Building Access
Building access is controled by the University Police Department and granted on a must-need basis. All keys and access cards are state property and must be treated as such.Key Control and Warrior Access Card (WAC) Regulations
Building Access and Key Control Services is a part of the Department of Public Safety at Texas A&M University-Central Texas (TAMUCT). All key holders must protect keys because they are state property. Additionally, they must safeguard the TAMUCT key system with the same care they give other valuable state assets. Stringent key control accomplishes this. Careful consideration should be given to every key requested. Our goal is to establish a secure campus environment and ensure accountability for access to any building, room, or facility. In order to better serve you, we invite you to come by and offer suggestions or comments on building access at TAMUCT.

Emergency Access
Generally speaking, access into locked areas on campus must be authorized by the person in control of the area in question. University Police will not allow persons access without the permission of the person in charge of the area.
In case of emergencies (e.g. urgent maintenance, fire, etc.), the University Police Department and Facilities Management may need to enter a secured campus facility. Once the emergency is addressed, every reasonable effort will be made to contact the individual responsible for the area entered so as to advise him/her of the need to access their facility.
University Police will email each department head or his/her designee once a year to request updated information relative to emergency contact information should University Police need to contact someone in a specific department. Department heads should provide the University Police Department with emergency notification information and keep it current so staff can make contact during emergencies. Notification will be made to the department head or other person whose name is on file as an emergency contact for the department when emergency access to an area is required.
