Campus Safety and Security
Savannah Technical College Police Department and its members take the issue of campus safety and security seriously. Safety is a shared responsibility that all members of our community must work together to achieve.
All policies described in the annual security report are applicable to all campus properties. A hard copy of the Annual Security Report may be obtained by contacting Savannah Technical College Police Department, located in room 2113 Goodman Hall, 5717 White Bluff Road, Savannah, GA 31405.

The “Jeanne Clery Disclosure of Campus Security Policy and Campus Crime Statistics Act” was enacted by the United States Congress and signed into law by President George Bush in 1990. The Campus Security Act requires colleges and universities to:
-
Publish an annual report every year by October 1 that contains the 3 previous years of campus crime statistics.
-
Disclose crime statistics for the campus, public areas immediately adjacent to or running through the campus, and certain non- campus facilities and remote classrooms.
-
Provide “Timely Warning notices of these crimes that have occurred and pose an ongoing threat to students and employees.”
-
Disclose in a public crime log “any crime that occurred on campus or within the patrol jurisdiction of the campus police or the campus security department and is reported to the campus police or security department.”
The Annual Campus Safety and Security Report is disseminated, by email, to all students, faculty, and staff by October 1 each year and is available for download on the website, and in paper form upon request. Requests should be directed to the Savannah Technical College Police Department. Daily crime logs are available in the Savannah Technical College Police Department during normal business hours.
