Crime Awareness and Campus Security
The following statements provide information regarding compliance with the requirements under Title II Crimes Awareness and Campus Security Act also known as the Jeanne Clery Disclosure of Campus Security Act. This information is distributed through a direct link to all students and employees through the Annual Security Report. Paper copies are available upon request of the dean of student development.
The report includes statistics for the previous three years concerning reported crimes that occurred on the EICC campuses; in certain off campus buildings or property; or public property immediately adjacent to and accessible from the campuses. The report also includes information about institutional policies concerning campus security. The report is prepared in cooperation with local law enforcement agencies. Campus crime statistics include those reported to the dean of student development and local law enforcement agencies. Law Enforcement agencies are contacted on an annual basis to request information about applicable reported crimes that occurred on campus and adjacent public property. The dean of student development is the designated college official for the collection of crime report information and allegations of Clery Act crimes.
- Crime Reporting: EICC takes every possible precaution for crime prevention. If a crime
should occur on one of the EICC locations, the victim or persons having knowledge
of the crime should immediately contact the local law enforcement at 9-911. Additionally,
the crime should be reported to the Dean of Student Development, Facilities Manager
or through Ancillary Services. With each report, an incident report must be completed
and filed. The District Administrative Procedures Manual contains the policies of
the District relative to campus security procedures and the reporting of incidents.
This manual is available at each college and can be accessed from the District Intranet
site.
- Security Systems: Security systems are in place at facilities owned or controlled
by the college. The manager of buildings and grounds is responsible for ensuring that
security systems are in place which protect and control access to the buildings.
- Security Personnel: Clinton Community College and Muscatine Community College does
not employ security personnel. Law enforcement and private security firms are relied
upon to provide quick response to security needs. In all matters where it is deemed
appropriate, a policy report using the appropriate reporting form will be filed through
the college’s Ancillary Services Office or Dean of Student Development Office. Effective
July 1, 2019, Scott Community College has employed a security official to provide
oversight of the campus.
- Programming: Annually, the college provides programming that includes student orientation,
and staff development activities designed to make people aware of their own security
and the security of others. In the best interest of the entire college community,
EICC students and staff are collectively encouraged to use good judgment in their
actions on or around the college campus. The individual well-being of each person
should be the overriding goal of all people associated with the community college
district. The EICC will remain diligent in its efforts to promote a safe and secure
campus environment. Safety and Security programs offered include, but are not limited
to: self-defense, home security, prevention of sexual assault and domestic violence
and substance abuse. EICC provides electronic training modules through SafeColleges
training for students and staff.
- Drug and Alcohol Policy: EICC prohibits the unlawful possession, use or distribution
of controlled substances by students and employees on property owned or leased by
EICC or in conjunction with EICC sponsored activities. Violations of this policy will
result in the initiation of disciplinary action. Alcoholic beverages may be allowed
at certain college events with prior administrative approval. The guidelines for the
utilization of alcoholic beverages at student events are available from the designated
college activities coordinator. Violations of the District policies regarding alcoholic
beverages will result in disciplinary action. Programming is provided for students
through SafeColleges training modules.
- Sexual Offense Reporting: As with other incident reporting, contact should be made
with the Dean of student Development or Ancillary Service Office. The local police
department has law enforcement authority for campus crimes. After reporting occurrences
to the site administrator, any criminal occurrences should also be reported to the
local police. Students have the option to contact proper law enforcement authorities,
and the college will assist, if requested.
- Sex Offender Registration: Iowa law requires a person who has been convicted of a
sex offense anywhere to register with the sheriff in the county in which they reside.
Information about sex offenders is maintained by the Iowa Department of Public Safety
and can be accessed at www.iowasexoffender.com.
- Emergency Notification: In an effort to keep students and employees safe and informed
in emergency situations, EICC provides EICCAlert as a free service. EICCAlert sends
text and voice messages and email notification about significant emergency or dangerous
situations involving an immediate threat to the health or safety of students or employees.
The service also allows users to receive messages when the college is closed due to
weather. Students and staff may sign up for EICCAlert on EICConnect.
- Timely warnings: In the event that a situation arises, either on or off campus that,
in the judgment of the campus Administrative Team, constitutes an ongoing or continuing
threat, a campus wide timely warning will be issued. The warning will be posted on
monitor systems throughout the campus(es) and e-mail messages will be sent. Messages
will also be sent using the EICCAlert system that provides text messages.
- Access and Security to Campus Facilities: Each building in EICC maintains hours of operation. Buildings may have individual hours which may vary at different times of the year. Buildings will be secured according to the scheduled developed by the campus.
