Records

The Records Unit serves as archivist for all incident/accident reports filed within the jurisdiction of the College of Charleston Department of Public Safety. A request for an incident/accident report should be made to the Records Coordinator located at the Department of Public Safety Headquarters (89 St. Philip Street). Requests must be made in writing and are accepted by email only at this address. Generally, processing of reports, once a request has been submitted, takes approximately three business days.

In accordance with Federal law, a daily log, which is a listing of all crimes reported to Campus Police, is available for public viewing. An update of the log is completed within two business days of the filing of an initial report except:

  • where disclosure of such information is prohibited by law
  • such disclosure would jeopardize the confidentiality of the victim
  • release of such information would jeopardize any component of an ongoing criminal investigation
