Building and Facilities Care Guidelines

Security & Facility Care Guidelines

[obtain codes from the Office of Community Life or Office of Academic Affairs]

Access to the Mudd Building, the Computer Lab, TV Lounge, D’Autremont & the PSR Chapel is provided as a PSR community benefit. In order to ensure that the PSR community enjoys that intended benefit, it is necessary for all users to participate in observing a few security and facility care guidelines.

  • All facility users must acquire the necessary codes from Community Life Office (student/PSR-affiliation I.D. must be presented at the time the code requested is made)
  • All users must sign an “Accountability Covenant” indicating agreements to NOT SHARE the codes with others.
  • Access to codes should NOT BE SHARED WITH ANYONE ELSE (this is redundant, but absolutely bears repeating).
  • Users are also asked not to admit person who have “left their codes at home” and/or cannot present adequate identification to show they are authorized users of the facilities.
  • Users are asked to ensure that the facility door has closed completely upon leaving the building.
  • PSR Chapel: The code numbers to the chapel door near the outside bathroom maybe used when the doors are looked before 8 am and after 5 pm, Monday to Friday. Space need to be reserved. Students who reserve the space the space have priority over those who do not.
  • Computer Lab Basic Rules: Since we don’t have a paid staff to guard the space, please help enforce the rules below by reminding those who are using the computer lab about the rules.
