Crime Statistics and Reporting

Crime reports and related information are sent to the New York State Police Intelligence Network (NYSPIN) for state and national distribution and to the SUNY Campus Crime Information System for statistical purposes. Monthly crime reports are sent to the New York State Department of Criminal Justice Services. This data is then submitted to the United States Department of Criminal Justice for the Uniform Crime Report. The Advisory Committee on Campus Safety will provide, upon request, all campus crime statistics as reported to the United States Department of Education.

The following statistics reflect the number of on-campus offenses reported to the University officials according to the reporting periods required by title II-Crime Awareness and Security Act. The definitions of these offenses can be found in the United States Department of Criminal Justice Uniform Crime Report.
