Right of Entry

Return to: Student Handbook  

The University reserves the right of residence hall deans, authorized representatives or an administrative officer of the University to enter and inspect a student’s room whenever deemed necessary. This includes, but is not limited to, the right to inspect the contents of any locked containers and inspection for illegal substances, firearms, alcohol, tobacco, fire and safety hazards, cleanliness and orderliness. The student, by accepting a room in one of the residence halls, acknowledges and authorizes this procedure. Materials and decorations such as calendars, pictures or posters not in harmony with the ethical and moral standards of the University may result in the student being asked to remove them from the campus or may ultimately be moved by University personnel.
