The part of the I-94 that the OP has in his/her passport is a "Depature
Record" and he/she will NEED to surrender it. Until he/she does, that person
is considered to be in the United States and it is stated on the back that
they must surrender it upon departure.
If they are no longer a student, it is advisable to turn in the I-20 as
well.

Why do they need a drivers license if they are not a resident of the state
that issued it?
