Public Safety Alert

Contributed by David Maley on 10/02/07 

A resident of Ithaca College's Circle Apartments (Building 8) reported an amount of money taken from the resident's bedroom sometime between 10:00 p.m. on Saturday, September 29, and 3:00 p.m. on Sunday, September 30. The resident reported the room door was locked at the time of the theft. There was no indication of forced entry.

The incident is being investigated as a burglary.

Anyone with information about this incident is asked to contact the Office of Public Safety at 274-3333.

Students are reminded to keep their residence hall room and apartment doors locked at all times for their own safety. College community members are encouraged to immediately report any suspicious persons or activities on campus to the Office of Public Safety at 274-3333, by blue light phone, or by dialing 911 from any campus phone. Calls made from a cell phone to 911 will be answered by the Tompkins County Dispatch Center and transferred to the Office of Public Safety.

To aid in the prevention of crime and to keep the campus community informed about safety and security issues on an ongoing basis, an institution must alert the campus community of certain crimes in a manner that is timely and will aid in the prevention of similar crimes.

As required by the Jeanne Clery Disclosure of Campus Security Policy and Campus Crime Statistics Act [20 USC 1092 (f)], Crime Awareness and Campus Security Act of 1990 and subsequent amendments, the crimes reported that mandate a "timely warning notice" are in the categories of aggravated assault, arson, burglary, murder and non-negligent homicide, robbery, sexual offenses (forcible and non-forcible), and motor vehicle theft.

The Office of Public Safety monitors the crime reports it receives from the campus community and local police agencies and issues public safety alerts to the campus community on any incidents that are considered to be a serious or continuing threat to students and employees.
