Q: What is an “unlocker?”

A: "Unlockers” are the building service workers who unlock the campus buildings each day. They are trained to respond to emergencies (including floodings or clean-ups) as needed. Unlockers often start working at 5 a.m. to prepare campus for MSU employees and students. If an unlocker is needed for a special event, the cost is determined per incident.
