General Security Information
In Fall 2009, approximately 5,800 undergraduates and
180
graduate students were enrolled at the College at Oneonta.
Approximately 3,150 undergraduate students resided in 15 residence halls on the
campus (a 15th hall is currently undergoing renovations). The
college employs approximately 250 full-time faculty and 200
part-time faculty and 950 staff in administrative and support positions.
Students, faculty, and employees have access to academic, recreational
and administrative facilities on campus during regular hours of
operation. Access to the residence halls, however, is limited to
students and their guests according to a guest procedure presented in
the College Handbook in Appendix B. Access to the residence
halls by college employees is on an “as needed” basis and incorporates
strict key control procedures through the physical plant.
The public can attend cultural and recreational events on campus with
their access limited only to the facilities in which these events are
held. To report any violations of this policy or to a report suspicious
person, dial campus extension 3550 for the University Police.
Crime Reporting
All members of the campus community are expected to report criminal
incidents, emergencies and suspicious activity. Monthly reminders
appear in the campus newsletter (the Bulletin). The campus emergency
number is 3550 or 911 and this should be used for all fire, medical and
police emergencies. All reports are classified, logged, and responded
to thoroughly.
Crimes in progress, and any other emergencies on campus can be reported
directly by any student, faculty member, employee, or any community
member to the university police department by dialing campus extension
3550 or 911. The University Police can also be reached using campus
blue light emergency phones or the residence hall door phones, which
have a red campus police emergency button. Upon receipt of the call,
University Police officers are dispatched immediately to the site of the
complaint. They prepare and submit incident reports which are kept on
file.
Members of the campus community can also report criminal incidents to
the following offices:
| Vice President for Student Development |
2513 |

The offices noted above also allow victims and
witnesses to report crime on a voluntary, confidential basis.
Faculty and staff with responsibility for student advisement and
counseling are advised annually of their responsibility to report
criminal incidents and refer students who choose voluntary, confidential
reporting. Reports of this nature are filed with the University
Police for information purposes, but there is no formal investigation of
the incident.
The University Police
department maintains an anonymous Silent Witness website at
http://www.oneonta.edu/admin/police/silent_witness.html.

UNIVERSITY POLICE DEPARTMENT
Campus safety and security are coordinated by the university police
department, which has a force of 18 sworn police officers with full
arrest powers. As an armed police department, patrol members
respond to all emergencies, dispatched by six professionally trained dispatchers.
State University of New York police officers must meet the highest
standards in New York State for law enforcement officers. The officers
have passed a basic training program administered by the State
University of New York State Police Academy in Albany, NY or a local
regional police academy, and undergo continuous training to upgrade
their skills. Officers have been trained in emergency medical
procedures and first aid. They conduct foot, bike, and vehicular
patrols on the campus and residence hall areas 24 hours a day, 365 days
a year.
The objective of the university police is to provide a safe environment
for teaching, research and social endeavors and to protect the lives and
property of the students, employees and visitors of the state university
college. This objective is pursued within the framework of the
College at Oneonta rules and regulations and all local, state and
federal laws. The investigation of crimes committed on the campus
fall under the jurisdiction of the University Police department.
The University Police also work
closely with the city police, sheriff’s department, and the New York
State Police to assist them with incidents that may occur off campus but
involve campus staff or students. In addition, the department maintains
up-to-date Memoranda of Understanding (MOU) with the City of Oneonta
Police, Town of Oneonta Constable, Otsego County Sheriff, Village of
Cooperstown Police and Hartwick College Safety and Security. While
the New York State Police will not enter into an MOU, they have assured
the campus they will respond to appropriate situations and University
Police maintains a strong working relationship with the local Zone
Commander.
The College is the host site for the Otsego County Law Enforcement
Academy. The Academy is directed by a University Police officer,
with many University Police officers serving as certified instructors.
