A finger's touch allows entry to UA Rec Center [Arizona]

Arizona Daily Star
There was always something inconvenient about the University of Arizona's Student Recreation Center, but you couldn't put your finger on it.

Starting this week, Rec Center members no longer will need to use their ID cards - called CAT Cards - before exercising.

Instead, they'll scan a finger.
Here's another good example of a balanced article that describes the benefits of a biometric identity management system. I believe it is also the first time the finger vein biometric modality has appeared in a linked article.
