Security Disclosures

Institutional Response to Reported Incidents

Incident Reports

Upon receiving a report of any criminal activity, injury, or accident, security will respond by interviewing the reporting individual for details of the incident and will complete an incident report which is reviewed by the Director of Safety and Security. Copies of incident reports are kept in the office of the Vice President of Administration and Finance. A daily Crime Log is maintained in the Security Office and made available to the public.

Actions

The Security Officer on duty can often respond to an incident by taking such actions as asking a person to leave the campus, or intervening to disperse participants in an incident. In the event of medical emergencies, security or another first responder can contact an ambulance to transport the victim to the hospital. Security works with the Massachusetts State Police in reporting incidents of criminal activity. The Massachusetts State police conduct their own investigation, keeping college officials apprised of the status and dispensation of each case. In the case of incidents or complaints regarding maintenance of buildings and grounds, college staff addresses the concern in response to a Maintenance Request Form completed by the responding Security Officer.

Crime Awareness and Prevention Programming

Programs on personal safety and crime prevention are sponsored by various campus organizations throughout the year. FORUM programs are advertised through flyers or brochures and posted on bulletin boards. During Crime Prevention Month (September), safety tips are offered on 黄瓜视频's Facebook as well as in the publication "The Stall." Campus Security provides table top information during college events such as Orientation and the Welcome Back BBQ.

Prevention

In an ongoing effort to inform students, faculty and staff about safe practice procedures which encourage students and employees to be responsible for their own security and the security of others, the college periodically offers Forums and appropriate presentations from off-campus professionals. Our security staff promotes their services at campus events such as Student Orientation and the Welcome-Back BBQ.
