Registration of your bicycle increases the chances of recovery if it is stolen. Often when bikes are recovered, the owners cannot be located or cannot legally reclaim their property because they do not know the serial number of the bike. Therefore, the following rules will apply:

All bicycles on campus must be registered with the Office of Campus Security at no charge. Each bicycle must display a decal issued by OCS that is affixed to the bicycle frame in a visible area. Bicycles are not to be left outside on campus during Christmas break or summer break.

Unattended bicycles are expected to be locked to a bicycle rack at all times. They are not to be left in public access areas, entrances or exits to buildings, or attached to any railings, landscaping or other areas not designated for bicycle use. Bicycles must follow the same laws as automobiles when on roadways.

Failure to register bicycle or violation of above rules will result in impoundment at the owner's expense.
