Your Butler University ID allows you to access buildings, purchase meals, use a copy machine, and much more. Your Butler ID should be kept on your person at all times, and should never be given to anyone. If you lose your Butler ID, please contact the Butler University Police Department at 317-940-9396 immediately. You can receive a new Butler ID during normal business hours from Parking Services located in the Sunset Avenue Garage, or after hours from BUPD dispatch located at 525 West Hampton Drive. If you believe your Butler ID is not working properly please use the FAQ’s below.
