Daily-use coin-operated lockers and long-term rental lockers (semester or academic year) are available for student and employee use. The College reserves the right to manage lockers to preserve the health and safety of all individuals on campus.

The College has established guidelines to ensure responsible use and to control the contents of its lockers. By utilizing the College’s lockers, students and employees acknowledge and agree that locker use is a privilege and subject to immediate termination without notice if such guidelines are not adhered to. At no time will the College relinquish its exclusive control of lockers, which are for the temporary use and convenience of students and employees.

  • Students are to use lockers exclusively to store school-related materials. The College reserves the right to restrict the use of lockers to currently registered students or employees of the institution only, and may request proof of current student registration.
  • College of DuPage will not be responsible for the loss or damage of goods under any conditions; therefore, users shall not store valuable items in lockers.

The following is a partial listing of instances when the College will exercise an inspection at its discretion without notice:
    • Suspected locker abandonment
    • Suspected contents that may be illegal, illicit or deemed by the College to be harmful, offensive or inappropriate, and/or at the request of, or generally in cooperation with, police authorities

  • Lockers may not be utilized during Summer Break (between Summer and Fall Semesters) nor during Winter Break (between Fall and Spring Semesters).
