The goal of the Bike Patrol is to work in cooperation with other components of the Security Department to ensure the effectiveness of the department. All students must be in the residence halls or University apartments at the curfew hour set by the administration and Board of Trustees. Any student needing to be out later than the set curfew must receive late permission from the appropriate personnel. Off-campus students are not permitted on campus after curfew unless they have permission from a school official. All areas of campus are now well lit.
Every residence hall has a live-in manager and several resident assistants.
The men's residence hall have a monitor on duty during the evening hours. Members of the opposite sex are not allowed in any of the living areas of the residence halls or apartments at any time. Men are allowed in women's residence hall lobbies from noon until curfew. Regardless of gender, all visitors, repair persons, vendors, etc. must sign in at the front desk with the desk monitor or the resident manager before entering the living areas and must sign out at the front desk when leaving the living areas. Students working off campus may also request escorts back to campus after dark if they make special arrangements.
