The locations associated with UNCW which are required to be included in the Campus Crime and Security Report fall within one of three categories of properties: On-Campus Property, Non-Campus Property, or Public Property. The definitions for these categories are adopted from the 2016 edition of The Handbook for Campus Safety and Crime Reporting published by the U.S. Department of Education and are as follows:
On-Campus Property
On-Campus Property includes “[a]ny building or property owned or controlled by an institution within the same reasonably contiguous geographic area and used by the institution in direct support of, or in a manner related to, the institution’s educational purposes, including residence halls; and [a]ny building or property that is within or reasonably contiguous to the area identified in [part] (1) of this definition that is owned by the institution but controlled by another person, is frequently used by students, and supports institutional purposes.”
Examples of properties that may fall within this category include, but are not limited to, Alderman Hall, the Amphitheater, Bear Hall, Fisher University Union, and Friday Annex.
On-Campus Property also includes a subset for Residential Facilities. All residence halls on campus fall into this category.
Non-Campus Property
Non-Campus Property includes “[a]ny building or property owned or controlled by a student organization that is officially recognized by the institution; or any building or property that is owned or controlled by an institution that is used in direct support of, or in relation to, the institution’s educational purposes, is frequently used by students, and is not within the same reasonably contiguous geographic area of the institution.”
Examples of properties that may fall within this category include, but are not limited to, 6150 Rock Creek Road, Town Creek, NC (Nature Preserve) and research vessels owned by UNCW when carrying students participating in university programs.
Public Property
Public Property includes “[a]ll public property, including thoroughfares, streets, sidewalks, and parking facilities, that is within the campus, or immediately adjacent to and accessible from the campus.” Examples of properties that may fall within this category include, but are not limited to, the 600 block of South College Road and the Cross City Trail.
