If possible, residence hall rooms occupied by students and the personal possessions of student will not be searched without their presence. The College cannot prevent or prohibit the search of students' rooms or College premises by law enforcement officers acting in the performance of their duty. It is expected, however, that the ordinary requirements for lawful search will be followed. The inspection of students' rooms for maintenance requirements is not considered to be a search. In compliance with a Los Angeles ordinance, smoke detectors are present in individual rooms and common areas of each residence hall.
Smoke detectors are potential life saving devices.
To insure that the smoke detectors are appropriately used and serve their designed function, it is expected that students will not dismantle or otherwise alter them. Due to the high possibility of damage and injury as well as the present water situation in California, water fights are not permitted in the residence halls. Students who participate in water fights will be subject to disciplinary action.
