Updated Access to Burns Hall

East-West Center has implemented security enhancements at Burns Hall effective February 2, 2023. Elevators and the internal center stairwell are now locked to visitors.

  • Visitors who need to meet with RCUH staff: Please sign in using one of the iPads in the lobby. You will need to input your name, email address or mobile number, and the name of who you are meeting (please type in “RCUH” if you are unsure). Call your RCUH contact and wait to be escorted from the lobby to the 4th Floor. Upon departure, visitors must sign out using the iPad or by clicking the link “View guest instructions” in their text message/email from Verkada Guest.
  • Visitors who need to make a pick up or drop off: Schedule a meet-up in advance. We recommend that visitors have the phone number of a RCUH contact to alert them of their arrival. RCUH will then meet the visitor in the lobby or outside the front doors.

These security measures are in accordance with the East-West Center’s Cybersecurity Maturity Model Certification requirements. We thank you for your cooperation to keep everyone safe.
