Cornell provides this annual report of crimes reported on or near campus and college property in compliance with the Jeanne Clery Disclosure of Campus Security Policy and Campus Crime Statistics Act (Clery Act), codified at 20 U.S.C. 1092 (f) as part of the Higher Education Act of 1965 (HEA).

Statistical data from incident reports made to the college is collected, assessed, and published into an annual report to the federal government by the Dean of Students Office. The annual report categories and legal definitions of crimes are specified by the federal government. The calendar year timeline and schedule for annual reports to be submitted to the government between August and October of each year are also requirements specified by the federal government.  

This report is distributed to all students, faculty, and staff members. A complete copy of the report is available in hard copy, upon request from the Office of Campus Safety or the Human Resources Office. Statistical Data is collected, assessed, and published by the Dean of Student's Office.

During the calendar years indicated, the following crimes were reported to campus officials, Campus Safety, and the police.

Note: Incidents that occur in on-campus residential facilities will be entered in both "on campus" and "residential facilities".

Daily crime log

This daily crime log is provided in accordance with the regulations set out under the Jeanne Clery Disclosure of Campus Security Policy and Campus Crime Statistics Act. Other Cornell College publications regarding campus safety and crime activity may not use the same guidelines and, therefore, may not contain comparable information.

Crime information is available for viewing Monday through Friday during normal business hours (8 a.m. to 4:30 p.m.) at the Campus Safety Office located in Ebersole Center.

When listing the name of a location one might disclose the identity of a student, the generic listing "Cornell College" will be used for the location.

  • Date/Time: The date & time the incident was reported.
  • Date/Time: The date & time the incident occurred.
