The Office of the Provost, in collaboration with the Office of Campus Planning, is piloting a new program of sharing meeting space across campus. IS&T has partnered with Zoom to equip these spaces with Zoom Rooms solutions offering a consistent experience across diverse locations.
Use of these spaces is available to MIT faculty, students, and staff through reservations made via the Spaces feature within the MIT Atlas mobile application.
Please note: IS&T periodically sends an email entitled "Action Required to Maintain MBTA Benefits on MIT ID Card" to users who have MIT ID cards at or approaching an eight-year limit. If you received this email and use your MIT ID card to access MBTA benefits, such as the subway or local bus, visit one of the 10 card kiosks on campus to print a new card to continue using your MBTA benefits.
An MIT ID is a digital or physical credential enabling community members to authenticate themselves to card readers on and off campus.
