Sample of 12 campuses from the plot (sorted by enrollment). Source: U.S. Department of Education OPE Campus Safety Survey + IPEDS enrollment. Rate = on-campus Criminal Offenses and VAWA incidents per 1,000 students; lower is safer-reporting, not a personal-risk forecast.
What changed between 2023 and 2024
Reported on-campus incidents at City Colleges of Chicago-Harry S Truman College rose from 2 to 4 (+100%). The increase shows up in Motor Vehicle Theft (0 to 2) and Aggravated Assault (0 to 1). Falling over the same period: Robbery (1 to 0).
This describes reported incidents, not crime. Clery counts move with reporting policy, awareness campaigns and how a campus staffs its security authorities, so a rise can reflect better capture of reports and a fall can reflect worse capture. One year of movement at a single campus is not a trend.
What actually gets reported at City Colleges of Chicago-Harry S Truman College
Across 3 reporting years, on-campus incidents were recorded in 4 Clery Act categories here: Fondling, Motor Vehicle Theft, Aggravated Assault and Robbery.
The remaining 7 categories were reported with no on-campus incidents, among them Arson, Burglary, Incest and Murder / Non-Negligent Manslaughter. 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.

Cost context
Where City Colleges of Chicago-Harry S Truman College sits on price and outcomes
At $7,863, City Colleges of Chicago-Harry S Truman College's reported average net price is cheaper than 19% among 178 Illinois colleges with a reported figure. The state median is $15,405.
- $7,863
- average net price
- $15,405
- Illinois median
- 4.4×
- six-year earnings to median debt
- $4,127
- reported income-bracket spread
Net price moves with income here, but not sharply: $7,362 for families reporting under $30,000 against $11,489 above $110,000, a difference of $4,127. Aid narrows the gap without closing it, so the $7,863 average sits reasonably close to what most brackets report.
Median reported earnings six years after entry are $30,439, roughly 3.9 times a year of net price. That is a workable ratio, though it says nothing about how long the programme takes to finish. Only 32% complete within six years. Most students here do not finish, which is the single most important number on this page for anyone weighing the cost.
Average net price reflects grant and scholarship aid for aided students, not a personal offer. Earnings cover former students who received federal aid; neither measure predicts an individual's outcome.
