Annual Campus Crime Statistics
Each month all campus crime statistics are submitted to the Crime Records Division of the Uniform Crime Reporting Bureau, which uses the FBI's Uniform Crime Reporting Handbook as its guide. All crimes and arrests described in the Campus Security Act of 1990 are incorporated into this annual report.
The prompt reporting of campus crimes is encouraged through the student handbook, emergency telephone numbers in all campus buildings, officer briefings of residence hall supervisors and resident assistants, and daily contact by the officers with the campus population.
Not only is crime reporting encouraged, but incidents which may affect security at a future date are recorded. Reports of crimes in other jurisdictions are furnished immediately to those authorities and, in turn, local and county authorities immediately advise The University of Texas System Police Department at SFA of problems on campus.
