My roommate borrowed my laptop last night and didn't return it to me. It is locked in her bedroom and she has left for Christmas break. How can I get into her room without a key?

If your roommate locked your laptop in her bedroom and she has left for Christmas break, there are a few ways that you could potentially get into her room without a key. You could call maintenance and ask if they have a master key that would open the lock, or if not you could ask your roommate to give you a copy of the key. You could also contact your housing office to request a new key or to make other arrangements.

There are several things you can try. If your roommate has a security lock on her door, you can try using a credit card or hotel key to pick the lock. You can also use a rubber door stop and a bit of duct tape to jimmy the door open. You can also try using a credit card or screwdriver to pop the door latch, or simply knock on the door and call out to your roommate. If all else fails, you may need to get a key from the residence hall’s office.
