Each institution of higher learning is required to establish a Missing Student Protocol for students who reside in on-campus housing. This protocol goes into effect once campus officials determine the student to be missing from campus for more than 24 hours. In consultation with the Dean of Students, the Director of Residence Life or the Assistant Director of Housing and Residence Life then institutes the emergency contact procedure in accordance with the student’s designation on the Residence Hall Personnel & Emergency Card unless the student is under 18 years of age, in which case the custodial/parent or guardian must be notified.
