The University will obviously try to prevent theft and losses on campus. However, it will not be responsible in the event of losses or theft of property. As with most colleges, particularly those based in cities, DCU has its share of security problems. The work of the University's Security staff would be very much assisted if all University members, students and staff, became more security-conscious.
Vigilance is particularly necessary with regard to bicycles.
All bicycles should be securely locked to the bicycle racks. Unfortunately, however, even this does not ensure that bicycles will not be stolen, as thieves have occasionally cut through chains in the past. These are available in the Mini-Market at a cost of about 26 pounds. Students can also help to minimise the problem of bicycle theft by being observant when in the car-park area. Be careful with money.
