Interrogations and Searches

College District officials may conduct searches of students, their belongings, and their vehicles in accordance with state and federal law and College District policy. Searches of students shall be conducted in a reasonable and nondiscriminatory manner.

College District officials may initiate a search in accordance with law, including, for example, based on reasonable suspicion, voluntary consent, or pursuant to College District policy providing for suspicion-less security procedures, including the use of metal detectors.

In accordance with College District policies and procedures [see FLB], students are responsible for prohibited items found in their possession, including items in their personal belongings or in vehicles parked on College District property.

Searches should be reasonable at their inception and in scope. If there is reasonable suspicion to believe that searching a student's person, belongings, or vehicle will reveal evidence of a violation of College District policy and procedures, a College District official may conduct a search in accordance with law and College District regulations.
