The PC campus and facilities are available for use by all students. Non-students may also have access to the campus by special arrangement. Campus resident halls are not open to the general public. They are for the use of residents and their guests. Proper security is utilized to ensure a safe environment for campus residents.
Trained supervisors are in charge of all resident halls to monitor safety and security.
Supervisors are required to report all crimes and emergencies to the Campus Police or to the Director of Student Activities. All students living on campus are given in The Resident Life Handbook, and they are acquainted with safety procedures and college policies. Section 51.209 of the Texas Education Code authorizes the college administration or its designated representatives to refuse admission, or the right to remain on campus, to any person who has no legitimate business with the college community. The police may request proper identification of individuals they encounter on college property, especially those persons encountered during the late night hours, under suspicious circumstances or in response to reports from college community members. At the beginning of each year, meetings are held with student services personnel and all students living in college housing.
