Opening/Closing Note

Facilities—via our custodians—manage the building’s opening M-F, and are responsible for closing and setting the alarm any day we are open. Like any other team or department, Facilities and the custodians have last-minute staffing emergencies. Therefore, sub or fill-in custodians sometimes have to cover multiple buildings and may not be onsite at opening/closing.

OPENING: If you arrive before 8:00 a.m. M-F, please double check that a custodian has opened the building and use the main entrance if the building seems empty. You may need to turn off the alarm!

CLOSING: If there is no custodian on site at closing, do your best to ensure the building is empty and then leave. The building automatically locks. A custodian is responsible for closing and making sure the building is secure.
