OPERATION
I. D.
What
is Operation ID? Operation
ID is a state-wide program designed to discourage burglary and theft of
valuables. It also provides a way for you to easily identify stolen
property. Most burglars steal valuables for resale. So, if you mark all
items with permanent identification numbers, the burglar may be unable to
sell them. If a criminal knows all your valuables are marked, he will look
for easier and more profitable victims.
How
do you join Operation ID? You
may borrow an engraving tool from the WSC College Police Office by allowing
them to keep your Student Identification Card until you return the engraver.
You can also request an officer to accompany you to do the engraving with
you. An appointment might be necessary when you wish to have an officer
assist you with this. The engraver is used to etch your Driver's License
Number and State Abbreviation onto your valuables. List
any items you engrave on to the form provided by College Police. You may wish
to make an additional copy of your Personal Property Record to keep on file
at your permanent address. It
is also a good idea to place inconspicuous identifying marks on clothing,
furs, etc... Jewelry, silverware and other items that may be damaged by
engraving should be photographed and recorded. What
should I mark?
Appliances,
Bikes, Cameras, Clocks, Stereos, Computers, VCRs, Keyboards, Monitors, TVs,
Radios, etc......
