Community College is required by the "Jeanne
Clery Disclosure of Campus Policy and Campus Crime Statistics
Act (1998)" to
provide an annual security report to the community and to the
US Department of Education. The campus crimes that are reported
for the Clery Act include murder, sex offenses (forcible and
non-forcible), robbery, burglary, aggravated assault, motor vehicle
theft, manslaughter and arson. The College must also report "arrest
or disciplinary referrals for liquor, drug, and weapons offenses" and
hate crimes by classification.
The
College is strongly committed to providing a safe and secure
campus environment. The "Campus Crime Report" is
part of our effort to forewarn you of certain crimes that have
been committed on our campus as well as to promote an awareness
of the available security services of the College. Students and
visitors to the campus should be aware that preventive efforts
on your part can effectively reduce the chances of you becoming
a victim while on campus. (note: the Campus Crime Report is posted
here and is also in the schedule of classes published for each
semester). The report indicates that WCC has a low incidence
of crime with burglary being the most reported crime.
The
College accepts reports of criminal activity in confidence; particularly
crimes of sexual violence allowing the victim to report through
a third party and/or to remain anonymous. The College also requests
that all campus counselors encourage their clients, when appropriate,
to report criminal violations on a voluntary, confidential basis
for inclusion in the annual disclosure of crime statistics. Any
incident of criminal activity can also be reported to the Director
of Administrative Services in Hale Alakai 120 or by calling 235-7405.
