If you lose your PID or four-digit PAN you need to do one of the following:

• Call the Registrar's Office, (517) 355-3300, and request your PAN over the phone. You will be asked to verify your identity.
• Go to the Registrar's Office with picture ID.
• Fax a signed request accompanied by a copy of your MSU ID to (517) 432-3347.
• Mail a request to Registrar's Office, 150 Administration Building, East Lansing, MI 48824.

There are two options there that are same-day.  Faxing is probably a 2-day process.

Okay, you're going to be subjected to a little rant.

Working on a password issue with University Advancement's help desk, I
inadvertently changed my NetID password.  Now I'm dead in the water —
can't order from the C Store, can't put in for vacation days, can't do
any of my work that involves a NetID.

That's not my beef; I'm the one who wasn't paying attention and forgot
the password.  It's the password *change* process that has me agitated. 
I need some PIN that I have never used and don't know so I have to ask
for it and WAIT FOR A PIECE OF PAPER to come to me in the mail before I
can request a password change.

I certainly understand the need for security around NetIDs, but this is
ridiculous.  I'm quite sure I'll still be waiting next week.  It's all
very 20th century.

Okay, rant over.  I'll order supplies from somewhere else, because I
can't wait to do that.
