Facilities Liaisons:

The purpose of this email is to share details of the door lock procedure at UO-Portland for the Winter academic break schedule for 2024. This procedure is designed to protect against theft and vandalism while also providing access to specific public facing buildings on the UO’s campuses, as follows:

• UO-Portland building doors will be locked during observed holidays and during specific dates as defined below.
• Faculty, staff, and student employees should already have either keys or prox card access to enter buildings during these times. Departments have authorized individuals who can request access for those who may need it for the Break period.
• No changes will be made to regular individual access, so anyone with existing access will still be able to access their normal locations.

For the days leading up to, during, and after Winter Break the following schedule will be in effect:

Winter break access schedule (beginning on Saturday, December 14^th and ending on Monday, January 6^th): 

 PLLC, public hours Monday – Saturday, 9:00 a.m. – 6:00 p.m.

• Campus Center – card access only, 9:00 a.m.- 6:00 p.m. 
• Innovation – card access only, 9:00 a.m.- 6:00 p.m. 
• Highland Hall – card access only, 9:00 a.m.- 6:00 p.m. 
• Oregon House – no change

Please note that buildings on campus will be closed and locked during the Winter Break period for the dates listed here:

• Christmas Day, Wednesday, 12/25
• New Year’s Day, Wednesday, 1/1

 Authorized individuals may request exceptions to the locking procedure by meeting specific criteria listed in the procedure. Requests for exceptions can be submitted to FASS IT by calling 541-346-2245 or by emailing fass@uoregon.edu, providing as much advance notice as possible, and noting which exception criteria their situation(s) meets. FASS-IT will consult with the Campus Vulnerability Assessment Team on approval of exemptions.
