10 larcenies, assault and hate crimes were reported on campus this past week.
Michigan State University disclosed the incidents under the Jeanne Clery Campus Safety Act, which requires universities to list reported criminal offenses publicly. The State News filed Freedom of Information Act requests for police reports on notable incidents, and under state law, MSU has three weeks to respond.
Mandatory reports do not necessarily involve the police, as they can come from university employees such as staff, faculty and administrators. Campus Police Deputy Chief Chris Rozman clarified that, "In some instances, a police report and subsequent investigation may not occur unless the victim or survivor chooses to file a formal report with law enforcement, although the incident may appear on the Clery Crime and Fire Log with the title 'Mandatory Report'."
