Crime Statistics

Campus Safety Report

In accordance with the Crime Awareness and Campus Security Act, Georgetown College presents this campus safety report. The college encourages every member of the college community to review this report so that each may be informed as to the means of preventing and reporting campus crime.

Reporting Crime

When a crime takes place or if you know of one that is going to take place, it is the students duty to inform Campus Safety immediately in order to respond quickly to the scene or to prevent the crime from taking place.

Campus Activity

Georgetown College is private property and is maintained for the use of the college community and authorized persons only. We also restrict access to the living areas in our residence halls to the residents who live there and their guests.

Law Enforcement

Our professional team of campus safety officers are dedicated to protecting all persons on the Georgetown College campus. In conjunction with Georgetown City Police Dept. Campus Safety works to keep our college community safe and free of crime.

Secure Programs

  • Conducting meetings with incoming freshmen and parents during orientation. At this meeting we introduce staff and encourage the use of the escort service along with making this document available.
  • Meeting with resident directors and resident assistants at the beginning of school each fall. At this time we discuss what procedures are for reporting as well as preventing crime on campus.
  • Placing and rotating posters in residence halls and campus buildings informing the campus about safety awareness.
  • Meeting with the Association of Georgetown Students (AGS) at least yearly, to address the issues of concern.
  • Providing a Campus Safety manual describing services, emergency procedures, parking, etc.
  • Providing programs, one a semester, to inform members of the college community about their need to be responsible for their own security, including locking doors, crossing campus, etc. Student life residence hall programming also enhances our students' safety awareness by providing workshops on such topics as:
    • Date and acquaintance rape
    • Self-defense
    • Substance abuse
    • Alcohol awareness
    • Self-esteem
    • CPR training
    • Personal health

Crime Prevention

Campus Safety takes crime prevention very seriously. The campus community can aid in the prevention in crime by alerting Campus Safety of any suspicions activities. Campus Safety- ext. 8111

FOR 2007

Campus Security Authority

1a. “Campus police, security officers, and any official at a postsecondary educational institution who has significant responsibility for student and campus activities, including student discipline, student housing, student judicial affairs, and student life administration. Professional mental health, pastoral, and other licensed counselors when functioning in that capacity are not considered campus safety authorities”.

2a. The Georgetown College Department of Campus Safety functions as a service group rather than a law enforcement office. The Department of Campus Safety works very closely with the Georgetown City Police Department for issues involving required investigations and/or arrest. The Office of Student Life has direct responsibility for enforcement of Student Disciplinary procedures.

3a. The Georgetown College Department of Campus Safety works closely with local, state and federal law enforcement agencies. The Georgetown Chief of Police has agreed to work with the college on reporting requirements outlined under this act.

Section 2: Description of Information Programs

1a. The Georgetown College Department of Campus Safety publishes a handout that is distributed on campus and contains information on fire safety, weapons possession, escort services, sexual assault, and crime prevention. Georgetown College has an organized Safety Committee that works with each department on remedies of safety concerns or issues.

1b. The Campus Safety Handout contains information on the proper procedure to contact Campus Safety. Student Life publishes and distributes a list of names and telephone numbers for reporting emergencies and non-emergencies.

1c. The Director of Campus Safety conducts a meeting at the beginning of the Fall Semester and discusses personal safety. Student Life conducts classes each semester and promotes awareness of rape, date rape, and other forcible and non-forcible sexual offences. Georgetown College has in the past invited the Kentucky State Police, Scott Count Sheriff’s Department and the Georgetown City Police to come to campus to conduct seminars on personal safety. Georgetown College will continue to use these methods of notification if the agencies are willing to help.
