The Higher Education Opportunity Act of 2008 requires the University to inform students that live in on-campus housing that they have the ability to register the name and contact information of a person who is to be contacted in the event that the student is determined to be missing. This can be either the same person whom you have identified as an Emergency Contact elsewhere, or it can be a different person whom you would like us to contact specifically should you be missing. Your missing person contact will be kept confidential and separate from your Emergency Contact information, and will only be accessed by authorized campus officials. Campus officials will only disclose the contact information to law enforcement and only for the purpose of a missing student investigation. For students that are under 18 years of age and not emancipated, the institution must notify a custodial parent or guardian within 24 hours of the determination that the student is missing, in addition to notifying any additional contact person designated by the student.

In an ongoing effort to ensure that the offerings in our dining hall reflect the needs of our population, we would ask that you provide us with some details regarding your dietary needs. Please note that this information is being collected only to measure trends across our entire population. This data will only be used in aggregate for planning purposes, and will not be used to arrange specific accommodations for specific students. If you feel that you need to discuss your dining needs in more detail, or if you need to arrange for specific dining accommodations, please email peabodyreslife@jhu.edu to discuss your needs further.
