Policy Statement:

Quincy College is committed to ensuring the safety and security of its community members. This policy outlines the procedures for reporting criminal offenses and emergencies, as well as the process for voluntary confidential reporting.

Emergency Reporting:

For all EMERGENCIES, including fire, medical emergencies, and emergencies of a criminal nature, dial 911 immediately from the nearest available telephone. Provide the operator with specific details about the incident, including the exact location.

Additionally, reports can be made to the Public Safety department office located in room 333, or by phone at 857-225-1934.

Reporting Criminal Offenses:

Criminal offenses should be reported to the following individuals or offices:

  • Director of Public Safety, Michael Ryan, President’s Place, 617-984-1798
  • Public Safety Office – Quincy, President’s Place, 857-225-1934
  • Public Safety Office – Plymouth, Cordage Park, 617-483-3723

For all off-campus crimes, reports should be made directly to local police authorities.

For non-emergencies, contact Public Safety at 857-225-1934. The Public Safety department maintains a log of all reportable incidents, including emergencies and non-emergencies, which is available upon request.

Voluntary Confidential Reporting:

If you are the victim of a crime and prefer not to pursue action within the College or the criminal justice system, you may consider making a confidential report. With your permission, Public Safety can file a report detailing the incident without revealing your identity. This allows the College to maintain accurate records of incidents, identify patterns of crime, and alert the campus community to potential dangers. Reports filed in this manner will be included in the annual crime statistics for the institution.

Limited Voluntary Confidential Reporting:

Quincy College does not have a specific written policy for Limited Voluntary Confidential Reporting. Procedures for such reporting are managed by the police department.
