What changed between 2023 and 2024

Reported on-campus incidents at Mississippi Delta Community College rose from 0 to 1. The increase shows up in Aggravated Assault (0 to 1).

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 Mississippi Delta Community College

Across 3 reporting years, the only Clery Act category with a recorded on-campus incident here is Aggravated Assault.

The remaining 10 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.
