What actually gets reported at Caribbean University-Ponce
Across 3 reporting years, on-campus incidents were recorded in 2 Clery Act categories here: Robbery and Aggravated Assault. Robbery accounts for most of them.
The remaining 9 categories were reported with no on-campus incidents, among them Arson, Burglary, Fondling and Incest. Under the Clery Act that zero is an affirmative report that nothing in the category occurred, not an absence of data, which is why the table below lists those rows rather than dropping them.
Counts describe incidents reported under the Clery Act for the on-campus geography. Reporting practice varies between institutions, so counts are not a direct measure of relative safety.