The Academy offers the Department of Criminal Justice Services mandated
training program that every NYS police officer must successfully
complete within one year of hiring date. Additional in-service
training courses for certified law enforcement officers are offered
throughout the year.
Emergency Response and Evacuation Procedures
The
College uses NY-ALERT as an emergency contact system designed to send
e-mail, recorded voice, and text messages to multiple addresses and
phone numbers, in response to any event or situation on the campus which
poses a serious safety concern, including weather related class
cancellations. The system is tested at each semester.
Faculty,
staff, and students are strongly encouraged to provide their emergency
contact information, which is sent to the State Emergence Management
Organization by SUNY System Administration. Students are reminded to
provide/update their information regularly when they access campus web
services. Employees are contacted each semester to provide/update
information in NY- ALERT. Complete guidelines for initiating an
emergency message can be found at:
http://www.oneonta.edu/security/documents/NY-Alert_Acceptable_Use.pdf

Personal Safety
In 2007, the
College distributed
crisis management folders
to all employees and resident students
with information for use in times of emergency.
New employees and students receive a copy each
fall. The
folder
contains
procedures for emergency response, reporting emergencies, dealing with
threats, and student emergencies. Inserts in the folder include
Bomb Threat Procedures, Emergency Evacuation
Procedures and Shelter-in-place procedures.
Missing Student Notification
All reports of potential missing students are immediately directed to
the University Police Department which immediately begins an
investigation according to established procedures. If the student is
determined to be missing, the central staff duty officer and/or the vice
president for student development is notified.
Students who reside on campus have
the option to identify an
individual to be contacted by the institution not later than 24 hours
after the time that the student is determined missing in accordance with
these procedures. Contact information is collected by the office of
Residential and Community Life in conjunction with room selection or
roommate preference data collection processes. For any student who is
under 18 years of age, and not an emancipated individual, the
institution is required to notify a custodial parent or guardian not
later than 24 hours after the time that the student is determined to be
missing in accordance with these procedures.
Policy on Alcohol and Drugs
The University Police enforce laws regulating underage drinking and the
use of controlled substances and weapons. The illegal possession and/or
use of marijuana, barbiturates, amphetamines, hallucinogenic compounds,
narcotics and other controlled substances are in violation of state and
federal law. The College complies with the requirements of the New York
State Alcohol Beverage Control Law and the New York State Penal Code,
which provides that “no person under the age of 21 will possess any
alcoholic beverage with the intent to consume such beverage.” The campus
alcohol policy prohibits alcoholic beverages in residence halls and at
student events. On a limited and highly selective basis, the campus
policy is waived and alcoholic beverages are served at student functions
in accordance with federal, state, and local laws. The Division of Student
Development provides counseling and regularly offers programs and courses
on drugs and alcohol. Under certain circumstances, the College notifies
parents of violations and makes mandatory referral to an alcohol and drug
education program. The possession, sale or use of any illegal drug on
campus will not be tolerated and the penalty for violation is very
severe. College policy prohibits open containers of alcoholic beverages
in all outside areas on the campus. Bringing alcoholic beverages to any
public or private event on campus is not permitted. Members of the campus
community in need of assistance with respect to a question or personal
problem regarding alcohol or other drugs should contact the student
health center, extension 3573. A
complete description of the College’s drug and alcohol policy and abuse
education programs as required under Section 120(a) through (d) of the
HEA can be found in the Code of Student Conduct and at
http://www.oneonta.edu/development/judicial/code.pdf.
Weapons on Campus
1. Possession or keeping of a deadly weapon or dangerous instrument on
campus (including in any vehicle), or use of any object with intent to
harm another, is prohibited. Deadly weapons or dangerous instruments
include, but are not limited to, firearms, explosives, explosive devices,
knives, blackjacks, chukka-sticks, sling shots, kung fu type weapons.
2. Possession or use of fireworks, firecrackers, etc., is also
prohibited.
3. Possession of any CO-2 type firearm, spring-powered firearms, chemical
aerosol spray, or pepper aerosol spray is also prohibited.
