College Safety and Cleary Act Reporting

College safety is founded on a philosophy that advocates a proactive rather than a reactive approach to the safety and security of the college's students, employees and facilities.

Person County Sheriff Deputies have a presence on the Person County campus and patrol parking areas. Each campus is staffed with PCC Safety Officials that are able to assist students and can contact local authorities when needed. The College Safety Office regularly informs faculty and staff of issues pertaining to safety and security at all college facilities.

Students and faculty/staff are encouraged to report to Sheriff Deputies or College Safety Officials any suspicious activity. Policies regarding use or sale of alcohol, the sale or use of drugs, facility usage, sexual harassment, and response to assault can be found in the college catalog and student handbook, in addition to other areas of the college's website.
