Students can now be fined $150 if covered smoke detectors or other fire hazards are found in their rooms or residence halls during an unannounced periodic fire safety inspection, which Residence Life and University officials will be conducting, according to Director of Student Development and Conduct Erika Lamarre."Due to [fire] safety concerns, unannounced periodic checks in the halls between now and the end of semester will now be performed," wrote Community Development Coordinator Laura Arroyo in an e-mail sent to Ziv Quad residents yesterday.In an e-mail to residents of Massell Quad, CDC Brian Koslowski wrote, "Residence Life needs to do [fire safety spot checks] because we keep finding covered smoke detectors throughout campus," referring to the recent incident in which the University was fined $23,000 by the Waltham Fire Department after covered smoke detectors were found in several rooms.
