Access & Keys

The Risk and Emergency Management Department supports key and access requests for all facilities and departments within Student Life. We work with Facilities Operations and Development to implement key requests and maintain a comprehensive keying plan for Student Life facilities. We utilize electronic key cabinets, offline card readers, and a master keying schematic to safely assign and secure keys.