Violators of any section of this policy will be subject to possible
criminal prosecution, if applicable, and appropriate disciplinary action
from the College.
Daily Log
The University Police also maintain a daily log of crimes and incidents
that occur on campus that is available for the public to view. The
information is recorded by date, time and general location, and
disposition of the complaint. This daily log is available at the
University Police department, Alumni Hall, or can be viewed at the
www.oneonta.edu/admin/police website. Please note that entries
or updates are generally made within two business days after the event
occurs. Incidents or situations deemed to pose a threat to the campus
community are logged as soon as possible.
While most events are logged, the office of the Chief of University
Police, may determine that an incident be classified as “confidential” in
order not to jeopardize a criminal investigation or the identity of a
victim.
Crime Prevention Activities
Members of the campus community are urged to secure their valuables and
be aware of their surroundings. To assist in this endeavor, the
University Police hold educational programs each semester on a variety of
topics including personal safety awareness and security, rape
awareness/sexual assertiveness training, and anti-theft programs.
Information on safety and security is provided on request to students and
employees regularly via seminars, videos, crime alerts, posters,
brochures, the student newspapers and at
www.oneonta.edu/admin/police.
During orientation, programs are presented which address sexual assault,
fire safety, and other personal safety topics. Students are also informed
of many personal safety services available on campus, which include
campus escort, blue light emergency phone system, rape counseling, mental
health services, and emergency response.
Services available through the University Police department throughout
the year include motorist assistance, lost and found, and assistance with
class projects.
The physical plant department maintains the campus buildings and grounds
with a concern for safety and security. It inspects campus facilities
regularly, promptly makes repairs affecting safety and security, and
responds immediately to reports of potential safety and security hazards,
such as broken windows and locks. Concerns about the physical safety of
campus buildings and rounds, should be directed to the physical plant
office Monday through Friday, 7:00 a.m. to 3:30 p.m., at extension 2507.
For emergencies that occur during non-business hours, call the University
Police Department at extension 3550 or 911.
The college campus is well lighted, and further lighting improvements are
regularly made. These include placing high intensity sodium vapor lights
on buildings, in parking lot areas, in areas with heavy landscaping and
trees, and along pathways frequently traveled by students. In addition to
a telephone in each student’s room, there are 31 blue light emergency
telephones strategically located throughout the campus, which are
connected directly to the University Police. Additional sites are being
considered for more outdoor emergency telephones.
Relationships with Other Police Departments
Criminal activity at off-campus apartments occupied by students and
student clubs is monitored by the university police department in
cooperation with the city police and New York State police. These
agencies may also assist the university police as needed. Students
involved in off-campus situations involving alcohol/drug offenses or
other criminal activities may be referred to the campus judicial program.
Campus Crime Statistics
In accordance with recent updates to the “Campus Safety Act,” data are
presented at the end of this report to review crime activity both on
campus and on streets adjacent to campus property. This information can
also be found at
http://ope.ed.gov/Security. A map, which defines these areas, appears
at the end of this report. Reported on-campus offenses include all
offenses reported on campus property and in campus buildings. A specific
breakdown of offenses occurring in university owned residence halls
appears under “residence halls” or “other student residences.”
Two other categories are presented in this chart: “non-campus buildings
or property” and “public property.” The first category, non-campus
buildings or property, includes properties owned by student organizations
officially recognized by the institution and those owned by the
university outside the campus boundaries that appear on the map at the
end of this report. The offenses presented in this report include those
reported by the State Police or County Sheriff at the Biological Field
Station and Thayer property in Cooperstown, New York, the Cooperstown Graduate Program and
the College Camp on Upper East Street. They also include offenses
reported by the Oneonta City Police Department at the East Street
residence.
The second category, public property, includes thoroughfares, streets,
sidewalks and parking facilities immediately adjacent to the campus.
