ANIMALS ON CAMPUS

The following policy applies to the presence of dogs on campus, excluding seeing eye dogs accompanying their masters:

1. Dogs are not permitted on campus unless under control on a leash of not more than six feet in length.
2. Dogs cannot be tethered unattended outside of buildings or elsewhere on campus.
3. Dogs are not allowed inside any campus building or facility except for approved research purposes.
4. Dogs found on campus in violation of these policies will be turned over to the appropriate authority (currently the Louise McNeely Animal Shelter) and impounded in accordance with their regulations. The impoundment fee will be collected from the owner of any dog which is claimed.
5. Students who consistently permit their dogs to be on campus contrary to these policies will be subject to University disciplinary proceedings.
