William Black Medical Research Building, 650 W. 168 St., New York, NY 10032 Lobby

Get your electronics and bikes tattooed and registered with the NYPD and Columbia University Public Safety’s Operation ID Program Wednesday, February 12,  from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. in the Black Building Lobby.  

This free and effective program is a national crime prevention project designed to protect your valuables from theft, which has dramatically reduced property crime. A unique ID number is engraved and registered with the NYPD and CU Public Safety. From New York to California, Operation ID makes selling stolen property on the street or to any pawn shop difficult. Persons in the unauthorized possession of registered property are subject to arrest. Operation ID is also a great Lost and Found program. 

Also available during the event:

  • Public safety services
  • Personal safety tips
  • Discounted bike U-locks and locker padlocks
