The LMU Tower, home of the College of Dental Medicine, is secured through an access control system. During the academic year, students may enter the building 24 hours, Sunday through Thursday and 6 am - 12 midnight on Friday and Saturday. After 6 pm on weekdays and during all weekend hours, the buildings are only accessible through access control identification cards. On occasion, access hours are adjusted based on student exam schedules and as needs arise. All identification cards of faculty, staff, and students are programmed for access permissions into the building, designated classrooms, and labs. All LMU students, faculty, and staff are expected to wear their University ID badge when in the LMU Tower building. Visitors are asked to register with the first-floor receptionists to obtain a visitor's badge.
In an effort to protect visitors, faculty, and students from the harmful effects of secondhand smoke, both of the LMU Tower buildings and grounds are tobacco-free zones. No smoking is allowed in the buildings, around the buildings or grounds of LMU Tower.
Public (non-applicant) tours are offered by appointment. Contact CollegeofDentalMedicine@LMUnet.edu
