Can my items be stolen if I leave them somewhere?

Question

I haven't bought a house, but I have my own quarters as [spoiler] :

the Archmage of Winterhold, after Savos Aren dies and I bring back the Staff of Magnus.

If I put some items in a chest by the bed, will they stay there permanently until I remove them... or could they be stolen by NPCs, disappear over time, etc.?

On a related note, I've noticed that items remain until I come back when dropped arbitrarily across landscape, buildings, and caves. Has anyone experienced a case where this is not true?

Answer

Yes, they will be safe in those quarters. I have all the unique artifact style weapons and armor I've acquired and am not using in that exact chest. The earliest ones have been in there for at least 50 hours now. The alchemical components and soul gems on the shelves in the room have restocked a few times, my collection of knick-knacks is fine.
