FLORENCE, Ala. – The University of North Alabama will be installing nearly 60 cameras to monitor the doors of its residence halls.
The cameras will watch over dorm lobbies and public areas. Additionally, a card access system and an alarm system to monitor propped doors will be installed. When there is an alarm, the on-duty resident advisor and other resident life staff will be notified.
