Annual Campus Reports

Each month all campus crime statistics are submitted to the Uniform Crime Reporting Bureau, Crime Records Division in Austin, Texas, 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 campus newspaper The Pine Log, 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 the reporting of crime encouraged, but incidents which may affect security at some 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 UPD of problems on campus.

At SFA, the safety and well-being of our students, faculty, staff and visitors are always our priority. With the support of other university departments, we have hundreds of people involved in keeping this campus safe and secure. However, a truly safe campus can only be achieved through the cooperation of all students, faculty and staff. This Annual Fire and Safety Report (2023) is a part of our effort to ensure that this collaborative endeavor is effective. We hope that you will read it carefully and use the information to help foster a safe environment for yourself and others on campus.
