Campus size vs reported safety rate

Among 37 GA 2-year peers in this comparison, Southern Regional Technical College is larger than 86% and safer-reporting than 11% - the larger, higher-reporting quadrant. Axes are within-sample percentiles so outliers share the same frame; a higher safety percentile means a lower Clery incidents-per-1,000 rate.

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 Southern Regional Technical College rose from 1 to 3 (+200%). The increase shows up in Fondling (0 to 3). Falling over the same period: Burglary (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 Southern Regional Technical College

Across 3 reporting years, on-campus incidents were recorded in 3 Clery Act categories here: Motor Vehicle Theft, Fondling and Burglary. Motor Vehicle Theft accounts for most of them.

The remaining 8 categories were reported with no on-campus incidents, among them Aggravated Assault, Arson, 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.

Georgia median

Six years after enrolling, the median former student who received federal aid reports $29,304 - about 36.0 times one year of the reported net price here. On that ratio the cost is recovered quickly. Only 33% 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.
