Crimes occur throughout society, and college campuses are not exempt. Sinclair prides itself for its safety record and is committed to continue providing a safe environment. Each individual must take responsibility to be aware of his or her own environment to reduce the chance of becoming a crime victim. While on campus be aware of personal safety along with the safety of personal belongings.

Students, faculty, staff and visitors are expected to conduct themselves as law-abiding members of the campus community. If an incident of a criminal nature occurs, it should be reported to Sinclair Police who will investigate the incident and initiate the required legal actions. Everyone is encouraged to promptly and accurately report any crime or incident that negatively affects the college by calling Sinclair Police at extension 2700 (from any campus phone), or off-campus (937) 512-2700, or by stopping by the Sinclair Police Office, room 7112 (first floor of Building 7).

The Sinclair Police Department maintains a continuous liaison with the Dayton Police Department especially when a serious crime occurs on adjacent streets or sidewalks to the campus. If an incident occurs, a Sinclair Police alert flyer will be sent to all student and employee e-mail accounts and posted on bulletin boards throughout campus as soon as possible. It is important for students, faculty and staff to not only stay aware of crimes occurring on campus but also to adjacent streets and sidewalks surrounding the campus.
