Confidentiality

Crimes reported to Counseling Centers are confidential by law.  Some off-campus reports may also be legally confidential – e.g., to clergy, social agencies, and local hospitals.  Reports that are confidential by law will not be reported to the College for inclusion in our annual crime statistics report.  Crimes reported to College officials are included in our annual crime and safety report. 

If you are the victim of a crime and do not want to pursue action within the College disciplinary system or the criminal justice system, you may still want to consider making a confidential report.  Such reports will be kept with the Dean of Student Services and included in the annual crime statistics for the institution.
