SUNY Plattsburgh Campus Crime Statistics

Campus Safety: It's Everyone's Concern

The University Police Department at Plattsburgh State submits monthly crime reports to the New York State Division of Criminal Justice Services. This data is then submitted to the United States Department of Justice for the Uniform Crime Report.

The following statistics reflect the number of offenses reported by University Police, college officials, and area law enforcement according to the reporting periods required by the Title II - Crime Awareness and Security Act. The definitions for these offenses can be found in the Uniform Crime Reports, which are printed annually by the Federal Bureau of Investigation, U.S. Department of Justice.

University Police prepares this report annually and it is electronically available here.

Crime stat information can also be obtained from the U.S. Department of Education Website.
