8.09 Animal Control
For health and safety reasons, pets, including but not limited to cats
and dogs, are not permitted in university buildings. Service animals and experimental
and instructional animals are exceptions. Consistent with Iowa law, animals
found within university facilities and not part of a university-sponsored
program or project may be impounded. If impoundment is necessary, the
owner of the animal or its claimant will be personally responsible for
all costs associated with reclaiming the animal.
Pets can be permitted in outdoor areas when properly controlled if their
presence does not jeopardize the health, safety, or welfare of individuals
on the campus. Any pets brought on campus must be properly licensed and
vaccinated according to Iowa law, and tags must be attached to the collar
of the pet. |
