Health and Safety Inspections
Inspections are completed at the beginning and end of both semesters, and typically during February with the local Fire Department representative. The purposes of inspections are as follows:
- to ensure that students are following College Regulations in regard to occupancy
- to check safety precautions (smoke detectors, fire extinguishers, illegal appliances)
- to confirm College inventory
- to report any damage or change in the condition of the room/apartment
- At the time of inspection, the College also has the right to confiscate and/or report billing for:
- any missing or misappropriated item from the Houses (such as house furniture)
- damaged College property
- illegal substances (drugs, paraphernalia, illegal weapons, etc.)
- illegal appliances in the room
Inspections can occur with or without your presence. If an inspection occurs without your presence, a note will be left explaining the purpose of entry, along with the date and time of entry and any noteworthy outcomes of the inspection.
