This document is prepared in compliance with the Jeanne Clery Campus Safety Act (20 USC 1092(f)). Grand Rapids Community College (GRCC) wants all students and employees to take an active role in safety and security. An important part of that process is educating ourselves about potential hazards and about available resources to use when needed.
While it is impossible to totally isolate ourselves from crime or other threats to our safety, we can take steps to protect ourselves and respond appropriately when faced with danger. We urge everyone to be aware of their environment and to continually strive to maintain the highest level of safety within our community.
GRCC's Annual Security Report (ASR) is available for review. This report is required by the federal law and contains statistics for the previous three years concerning reported crimes that occurred on-campus; in certain non-campus buildings or property owned and controlled by GRCC; and on public property within, or immediately adjacent to and accessible from the campus. The ASR also includes institutional policies concerning campus security, such as policies concerning sexual misconduct, emergency procedures and other matters. This report is available online. You can also request a hard copy by visiting the GRCC Police Department. If you would like to receive a printed copy of the ASR, you can stop by the GRCC Police Department at 25 Lyon Street NE or you can request a copy be mailed to you by calling (616) 234-4012.
