*Please Note: The crime rate is based on the actual number of full-time equivalent (FTE) students and employees, which is calculated according to a state-mandated formula. The index in the table above is based on incidents reported per 100,000 FTEs.

  • Under Uniform Crime Report (UCR) Part I Crimes guidelines, the crime of Rape includes Rape, Attempted Rape, and Sexual-Assault.
  • Under UCR Part II Crimes guidelines, Assaults–Non-aggravated include simple assaults as well as harassment incidents involving a threat to assault.
  • Under UCR Part II Crimes guidelines, Sex Offenses (excluding Prostitution and Rape) include Indecent Assault and Indecent Exposure.
  • All Other Offenses (except traffic) include, but are not limited to, trespass and violation of city ordinances

Chapter 3 of the Pennsylvania Uniform Crime Reporting Act requires the release of crime statistics and crime rates to students and employees, and it requires that those statistics be available to applicants and new employees upon request. The crime rate is determined by a formula specified by the Uniform Crime Reporting Act and is calculated by dividing the number of reported crimes by the number of full-time equivalent (FTE) students and employees, then multiplying that number by 100,000.
