Theft

Students should always lock the door when leaving their room, suite or apartment, keep their YHC ID Card and room key with them at all times, and promptly report any doors or windows that do not lock properly to an RLC or RA.

Tips to prevent theft:

• Always lock your bicycle
• Never leave unattended valuables in plain sight
• Do not leave jewelry or other valuables in the bathroom
• Do not leave clothing unattended in the laundry room
• Be careful where you leave your books in public areas
• Use of lockbox to store medication and other valuables

Personal belongings found in residential common rooms or laundry rooms should be turned in to the RLC or an RA or taken to the YHC Police Department. Immediately report all thefts to the Young Harris College Police Department and then contact the RLC of the building.

Students should obtain property insurance for protection against damaged or stolen property.
