| Boilerpipe Text | Individuals who are victims of, or witnesses to a crime, or otherwise become aware of a crime, are strongly encouraged to timely report that crime to the police.  In fact, under Ohio law, persons who have knowledge of a felony (a victim of or witness to the crime) are required to report the crime to the police and failure to report a crime may itself be a crime.  (Ohio Revised Code §2921.22) Reporting Crime Crimes occurring on campus (Akron main campus, Medina campus or Wayne College campus) should be reported to UAPD by calling 9-1-1 or 330-972-2911 . Crimes occurring off campus in Akron should be reported to the City of Akron Police Department by calling 9-1-1 (emergency) or 330-375-2181 (non-emergency). Crimes occurring off-campus at the Wayne College campus should be reported to the City of Orrville Police Department at 330-684-5025 or dial 9-1-1. Crimes  occurring  off-campus  at  the  Medina campus  should  be  reported  to Medina  County Sheriff's office at 330-336-6650 or dial 9-1-1 . Crimes occurring off-campus at the Brunswick Midpoint Campus Center should be reported to the City of Brunswick Police Department at 330-225-9111 or dial 9-1-1 . Crimes  occurring  off-campus  at  the  Lakewood  location  should  be  reported  to  the City of Lakewood Police Department at 216-521-6773 or dial 9-1-1 . Crimes occurring off-campus at the Millersburg location should be reported to the Village of Millersburg at 330-674-5931 or dial 9-1-1 . If a crime occurs at a location other than those listed above, including Non-campus locations, the crime should be reported to the applicable local law enforcement. In addition to the police, information on criminal behavior may be reported to: Offices within the Division of Student Affairs, including Student Conduct and Community Standards; Department of Athletics, Offices of the Athletic Director and athletic coaches; Residence Life and Housing staff; Advisers to recognized student organizations; and Title IX Coordinator and Deputy Coordinators. The University strongly encourages all victims of, or witnesses to crime to report all criminal activity to police in order to insure prompt evaluation for timely warning or emergency notification and for inclusion in the statistics for the annual crime report. The University encourages the reporting of criminal activity both when the victim elects to report and also when the victim is unable to do so. Confidentiality and Crime Reporting The University does not have procedures for the voluntary confidential reporting of crime statistics and violations of law are referred to the appropriate law enforcement jurisdiction. However, UAPD offers the opportunity for individuals to report crime anonymously . Crimes reported on-campus to counselors at the University's Counseling Center or to a physician or nurse at Student Health Services are confidential to the extent allowed by law. Some off-campus reports also may be confidential to the extent allowed by law (e.g. to: clergy; physicians; Portage Path Behavioral Health counselors; and Rape Crisis Center counselors). Counselors and physicians are encouraged to report crimes reported to them, consistent with their professional ethics and the limitations imposed by applicable confidentiality laws, to ensure inclusion in the annual collection and disclosure of crime statistics. However, crimes reported to counselors and physicians that are learned within the scope of their professional licensesmay not be included in the annual crime statistics report. UAPD makes every effort, within the limitations of Ohio law, to protect the identity of sexual assault victims. If a sexual assault victim wishes to remain anonymous or not to file a police report, UAPD honors their request while still offering them referrals to medical care and/or counseling, as well as making appropriate referrals to the Title IX Coordinator(s) and SCCS. Because of the Ohio public records laws and the law requiring individuals having knowledge of a felony to report such crime, The University of Akron is not able to promise confidentiality to persons reporting crimes to non-privileged recipients, including individuals or offices (e.g. Residence Life and Housing staff; Student Affairs staff; title IX Coordinators, etc.) that supply crime statistics for this annual report. Preparing annual reports The University of Akron's Annual Security Report (“ASR”) is the result of the efforts of many people on campus. Each year the offices and individuals listed in this section provide information for inclusion in the annual report. No formal police report is required for a crime to be included in the statistics . Every effort is taken to ensure that all persons required to report do so, and that statistics are as accurate and complete as possible. Information included in the annual report is reviewed for accuracy, completeness and readability. If you have any questions or concerns about any of the statistics and information in this report, please contact UAPD at 330-972-2911. Crimes that are reported to the following individuals or offices are included in the annual crime statistics report. Campus offices are strongly encouraged to report criminal incidents to UAPD contemporaneous with occurrence to ensure inclusion, and avoid duplication of statistics in the ASR.
