Hide All Show All
Anonymous Reporting
In certain instances, a crime victim may be reluctant to file a
report fearing the loss of their identification or confidentiality.
In such circumstances, crime victims are encouraged to consider
making an anonymous report to a member of the student services
office, or online. At minimum, crime
victims will receive valuable counseling and referral information.
Confidential reports are important because they provide valuable
information that will enhance the safety of the community-at-large
and they will at least provide a more accurate portrait of actual
campus crime. (Remember, help is available, all you need to do is
ask.)
Identification Card
Every member of the College is required to have a Central Penn ID card. To obtain your ID card, go to the safety and security department in Room 55 of Bollinger Hall. The public safety department will make ID cards for the first two weeks of each term. Continuing education students and students attending at locations other than the main campus will be provided with a contact person who will issue student ID cards. Replacement cost for a lost, damaged or stolen identification card will be $10.
Your ID card will serve for the entire time that you are at Central Penn. It will serve as a library card, a debit card for the Scoozi Café and primary identification as a member of the College. This card may also be used for admission to labs, facilities and any College activities. Many local businesses will also provide discounts to students with a valid ID card.
Lost and Found
Items found on campus should be turned in at the Public Safety Department in Room 55 of Bollinger Hall. All lost items may be claimed through the Safety and Security Department with a brief description of the lost items. Items may be discarded at the end of each academic term.
