Visitor Information
Excerpts from WesternU’s “Visitors to Campus” Policy and Procedure:
Access
- Campus visitors must have an academic or otherwise legitimate purpose to visit campus. Legitimate purposes include but are not limited to scheduled meetings with WesternU administration, specific staff or faculty, or a specific department; attendance at a WesternU-sanctioned event or an “open house”; or a scheduled guest-speaking/lecturing commitment.
- WesternU Campus Security and/or campus administration may require a visitor to identify the academic or otherwise legitimate purpose associated with his/her visit and may request presentation of a valid form of identification. Failure to provide a legitimate purpose for visiting campus or to provide a valid form of identification will prohibit the visitor’s access to campus.
- Access for visitors is limited to regular campus business hours or to the hours of a specified WesternU-sanctioned event.
Visitor Conduct
All visitors must abide by WesternU policies, procedures, and rules, including rules governing employee and student conduct.
Student Guests
Guests must be signed in by the WesternU student who will be their host while they are visiting. The host must present his or her current WesternU ID badge when signing in their guest, and the guest must present an acceptable form of identification and legibly sign the guest log at the Campus Security/Visitors Center desk [University Services Center]. The host must accompany his or her guest at all times while in campus facilities.
Special Circumstances
Persons without a current WesternU ID badge or Guest Badge will not be admitted, with the exception of the following:
- Faculty and students from other affiliated academic institutions, through agreements such as IEALC and SCELC, wishing to use the Pumerantz Library/Pumerantz Learning Center (PLC) will be required to show a current photo ID from their school and sign in. If the faculty or student member’s school ID is not a photo ID, a supplemental acceptable form of identification, e.g., state issued driver license, must be shown along with the school ID.
