Summary:

Overview: Administrators and residence life staff regularly need to balance the competing interests of student privacy and maintaining a healthy and safe campus community.  In the particular context of searching students' rooms, finding the right balance requires not only a firm grounding in the institution's policies and procedures, but also a working knowledge of the essential legal principles governing when, how and by whom a student's room may be searched. 
 
Join us as we review the 4th amendment and other legal constraints that govern both public and private institutions; the central importance of institutional policy, practice and philosophy; and practical suggestions that you can utilize within your staff and campus community.
