* CRIME PREVENTION

LCC Police Officers constantly patrol the campus to assure a high level of personal safety and physical security.  As a regular part of their patrol duties, they look for any safety problems such as defective lighting, inoperative doors or locks, broken sidewalks, steps or hand rails and any other condition which might detract from one’s personal well being.  All such conditions are reported to the Physical Plant Department for correction.

LCC Police Officers inform students and employees about the prevention and awareness of crime and parking regulations with brochures and upon request.

Brochures are available on campus with detailed information on:

• Rape
• Drugs
• Campus Safety
• Parking and Safety Regulations

You are the main ingredient in crime prevention. Your efforts will greatly add to or detract from our efforts to keep criminal activity at the lowest possible level around campus.  To that end, always keep in mind the following:

REPORT all crimes and/or suspicious activities to the LCC Police Department.

DO NOT leave books,  jewelry,  purses,  wallets,  backpacks or other valuables unattended.

DO NOT leave purses in desks or file cabinets unattended unless the cabinet or desk is

       locked.

KEEP doors of unoccupied facilities locked at all times.

ALWAYS walk in groups.

TAKE responsibility for your protection. 

Remember, by always protecting your property, you reduce the opportunity for a criminal to commit a crime.

Laredo Community College is a safe campus.  If an incident occurs in the campus vicinity which is considered threatening,  we will report it through e-mail,  bulletin boards on campus, www.laredo.edu website and other appropriate media.
