University of Connecticut prepares this report in compliance with the Jeanne Clery Disclosure of Campus Security Policy and Campus Crime Statistics Act (Clery Act); the State of Connecticut Act Concerning Sexual Violence, Stalking, and Intimate Partner Violence on College Campuses; and An Act Concerning Gun Violence Prevention and Children’s Safety.1 This report includes statistics for calendar years 2015, 2016 and 2017. These statistics pertain to crimes reported to have occurred upon the University’s Clery geography.2 This report also provides statistics for fires reported in on-campus student housing facilities. The report includes institutional policies on campus security, such as policies concerning alcohol and drug use, crime prevention, sexual assault reporting and investigation, educational programming and other matters. Unless otherwise noted, the policies referenced in this report apply to the University’s main campus in Storrs as well as all regional campuses and the law school. For Clery reporting, it is important to note that during calendar year 2016 only the University’s main campus located at Storrs had student housing facilities. The Stamford Campus opened a housing facility in the Fall of 2017. In addition, UConn Health located in Farmington, CT consolidated administrative efforts and their Annual Security and Fire Report requirements are reflected in this publication. The full text of this report is available online at: http://publicsafety.uconn.edu/. This report is prepared in cooperation with many University offices as well as local law enforcement. These entities provide updated information on their educational efforts and programs to comply with the Jeanne Clery Disclosure of Campus Security Policy and Campus Crime Statistics Act. Campus crime, fire, arrest, and referral statistics include reports made directly to the University of Connecticut Police Department as well as those made to designated campus security authorities (CSA) as defined under the Clery Act, and local law enforcement agencies. Each year, an email notification is sent to all enrolled students, faculty, and staff. The email provides information on how to directly access the Annual Security and Fire Safety Report online. Copies of this report may be obtained at the Division of Public Safety headquarters at 126 North Eagleville Road, Storrs, CT. or by request at any of the UConn Police Department locations.
