Chapter 21. Public Safety
Section 21.3. Key and Building Access Control

21.3.1. Obtaining Keys

Before a key is issued, all faculty and staff must present their Tech Express ID card and a department chair or director signed Key Request card. Graduate students must present their Tech Express ID card or paid tuition receipt to Public Safety.

To obtain a University key, do the following

1. Have department personnel complete a key request card including the name of the building and the room number the key is for; the key holder's name, Social Security number, department, and phone number.



2. Have the department chair/director sign the key request card and forward it to the Public Safety Department.



3. The Public Safety Department will review the request.


NOTE: If disapproved, the Public Safety Department returns the key request card to the department with a proper explanation. If approved, the Public Safety Department processes the key request and notifies the department when the individual is to come to the Public Safety Department to receive the key.


4. Once notified, go to Public Safety to pick up the key, present a valid Tech Express card, sign the key request card, and receive the key.
