Safety and Security released the College's 2008 Annual Security Report this week, revealing a sharp drop in liquor law arrests and violations and drug arrests in 2007. Only 122 cases of College-handled liquor law violation were reported, as compared to 226 cases in 2005 and 153 in 2006. "Since the possession-by-consumption law was passed 5 years ago, the campus has become more aware of the law, which has led to a decrease in violations," Harry Kinne, College proctor and director of Safety and Security, said. The law allows for the arrest of any person under age 21 with a blood alcohol content of .02 or higher. The number of forcible sexual offenses increased from 13 in 2006 to 19, although Kinne said the jump may be due to student victims' increased willingness to report the assault. The College releases the report each year in compliance with the Jeanne Clery Disclosure of Campus Security Policy and Campus Crime Statistics Act, which require colleges and universities to release a detailed report outlining their drug and alcohol policies, updated crime statistics and resources and information for the community.
