ll have while enrolled at CU? The Buff OneCard would have to be the answer. Not only is it your campus ID card, but just one swipe and it will grant access to residence halls, printing, on-campus dining, banking services, laundry, the rec center, athletic events and yes, even the campus Starbucks. Just say “open sesame.”
