Crime on the UM campus is extremely rare, but when incidents occur, they are tracked and reported to the United States Department of Education.
Criminal offenses reported in these crime statistics include offenses reported to the University of Montevallo Police Department, City of Montevallo Police Department, and University of Montevallo officials who have responsibilities for student residence halls and campus activities.
