Why not use the RFID tags to "swipe" in and out (e.g. just have a reader at the entrance), rather than tracking their exact location across the whole campus?


That is exactly what this is. It is not tracking exact location. They are talking about readers at entrances and exits.


Sadly reporters and all the privacy people forget to mention this. They make it seems like they are tracking their EXACT location.


Upvoted. Readers at the entrances sounds like a good compromise.
