It is the policy of Appalachian State University to publish by October 1st of each school year an annual security report that informs current students and employees of its safety and security policies, procedures and practices. Our annual report will also disclose statistics from the previous three years concerning reported crimes that occurred on campus, in certain off-campus buildings or property either owned or controlled by the University and owned or controlled by student organizations recognized by the University, and on public property within or immediately adjacent to and accessible from the campus.
