LAKE COUNTY, Calif. — The campuses of Woodland Community College in Woodland, Lake County and Colusa County provide safe learning environments for students, according to the most recent crime statistics report provided by the Yuba Community College District Police Department in compliance with the federal Jeanne Clery Act.
In 2020 only one on-campus offense was reported, a burglary on the Lake County campus. One additional offense was reported off-campus on adjacent public property of the Woodland campus.
The 2020 statistics were lower than the 2019 report that indicated a total of four on-campus offenses and two off-campus offenses, officials said.
Looking back over the past eight Clery Act filings, the campuses of Woodland Community College have historically provided a safe environment for students, averaging just over one
reportable offense per year on both the Woodland and Lake County campuses since 2013, and only one single offense on the Colusa County campus during that time period.
“It is reassuring to know that we are providing safe campus environments. The safety and welfare of students, faculty and staff is a top priority for the college, and while the 2020 statistics were impacted by COVID, looking back at the two previous years we have had few crime reports, almost exclusively nonviolent in nature,” said Woodland Community College President Art Pimentel.
The Jeanne Clery Disclosure of Campus Security Policy and Campus Crime Statistics Act or Clery Act, was signed into law in 1990.
It is a federal statute requiring colleges and universities to maintain and disclose Campus Crime Statistics along with disclosure of campus safety policies and timely warning requirements.
Annually, the Yuba Community College District Police Department gathers statistics on reportable crimes and reports the statistics to the Department of Education, the FBI and to the public.
The Jeanne Clery Act requires statistics to be reported from a geographic area that includes the campus as well as adjacent public property, and also requires reports of student disciplinary referrals in addition to arrests for drug, alcohol and weapon offenses.

Crime statistics and campus safety information is compiled based upon crime reports received by the Yuba Community College District Police Department, from crime statistics received from outside agencies and from incident reports received from other campus security authorities.
