2011 Annual Safety and Security Report (PDF)
Valley Forge Military College recognizes its responsibility to comply with state and federal law in regard to the reporting and dissemination of campus security information. According to Pennsylvania’s “Higher Education Security Information Act,” the College is required to compile information regarding certain crimes occurring on campus and to publish certain campus security policies and procedures. This state law also requires the College to report crime statistics to the Pennsylvania State Police and to make available to the campus community a statistical analysis of the reported crimes. In addition, a federal statute known as the “Jeanne Clery Disclosure of Campus Security Policy and Campus Crime Statistics Act,” requires the College to report certain information regarding campus crime to the United States Department of Education. Additional campus security policies and procedures and crime statistics must be provided to the campus community pursuant to the Clery Act.
All prospective students and employees must be advised that the crime statistics and a copy of the College’s security policies and procedures noted in this report are available. In addition, this information must be published and provided to all students and employees on an annual basis. Any questions regarding the information complied by the College pursuant to either statute should be addressed to the Commandant’s Office at 610-989-1256.
