Policies and Procedures Access to Campus

Garden City Campus
All parking lots at the Garden City Campus are protected by security patrols. Vehicular access to the campus is restricted from midnight to 6:00 AM when only one guarded entrance (exit) is open by Levermore Hall. Incoming vehicles during the midnight to 6:00 AM period are checked to ascertain their purpose and will be denied access if the occupants cannot establish a legitimate reason for entering the campus. Parking is by permit only.

Each residence hall is staffed by a full-time professional Residence Hall Director and trained graduate and undergraduate assistants who work with Public Safety and other University departments to provide and maintain facilities that are safe and secure. A Residence Hall staff member is on duty 24 hours a day. Access to residence halls is limited to residents and their guests. Entrances are locked 24 hours a day and interior areas are patrolled by Security Officers and Residential Life staff. Closed-circuit television cameras and intercoms monitor resident hall lobby areas.

All campus buildings ( with the exception of residence halls ) are accessible Monday through Friday from 6:00 AM to 10:30 PM, Saturdays and Sundays according to class schedules. Exceptions are made for special events. I.D. may be requested of anyone utilizing campus facilities.
