Biometric turnstiles are causing chaos at Kazakhstan's Al-Farabi Kazakh National University, students say, with long queues at the entrance making them late for classes.
A student account on Threads described the crush after the new pass system arrived. The university replied that the temporary crowding came not from biometrics, which it called a safety measure, but from planned repairs at a second entrance, and promised capacity will return once the work ends.
Why it matters: campus tech rollouts live or die on the first week, and students experience a repair closure and a new gate as the same locked door.
