Access to Campus Facilities
Generally, The Graduate Center is open to students and visitors from 8:00 A. M. to 10:00 P. M. Monday through Friday, 10:00 A. M. to 6:00 P. M. on Saturday and 12:00 P. M. to 6:00 P. M. on Sunday.
Access to The Graduate Center is by presentation of a Graduate Center or CUNY ID card. Others having qualifying reasons to enter may gain access by presenting picture identification and signing in. Those entering are subject to screening by Graduate Center officers for compliance with expectations for sobriety, sanitation, and peacefulness. Visible CCTV cameras at entryways and select access routes and elevators also help deter unauthorized presences.
There are no on-campus residences or officially recognized off-campus student organization facilities and the college no longer arranges for student apartment housing off campus. When the college provided a limited amount of off campus apartments, the college obtained and published statistics for crimes that occurred in this housing and on public property immediately adjacent to it.
Library access is generally provided to all CUNY students and faculty, Graduate Center alumni, Friends of The Graduate Center, and authorized non-CUNY scholars and community users. All library access is subject to screening by an entry point officer and librarians. Library hours may be extended from time to time, whereby there is always an officer present.
