It is our operating procedure to respect the privacy of students and, therefore, rooms generally will not be entered or searched. However, for the purpose of safety codes, fire regulations, and general cleanliness, the University reserve the right to maintain, repair and routinely inspect individual rooms any time during the school year. Scheduled room checks are done at the end of each semester and before spring break. In circumstances where there is reason to believe that state or federal laws or Bethel policies have been violated, the university reserves the right to inspect, or authorize inspection of, rooms and apartments.
