Campus Compliance and Security Report
MCTC encourages all students and College community members to be fully aware of the safety issues on and around the campus and to take action to prevent and to report illegal and inappropriate activities. Personal awareness and applying personal safety practices are the foundation of a safe community.
Each year MCTC’s Public Safety Department creates and publishes an annual Campus Compliance and Security Report offering three years of campus crime statistics. The Crime Awareness and Campus Security Act requires that this report include information about particular types of crimes that occur in and around MCTC campus properties. This report further includes policy statements, program descriptions and procedures to follow in response to criminal activities.
A copy of this report can be obtained by calling the Public Safety Department at 612-659-6910.
