In case of current employment, it is more specifically prohibited by Gov. Code Sec. 18000 and ICSUAM 5210 Sec.300. Moreover, former employees are not allowed to receive public property as a bonus or extra compensation, according to CA Constitution Article 4, Sec.17. All University property must be returned to the University upon retiring or end of employment.

Fill out a Property Survey Request Form (PDF) and contact the University Police Department (UPD) and Property Office.  If the missing asset contains sensitive information (computer, tablet, handheld device etc.), contact Information Technology Services (ITS) Department.
