CAMPUS SAFETY AND SECURITY
Campus Safety and Security Policy
The Illinois Eastern Community Colleges Board of Trustees recognizes the importance of a college environment that is safe and free of crime. Programs of crime prevention, college security procedures, and drug and alcohol abuse have been implemented to promote a crime-free environment. Information regarding these programs is available from your college Student Services Office. The college environment includes all students, employees and other persons participating in IECC classes, programs, services and other activities and events.
Students and employees are encouraged to report all on-campus threats to security to the president or his/her designee, including murder, rape, robbery, aggravated assault, burglary, and motor vehicle theft. Similarly, students and employees are encouraged to report on-campus arrests for liquor law violations, drug law violations, and weapons possessions. Other activities that pose a threat to student and employee security should also be reported to the president or the president's designee, including possible criminal activity that might occur in classes being taught or events occurring at places other than immediate college property.
IECC custodial/maintenance personnel or other college personnel are responsible for the security, access, and maintenance of all college buildings and grounds and will be present on campus during all times that classes are in session. IECC administration monitors and evaluates campus safety on an ongoing basis.
The possession and/or use of firearms, ammunition, fireworks, dangerous materials, or combustible materials, except by law enforcement officials or used for approved course work, is strictly prohibited. Violators will be reported to local law enforcement agencies.
The possession, use, and sale of alcoholic beverages or illegal drugs by anyone while participating in IECC classes, programs, services and other activities and events is strictly prohibited. Violators will be reported to local law enforcement agencies.
IECC will monitor and cooperate with law enforcement agencies to apprise students and employees of arrests of students or employees that occur in the community. Upon request, IECC will provide appropriate disciplinary information to victims of violent crimes. Campus crime statistics will be made available to all students, employees, and the college community, as well as to student applicants and prospective employees in an annual report.
Drug-Free Schools and Communities Act
The IECC Board of Trustees recognizes the importance of a college environment that is free of substance abuse. The college environment includes students, employees, and other persons participating in District 529-sponsored classes, programs, services and other activities or events. Substance abuse is defined as unauthorized possession, sale, transfer, purchase or use of alcohol, unlawful narcotics, cannabis or any other controlled substance. Substance abuse within the college environment is prohibited. Students and employees involved in substance abuse within the college environment are subject to disciplinary action. Any illegal substance abuse instance will result in involvement of law enforcement officials.
Contractors to District 529 are expected to comply with the Drug-Free Workplace Act of 1988. See Drug-Free Workplace Policy (400.19) in the Policy Manual.

STUDENT RESPONSIBILITIES
The cooperation, involvement, and personal support of students in a campus safety program are crucial to the success of the program. Students must assume responsibility for their own personal safety and the security of their belongings to take simple, common sense precautions. The students' awareness of their environment and their surroundings is the best place to start.

- Valuables in your vehicle should be kept concealed or locked in the trunk.
- Lock your residence at night and when you are absent.
- Do not lend your keys to others.
- Park your vehicle in lighted areas at night.
Identity Theft
Identity theft is a widespread and growing national problem. Identity theft occurs when someone wrongly gets your personal information, such as you Social Security number or driver’s license number and uses that information to obtain credit cards, loans or merchandise and services in your name. In order to control reasonably foreseeable risks to students from identity theft, Illinois Eastern Community Colleges has an Identity Theft Prevention Program and policy. Identity theft information and steps that you can take which will help you lower your risk of becoming a victim of identity theft are available on IECC’s webpage in the Students Right to Know section. - April 2009
