Crime Statistics (Calendar Years 2004, 2005, 2006)

The following statistics are presented to increase safety awareness campus-wide.  Amendments to The Jeanne Clery Act require the office to present the number of on-campus incidents of murder, sex offenses, robbery, aggravated assault, burglary, motor vehicle theft and arson formally reported to the public safety office and/or the Greensboro Police Department. Statistics concerning liquor laws, drug abuse and weapons violations indicate the number of arrests and/or referrals for campus disciplinary action for the specified periods of time.
