NOTE: A student housing sleeping room is defined as the actual room in which the occupants live and sleep.

Student housing can include typical residence halls, graduate student housing, married student housing or any housing that is under the control or affiliated with the school, such as private, third-party residence halls built under contract with the school. This does not include Greek housing.

NOTE: When the smoke alarm/detector is activated it must transmit a signal to a supervised location, initiating an immediate response by a staff member to investigate. This alarm does not necessarily activate the building fire alarm system.

NOTE: A malicious fire alarm would be defined as one where a building's fire alarm system is activated even though it is known that there is no emergency condition. For example, someone blows smoke into a smoke detector or a manual pull station is activated.

NOTE: An unwanted fire alarm would be defined as one where a building's fire alarm system is activated by non-emergency conditions, yet the fire alarm system responds appropriately to stimuli that it interprets as a fire condition. For example, a smoke alarm that is located too close to a shower and is activated by steam, or is adjacent to a cooking area.

NOTE: For purposes of this question, housing staff will include only personnel such as resident assistants and/or resident directors who live in student housing.

NOTE: This will not include fire safety training provided to specialties such as laboratory assistants. This must be actual training with contact time and not include simply handing out brochures, fire safety articles in the student newspaper, etc. An example of contact hours would include fire extinguisher training that is provided to 30 students in one hour which would equal 30 contact hours.

NOTE: A fire must result in damage to the structure or contents.

NOTE: Dollar loss is direct property damage to the structure and contents and does not include costs such as alternative housing, staff response, etc

NOTE: This refers to regularly scheduled, in-room inspections conducted by an inspector or trained individual who is knowledgeable about fire safety issues. It does not refer to a security officer making regular rounds. ALL of the rooms must be inspected during these inspections and checked for hazards.
