Safety/Maintenance Inspections

A safety or maintenance inspection of all units will be conducted every term and over break or vacation. Items found in violation of campus policy will be removed from the campus housing unit during safety inspections. Residents will receive a notice from the Resident Director regarding the violation and will be subject to formal discipline sanctions. Notices of these inspections will be sent out via e-mail. Staff members doing the inspections will knock before entering a residence and announce their intention to enter if no one responds before entering. Two staff members will enter a room together. During these scheduled inspections, staff are authorized to confiscate any prohibited appliances or equipment that pose a danger to safety as they deem appropriate. If violations are found during inspections, staff will follow up in writing concerning the violations and include deadlines for the changes to be completed.
