One way to avoid being a victim is to be knowledgeable about the details of crimes on campus.

In this new quarterly feature, we’ll share the latest campus crime statistics from the Georgia Tech Police Department. Here are a few facts to be aware of regarding crimes that occurred in 2012:

  • 20 safety alert incidents occurred in the safety alert boundary area, which extends beyond campus. This number includes 16 off-campus incidents.
  • 15 of the incidents occurred at night.
  • 9 of the incidents involved current Georgia Tech students.
  • 19 safety alerts were issued. (One of the off-campus Atlanta Police Department incidents was discovered too late for timely notification, and the incident was no longer considered by the institution to represent a continuing threat.)
