Policies & Regulations
ACCESS TO CAMPUS FACILITIES
Most campus buildings and facilities are open to members of the campus community
and guests during normal business hours, Monday through Saturday. Some buildings
are open on Sundays for limited hours to facilitate special events.
After buildings have been secured, employees can obtain entry to an area if they
have been issued the appropriate key or access card authorized for that area. Faculty
and Staff may also request assistance in entering an area through the Campus Safety
and Security Department. Students may gain access to general areas after closing if
an appropriate Administrator, Faculty or Staff member has submitted written approval
to the Office of Campus Safety and Security. Identification will be required in the
latter case.
EMERGENCY NOTIFICATION OF STAFF AND STUDENTS
The Campus Safety and Security Department will, on occasion, interrupt a class session
to deliver a message to a student or staff member. The message content must be of a
medical emergency involving the person to be notified. At no time will the Campus
Safety and Security Department release any information regarding students or staff
members, nor will the office divulge whether or not the person is a student or staff
member. Requests for emergency notification should be made to the Campus Safety and
Security dispatcher at (734) 973-3411.
