Missing Student Policy

In accordance with the Higher Education Act of 2009, each student living in residence has the option to register with the Student Life Office a confidential contact person to be notified in case the student is determined to be missing (*students complete this paperwork when picking up a room key); only authorized campus officials and law enforcement officers have access to this information.  All students should know that, even if they have not registered a contact person, local law enforcement will be notified if the student is missing; all students under 18 (and not emancipated) should know that their parent or guardian will be notified. 

The University may be notified of a missing student through a variety of channels and by any member of the University staff and student body. The person to whom the incident is reported should contact Campus Police immediately.
