Crime Statistics
Trocaire College is committed to assisting all members of our community in providing for their own safety and security. In accordance with the Clery Act, the College must publish an Annual Security Report every year by October 1st that covers information from the previous year. The Trocaire College Annual Security Report is emailed to the College community.
The Annual Security Report contains information regarding campus security and personal safety including topics such as: crime prevention, fire safety, crime reporting policies, dating violence, domestic violence, sexual assault and stalking; the procedures the College will follow when one of these crimes is reported, disciplinary procedures and other matters of importance related to security and safety on campus. The Campus Security Report also contains information about crime statistics for the three previous calendar years concerning reported crimes that occurred on campus; in certain off-campus buildings or property owned or controlled by Trocaire College; and on any public property within, or immediately adjacent to and accessible from the campus.
