The below information applies to the Roane County campus only, it is the only campus that has 24/7 coverage. Access to the other campus facilities is only allowed during published open hours.

Security Guards/Police Officers maintain daily logs which contain the name(s) of anyone admitted to any building after it has been secured at the end of the normal working day, or when the campus is closed. Guards are required to request proper identification before granting access; therefore, it is required that all employees carry proper identification when requesting access to any campus facility. Acceptable documents include such items as a driver's license, RSCC/TBR Identification Card, passport, student ID card, or similar documents that establishes their identity. After regular working hours or when the campus is closed, guards may deny access to anyone that is unable to produce proper identification, or to anyone they believe has no legitimate reason to be on campus.

If an employee gains access by use of their requested key/badge, notification to police/security at ext. 4500 should be completed upon their arrival during campus closure.

Students will not be permitted access to laboratories or other rooms that contain equipment, where safety and security is of concern, unless the proper instructor or technician is present.
