About Safety & Security

Hall Security Procedures in place at each residence hall seek to foster a safe and secure environment through a combination of hall staffing, role modeling, security checks, and policy enforcement including key policies and guest/escort policies.

• Community Assistants are on duty every evening as a resource and can assist in emergency or crisis situations. These staff members perform community walks in and around each building to check exits, emergency lights, common areas, and hallways.
• Community Directors and Assistant Community Directors serve as resources for Community Assistants on duty.
• Each complex front desk is staffed 24 hours a day, seven days a week with staff members who sign-in guests, respond to questions, and notify duty staff in the event of an emergency.
• Each hall requires residents to meet their visitors at the front desk area and escort them throughout the building at all times. Courtesy phones are available for guests to make on-campus calls. Residents are responsible for the conduct of their guest(s).
• A valid Sun Card is required for residents to enter the perimeter access points of their assigned residence hall.
• Do not allow other individuals, who you do not know, follow you into the building (no tailgating).
