All items found on campus that are lost should be turned in to any Public Safety officer or the Public Safety Office. Found or recovered items will be recorded and stored in the Public Safety office “Lost & Found”. Persons who have lost property should report it to the Public Safety office.

Public Safety does not permit the random rummaging through the Lost and Found area for lost items. If an item is reported lost and it is located by the Public Safety, you will be contacted by telephone or email and arrangements will be made to return the property. Found property will be stored until the end of the semester.

Every effort is made to restore lost items to their rightful owners, however, it is the owner’s responsibility to report and/or claim lost articles.
