Due to reduced density on campus during summer and the potential for an increase in unauthorized access to buildings, Metropolitan State University of Denver is making some access-control changes to the exterior doors of MSU Denver buildings.

Changes to building access are as follows:

  • Aerospace Engineering and Sciences Building – Only the main door across from the Dogwood parking lot will remain unlocked Monday through Friday from 7:30 a.m. to 5:30 p.m.
  • Cohen Center for Athletics – All exterior doors will continue to be badge-access-only (this is the case no matter the semester).
  • Hospitality Learning Center – Only the door next to the valet loop and Degree Restaurant will remain unlocked Monday through Thursday from 11 a.m. to 10 p.m.; and Friday and Saturday from 4 p.m. to 10 p.m. It will be closed on Sundays.
  • Jordan Student Success Building – Only the main double doors next to Dazbog will remain unlocked Monday through Friday from 7:30 a.m. to 5 p.m.

All other exterior doors of MSU Denver buildings will be accessible by badge only for the remainder of summer. Over the summer months, the University will collaborate with the Auraria Higher Education Center and institutional partners on long-term solutions to building access and security. Stay tuned for further information.