This section on campus crime statistics also includes arrests and
disciplinary referrals made to campus authorities for alcohol, drugs and
weapons possession. As defined by the campus safety act, a disciplinary
referral is an instance when a student is formally reported in writing to
a university officer for possible sanction.
As required by the Campus Safety Act, the College at Oneonta is required
to report hate crimes in this report. For this reporting, a hate crime
occurs when a person is victimized intentionally because of his or her
actual or perceived race, gender, religion, sexual orientation, ethnicity
or disability.
The crimes presented are based on reports filed with the following
offices: Chief of University Police, Vice President for Student
Development, Associate Vice President for Student Life, Director of Judicial Affairs,
Student Health Center, Office of Residential Community Life, Counseling
Center, Director of Student Activities, Multicultural Student Affairs,
and
Director of Athletics. Formal requests for crime statistics for areas
defined as “public property” and “non-campus buildings and property” were
made with the Oneonta Police Department, the Town of Oneonta Police
Department, and the Otsego County Sheriff’s Department.
Security in Residence Halls
The College at Oneonta Department of Residential Community Life is
committed to providing a safe environment in the residence halls.
Students are made aware of safety concerns as well as tips on prevention
through brochures, pamphlets, floor meetings, and presentations. While
there are many safeguards in place for residence hall students, each
student must do his/her part to assure a safe and secure environment by
adhering to the safety related policies and procedures. Each of the
residence halls is supervised by a residence hall director.
The hall director is a professional staff person who lives and works in
the residence hall. On almost every floor, there is also a resident
advisor. A resident advisor (RA) is an upper class student who has
received extensive training in many different aspects of residence hall
living. The hall directors and resident advisors undergo training in
enforcing residence hall safety and security policies as well as being
aware of potential safety hazards and concerns. There is a hall director
on duty for the campus every evening from 4:30 p.m. to 8:00 a.m., and
each residence hall has an RA on duty from 7:00 p.m. to 7:00 a.m. the
next morning.
Every residence hall student is provided access to the main entrance of
their residence hall through special identification cards embedded with a
proximity chip read by a reader at the door. Room access is provided via
a key or combination code. All residence halls are locked 24 hours a day.
An on-campus telephone is located at the main entrance of each hall for
visitors to contact students for entry. Student staff members (night
hosts) are on duty from 11:00 p.m. until early morning hours. Night hosts
sit at a desk with a telephone at the front entrance of each residence
hall to check students ID’s and register guests and visitors entering the
residence hall with their host/hostess. They also report any unusual
circumstances or situations in the residence hall. Although the campus is
a safe place to live, there is always the potential for crime.
Student conduct is regulated by the Student Code of Conduct.
The Code is available on line and hard copies can be obtained at the
Student Development Office. All students are required to
acknowledge they have read and understand the Code on an annual basis.
Sanctions for violation of the Code include: Suspension, Restrictive
Disciplinary Probation, General Probation, Residence Hall License
Revocation, Residence Hall Transfer, Residence Hall Probation, Residence
Hall Ban, a letter of reprimand, Restitution of property, Educational
sanctions, Dismissal, a letter of admonishment.
Residence hall students should not be lulled into a false sense of
security. All members of campus community need to be aware of the
environment and the possible consequences of their behavior. The College at Oneonta is committed to
maintaining an environment in which students, faculty, staff and guests
can work together free from all forms of harassment, exploitation and
intimidation. The College at Oneonta will act as needed to discourage,
prevent, correct and if necessary discipline behavior that violates this
standard of conduct. The University Police department will promptly
investigate allegations of unlawful discrimination based on race, color,
sex, religion, age, national origin, marital status, sexual orientation,
disability, or status as a veteran. Allegations of unlawful
discrimination can first be discussed with the Counseling Center, the
Office of Judicial Affairs, or the Vice President for Student
Development.
