Missing Person Policy for Students Living On-Campus

Emergency contact notification procedure for missing students

  1. When a student is reported by anyone to Campus Security that the student cannot be located and there is concern for the well-being of the student, this student is immediately treated as a “missing person.”
  2. Campus Security will forward Missing Person Report to law enforcement within 24 hours.
  3. Campus Security will notify a) the student’s designated contact person, or b) for an unemancipated student under the age of 18, the student’s parent or guardian.

Required notifications

At initial on-campus registration, the Enrollment Center will require students to fill out a Personal Information Form, on which students will be advised that the following applies to all on-campus students:

  • They have the option to identify a confidential contact person that MUM would contact no later than 24 hours after the student is reported missing and provide confidential contact information for that person.
  • For any student under the age of 18 who is not emancipated, the school is required to notify a parent or guardian no later than 24 hours after the student is reported missing.
  • MUM is required to notify law enforcement no later than 24 hours after the student becomes a “missing person.”
