Q. I lost my dorm key. What do I do?

The Student Handbook says the following about keys.

Each resident is provided keys to access his/her room upon checking in.

• A lost key should be reported to the RA or Residence Life Office immediately.
• A replacement charge will be assessed for each lost key.
• Room door locks are provided and serviced by HCU. Replacement of a lock, or tampering with it, by a resident or others is prohibited. If a lock fails or is defective, it should be reported to the RA for servicing by facilities operations personnel.
• Personal duplication of keys is prohibited. Room keys are only made or cut by HCU personnel. If a duplicate key is found, the student may be fined for the replacement of the keys and lock and be subject to further disciplinary action.
• It is strongly recommended that, for safety and security sake, rooms are kept locked.
