  Because of the law’s complex reporting and classification requirements, the most reasonable and effective way to manage the reporting is as follows: If you observe any crime listed above, or if any person reveals to you that they were a victim of, perpetrator of, or witness to any crime listed above, immediately contact the Office of Public Safety at ext. 2100. Please do not investigate the crime or attempt to determine if a crime in fact took place. Simply report the information you have to the Office of Public Safety. If you are in doubt as to whether a crime is reportable, please err on the side of reporting the matter.

  If you have questions regarding your reporting obligations, please contact a representative of the Office of Public Safety at ext. 2100 for clarification.
