If you see a crime committed, suspicious activity, or have information about an incident, contact Campus Security. C. Campus Security Authorities and Mandatory Reporters Federal and state laws dictate that certain staff members are obligated to report crimes to the Deans, law enforcement, or social services. These staff members include Counselors, Unit Leaders, Resident Assistants, Resident Directors, Deans, HR staff, Counseling and Camp Crew Coordinators, Camp Directors, and Childcare Staff. D. Confidential Reporting All victims or witnesses of a crime are encouraged to report it immediately to the Deans. They also have the option of reporting it to local enforcement, or a counselor, Unit Leader, Resident Assistant, Resident Director or Dean. These individuals are required to report certain crimes (crimes against minors or crimes that pose a threat to others), but the victim may choose not to share this information with the Deans or with law enforcement. In that case, the victim/ witness will only report to the Deans that a crime occurred and the nature of the crime for statistical purposes. E. Incident Reporting A log is maintained of any reported on-campus crimes. Additionally, local law enforcement agencies compile statistics for crimes that occurred on the property. F. Emergency Alerts In the event of an emergency, you will receive an alert via text message and email. Based on your location, you may also receive alerts over the phones, two-way radios, public address systems, or other means. Staff, students, volunteers, guests, and camp youth leaders are enrolled in the alert system automatically. If your phone number and email address change, contact your camp office or the Bible Institute Student Life Department to update this information. G. Access Control Our Bible Institute campus is generally open during the day, and visitors are requested to sign in at the Guest Services Desk. Access to youth camp is limited to staff, registered guests, and approved vendors. Camp visitors
