Please be advised
that in response to national and local security concerns, the
Division of Public Safety would like to update the University's
Security Policy regarding the use of buildings after-hours
and the displaying of PennCards.
The
new policy would require all persons (students, staff, and
faculty) to
prominently display their PennCard identification.
between
the hours of 10 p.m. and 7 a.m. Monday through Friday and
from
10 p.m. on Friday night through 7 a.m. on Monday morning.
Previously the
display of PennCard identification was only mandated between
the hours of 10 p.m. and 7 a.m. on weekends as well as
weekdays. Persons observed by security/police in a campus building
that is not open for scheduled public activity between 10 p.m.
and 7 a.m. Monday through Friday and from 10 p.m. on
Friday night through 7 a.m. on Monday morning without a PennCard
will be asked to leave the building, and will not be able to
re-enter until they can produce valid PennCard identification.
The
Division of Public Safety seeks the input of all segments
of the Penn
community. Please direct your comments to: Maureen Rush via lklerr@publicsafety.upenn.edu.
