Important Campus Access Reminders

submitted by publicsafety@augsburg.edu

Safety on campus is a shared responsibility. Preventing behaviors like “piggybacking” or “tailgating” (letting individuals without a fob follow others through fob-access doors) is an important way we maintain a safe environment for all Auggies. While it may feel uncomfortable, it’s important not to hold secure doors open for people you don’t know.

CAMPUS ACCESS REMINDERS:

– Use your own fob, every time.

– If someone you don’t know approaches a locked door at the same time as you, step back and allow them to fob in ahead of you. If they don’t have a fob, they should contact the Department of Public Safety or call the person they are trying to meet.

– If you use your fob to let someone you don’t know into a secure area, it is your responsibility to escort them to their destination and stay with them until they connect with the individual(s) they are on campus to meet.

– If someone you don’t know follows you into a residence hall, contact the Department of Public Safety at (612) 330-1717 immediately.
