While my mom was attending USF the late '60s/early 70s, someone hoisted a VW beetle partway up the tower. It was apparently left danging for 2 or 3 days.
I was lucky enough to find the door you describe unlocked one night as I aimlessly walked the campus.
This was in 2003. The door has been locked every time I've tried it since.
