Health and Safety Inspections

Health & Safety inspections may be conducted two or more times each semester in the residence halls and apartments. Additional inspections may be conducted at the discretion of the RD.

The purpose of a Health & Safety Inspection is to discover and eliminate health and fire hazards in order to ensure the well-being of the residents. However, the staff may also take note of, and follow up on, violations of the Community Standards and University Policies. It is also an opportunity to communicate any room or building concerns directly to the RD and RA. When possible, Residents are encouraged to be present during the inspection. Residence Life staff may conduct inspections with or without the presence of a resident at the scheduled inspection time.

Health & Safety Inspections are generally preceded by at least a twenty-four-hour notice. However, such notice is not required. Any health and safety violations found during an inspection will result in either a written warning or a fine. Appeals of Health & Safety Inspection findings are handled through the RD of each building.
