Keys

• Please be aware of the responsibilities that come with the privileges of having access to many of the rooms/offices on campus. Please be respectful of others privacy.

• Keys must be returned at the end of the day. If you leave at the end of the day with your grey-box keys, please call Safety and Security and return them immediately. Most likely, they will let you in to the office area to exchange keys.

Alarm Systems

• There are a handful of offices, that during the summer, have alarms set. Although you have a grey-box key to unlock the door, the alarm will sound.
• These offices include: Health Services, Dean of Students office, the Art 105 room, Registrar's Office, Media Services, "IT", Hillstrom Museum, Bookmark, Counseling Center, and the Post Office.

If you trip an alarm, please do not panic. Find a phone and call x8888 and let them know who you are and where you are at. They will most likely know where you calling from and know why you are calling.
