Daytona Beach Campus Safety & Security

Missing Student Policy & Procedure

Students who reside in campus housing managed by the department of Housing & Residence Life are subject to certain missing student notification procedures.    Anyone suspecting that a student has been missing for the past twenty-four hours must immediately notify Campus Safety & Security.  An officer will respond to your report and begin an immediate investigation.  The Safety & Security Department’s response will include notification to the Daytona Beach Police Department if the investigation confirms the subject is missing.  If the missing student is under 18 years of age and not emancipated, the university will notify the custodial parent or guardian.

As a resident student, you may identify a contact person(s) who the institution will notify if you become missing.  The university will notify this person if we determine you are missing.  This contact person information should be communicated to the department of Housing & Residence Life as a part of your housing contract application process.  The information provided will be kept confidential by the department and will be accessible only to authorized campus officials and law enforcement involved in the missing person investigation.
