As part of the crime preventions programs information on major incidents is forwarded to certain University Officials, the Office of Public Affairs, and the campus newspaper, the FOGHORN, on a weekly basis. When circumstances require immediate notification throughout the University community, Crime Prevention Bulletins are produced and circulated to residence halls and other buildings.