Sexual Crimes Information
Rape and sexual assault, such as sexual abuse and sodomy, constitute
crimes. Such behavior is prohibited by New York State law (see Section
130 of the New York State Penal Law) and the Code of Student Conduct. The
college strongly condemns sexual harassment in any form. The College
provides educational programs to promote the awareness of rape,
acquaintance rape and other sex offenses through its PAIRS program
throughout the year, including campus-wide and residence hall programs.
Allegations of sexual assault or rape should be reported to the
University Police Department at 436-3550. Allegations of sexual
harassment should be reported to the Affirmative Action office, ext.
2509. Victims of a sex crime may choose to report the offense to any
office which appears in the section of this report titled Crime
Reporting. Victims of a sex offense will also be informed of their option
to notify either University Police or city police and will be assisted by
college personnel in notifying the police if desired.
Allegations of sexual assault or rape occurring off campus should be
reported to the city police, county sheriff’s department or the New York
State Police. In addition to campus counseling services, victims may also
choose the Rape Crisis Center 432-4855 and/or Fox Mental Health Clinic,
431-5412. Efforts will be made to ensure the confidentiality of all
reports, except as necessary and required to investigate the alleged
offenses. College authorities may issue a safety alert to those areas of
the college community affected by the crime. The issuance of this alert
will depend on the particular circumstances of the crime. Victims can
provide information to the University Police and choose either criminal
prosecution and/or a referral to the on-campus discipline system.
Procedures and possible sanctions related to on-campus discipline are
discussed in the Code of Student Conduct. Victims of sex crimes should
contact the office of judicial affairs ext. 3353 for additional
information. The Code of Student Conduct outlines the procedures that can
occur if a victim decides to report an incident. It is important to note
that the accuser and the accused are entitled to the same opportunities
to have others present during a disciplinary proceeding. Both the accuser
and the accused will be informed of the outcome of any campus
disciplinary action including the sanction to be imposed. Such sanctions
can include suspension and expulsion from the institution.
Sexual Assault Information (Aid to Victims of Violence)
If you are a victim of sexual assault, immediately report the assault to
the police. Call 3550 or 911. Police cannot investigate the incident as a
crime unless you file a formal report. Reporting a crime to the police or
to another campus office does not necessarily obligate you to follow
through with criminal prosecution.
- Go to a hospital emergency room as soon as possible if the assault
involved a sexual penetration or other physical injuries. (Evidence can
be collected several hours after an attack, but its value may be
diminished.) Do not wash, change clothing, or otherwise “clean-up.”
Bring a full change of clothing because the clothes you were wearing at
the time of the attack may be kept as evidence.
- Your follow-up medical care is crucially important. You may need
tests for sexually transmitted diseases and pregnancy.
- No matter when or where the assault occurred, campus support and
outside resources are available to help. Contact at least one of the
offices listed under emergency resources.
Statement of Victims’ Rights
- Victims have the right to choose counseling and medical treatment,
and to prosecute and report their case through the College judicial
system and/or the off-campus court system. They also have the right to
refuse all these options without reproach from any college personnel.
- Victims have the right to be treated with dignity and seriousness
by campus personnel.
- Victims of crimes against an individual have the right to be
reasonably free from intimidation and harm.
- College personnel are encouraged to inform all victims that:
victims are not responsible for crimes committed against them;
victims are not negligent toward their own and thus do not
assume the risk of crime;
victims should always report their crime, despite the possibility of
adverse publicity for the college.
- Victims will be made aware of appropriate student services,
including counseling.
- Victims are entitled to the same support opportunities available to
the accused in a campus disciplinary proceeding.
- If the accused is prohibited from contacting the victim or entering
the victim’s residence the victim will be notified that the ban is in
effect.
- Any victim who does not wish to remain in his/her present residence
hall or class section may be granted a transfer to other housing or
another class section if available.
- The victim has the right to information regarding the status of
his/her case.
Information concerning registered sex offenders may be obtained from
the Chief of Police, c/o University Police Department, Alumni Hall or
