It generally depends on what that number is needed for. If it's faculty convenience you can probably provide a separate way to view without further concern. Student ID numbers generally have an odd way into creeping into other systems/processes without enough thought where exposure is a major concern (card access/stored value sytems/parking/password resets).

I'm feeling that it isn't but I'm press to put a statement behind it that will put people at ease.
