Over two days of continuous observation, we have confirmed the specimen to be a standard-format (ISO ID-1) PVC student identification card issued by ArtCenter College of Design. Condition at acquisition was assessed at 7.8/10, with uniform edge wear consistent with daily carry. No structural damage observed. Baseline measurements were recorded as follows: corner radius 3.1mm, laminate thickness approximately 0.08mm, net weight 5.2g. Barcode scan verification confirmed full readability.
At approximately 14:30, a small card was discovered on a desk surface in Room 302 (print room), 3rd floor, Building 1111, ArtCenter College of Design South Campus. The specimen was unattended with no identifiable owner present in the vicinity.
Initial visual assessment indicates significant deterioration. The card surface is heavily soiled, with dried soil deposits covering approximately 40% of the front face, concentrated along the lower half and edges. Corners show rounding and fraying beyond standard wear. Overall condition is notably poor relative to typical cards of this type still in active use.
The specimen has been identified as an institutional student access card. The printed name indicates the holder is a female student: ██████████. No further personal information is legible beneath the soil layer at this time.
The card has been left in situ. Observation commenced.
Upon returning to the site on Day 2, the card was gone. The desk surface where it had rested was empty. No trace of the specimen remained.
Whether it was retrieved by its owner or removed by someone else is unknown. The observation period is hereby concluded. Owner: Kang, Rina.
