Common use of ACCESS TO ROOMS Clause in Contracts

ACCESS TO ROOMS. The College reserves the right, at the discretion of the Vice President of Student Affairs and/or their designee, to enter a room when there is probable cause to believe that there may be a concern regarding policy violations or the health, safety, and/or welfare of the resident and/or any member of the student body. Failure to abide by these policies and regulations will result in disciplinary action as prescribed by the Springfield College Student Handbook. College personnel including, but not limited to, Residence Life staff, Facilities and Campus Services Department (FACS), and contracted personnel may enter the rooms for maintenance purposes and to inspect vacancies. When feasible, students will be notified in advance. The resident is not required to be present at the time of entry. The Residence Life staff may conduct Health and Safety room inspections at least twice per semester and are not required to provide notice, though they may choose to do so.
