Safety and Security on Campus
While every effort is made by the College to ensure the safety and security of all students, the campus is open, with a public county road running through the center of it. For this reason, it is particularly important that all students participate in behavior that protects the safety and security of all campus community members.
Exterior doors for all residence halls are to remain closed and locked 24 hours a day. Students should keep interior entrance and bedroom doors locked at all times, particularly when not in the room and when sleeping. Students must use assigned keys to enter residence halls and must not enter the building through any other means other than the main entrance doors. Entrance of residence halls through windows or other avenues is not permitted. Doors are not to be propped open at any time and means of egress and accessible entrances to buildings must not be blocked. The College reserves the right to apply a $100 fine per instance of door propping. Residents should not provide access to secure campus spaces (including, but not limited to residence halls) to any unknown persons.
Security should be contacted immediately if someone persists in trying to gain access to an area without the appropriate key or appears suspicious or engaged in suspicious behavior. Forcing doors open will result in a $100 fine plus the cost of repair. Tampering with, removing, or damaging window screens may result in a fine, plus cost of repair. Persistent offenders may lose housing privileges. The College is not responsible for lost, stolen or damaged items. Each student is encouraged to obtain some form of insurance to cover personal property from theft, loss, or damages.
