Time: 13:55
Description: Information Only
Location: Front Lawn
Notes: A Community Safety Manager on patrol of the front lawn saw needles stuck into a tree. While evergreens are known for their needles, these ones required a SHARPS container. The CSM called 28 West for a SHARPS container and alerted the grounds crew and maintenance to be aware of exposed needles.

Time: 19:21

Date: 2023 08 09
Time: 21:48
Description: Cannabis Use or Possession
Location: Anna Mann
Notes: A CSO on patrol near Anna Mannn encountered the odor of cannabis. The CSO did a cursory patrol of the dorm block and identified the location of the odor. A student was present and forthright about smoking cannabis when asked. The remaining cannabis was confiscated and the CSO resumed their patrol after properly disposing of the cannabis.
Case #: 230266
Date: 2023 08 12
Time: 15:15
Description: Information Only
Location: Reed College Apartments
Notes: A CSO responded to a report of a vehicle break-in at the Reed College Apartments. The CSO met with a student who reported that they had found nothing missing from the vehicle, but the interior of their car had been “ransacked,” and the contents of their glove compartment had been strewn about inside the vehicle. The CSO recommended the student file a police report if they discovered that anything was indeed missing.
CS Survey Responses:
Every week Community Safety requests survey responses from those who've had interactions with a member of the Community Safety team. These responses are always collected anonymously with the option for the responder to leave contact information if they would like for a member of Community Safety management to contact them, and are used internally for departmental performance tracking. Community Safety has opted to publish these survey results for transparency and community accountability. *Names and pronouns mentioned in survey responses will be redacted to protect the privacy of individuals.
In addition to surveys sent directly to those who have interacted with Community Safety, the Reed community is always encouraged to independently complete the survey regarding Community Safety's performance.
You can take the survey here: CS Survey

| Medical Assist | Below expectations | I dislocated my patella in the mat room in the gym and community safety was called to assist with the situation. I was panicked and upset at the time but from what I can recall the officer never directly talked to me or asked me what I wanted, (redacted) only spoke with the other people in the room. I also remember hearing an ice pack being broken open but I was never given it. I would have expect a greater degree of communication between the officer and myself. |
