<p>The Vanderbilt website is an excellent source of info on crime/arrests on campus. The Daily Crime Report <a href=“http://sitemason.vanderbilt.edu/files/biAOJ2/Daily%20Crime%20Report.pdf[/url]”>http://sitemason.vanderbilt.edu/files/biAOJ2/Daily%20Crime%20Report.pdf</a> provides a listing of all arrests, going back to September of this year. Interesting reading - primarily alcohol violations and minor property crimes.</p>
<p>My d, a 2009 alum, was the victim of a crime while she was a student - but not on campus. Her purse was stolen when she was entering a restaurant with a group of friends in an area of town where they’d always previously felt secure. I don’t think that means that Nashville is particularly crime-ridden - just that it’s not possible to be safe from certain crimes, no matter where you are.</p>
<p>One thing to remember is that Vandy’s medical center is right on campus. The areas surrounding hospitals are often likely places for property crimes, and worse.</p>
