Campus Crime, Reporting, and Statistics

A victim of any crime, especially sexual assault, domestic violence, dating violence, stalking or a hate crime occurring on campus, should immediately report the incident to Campus Safety at 212-517-0411, or the local police at 911 for any incident occurring off campus. Anyone who wishes to report an incident or provide information anonymously can do so using the Confidential Security Hotline; 212-774-4878 all calls are kept confidential.

The MMC Advisory Committee on Campus Security can provide all campus crime statistics as reported to the United States Department of Education. This information can be found online or obtained by request from the Director of Campus Safety (212-517-0685).

Additionally, in accordance with the Jeanne Clery Disclosure of Campus Security Policy and Campus Crime Statistics Act (Clery Act) and related amendments of the education laws of New York State, MMC acquaints students and employees with these regulations by way of an Annual Campus Security Report. This report includes statistics for the previous three years concerning reported crimes that have occurred on-campus and in certain off-campus buildings or property owned or controlled by the College and on public property within, or immediately adjacent to and accessible from the campus. Also included are institutional policies concerning campus security, sexual assault and other relevant matters. You may obtain a copy of this report by contacting the Director of Campus Safety at 212-517-0685 or online.

HATE CRIMES AND BIAS INCIDENTS

Any hate crime occurring on campus should be immediately reported to Campus Safety at 212-517-0411; if the incident occurs off campus, call 911. MMC will assist any student with making notifications to the proper authorities.

Any member of the MMC Community may report a bias incident to the Bias Incident Response Team member either in writing, via email to Desiree Sholes (dsholes@mmm.edu), or via the online reporting link. Once reported, an investigation of the incident will be conducted in a timely manner and appropriate actions will be taken.

For more information on the difference between hate crimes and bias incidents, or to report a bias incident, please see the Bias Incident Response Team section in this Griffin Guide.
