Campus Security

As can be seen from the figures, Mars Hill College is a very safe Campus. There are, however, incidents that do occur on this Campus. If they are considered a threat to our community, we will report on it through our College Information Channel, The Well, and through the posting of orange Security Alert Bulletins in strategic areas of the Campus. Mars Hill College does not recognize any off-Campus groups or own student housing off the main Campus.

*All cases were referred to the local law enforcement agency for investigation.
**Burglary is defined by this report to cover an unauthorized entry into a dorm room with the intent to take something of value. A majority of these incidents are where a student did not lock their dorm room, and someone entered the room and took an item of value.

Referrals: These are from incidents referred to our campus judicial system and are required in this report. The definitions used for the above crimes are taken from the FBI Uniform Crime Report. A copy is on file in the Campus Security Office.
