Bicycles
Registration:
All bicycles operated on campus must be registered with the Division of Public Safety. This registration is free of charge and is permanent for as long as the permit is affixed to the bicycle.
The registration of bicycles is required for two reasons:
- Better control of bicycle parking and assistance in locating the owner, if possible, when specific violations require impoundment.
- To aid in the prevention of theft and assistance in recovering the bicycle, should a theft occur.
When registering your bicycle, please bring the bicycle to the Public Safety Office. Bicycle registration permits can be obtained from the Division of Public Safety 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.
Regulations:
Parking or storage of bicycles in areas of public access, exits, stairwells, hallways, porches, and lounges, is strictly prohibited due to fire safety regulations. Bicycles are not to be taken inside buildings. Bicycle racks and storage lockers are available in exterior locations. Bicycles parked or stored in violation of the above, unregistered bicycles, unlocked bicycles, and abandoned bicycles will be impounded. Bicycles may not remain on campus during summer break.
Bicycle Security:
All riders of bicycles are encouraged to take the following precautions in order to protect their property:
- Always lock your bike. Use a high security lock. Cables may be cut!
- Engrave your driver's license number (or Stetson registration number) into the bike frame: Engravers are available for use at the Division of Public Safety.
- When you leave campus for extended periods, make certain your bike is safely stored or take it with you, and always park your bike in designated areas.
