The number of reported
larcenies at USC dropped almost
6 percent this past year from
1985, while the USC crime rate as
a whole dropped I percent
from 1 S>Sf> to 1986.
According to USC" law enforce
ment officials, there were 613
larcenies reported in 1985 com
pared to 577 in 1986.
Incidents of assault, breaking
and entering, robbery and rape
all rose in 1986. Motor vehiele
theft decreased, and there were
no murders. USC's crime rate has
decreased 32.4 percent since
1980.
Rape and assault arc a small
part of the crime, but larceny is
the most frequent crime on campus,
said Carl Stokes, system vice
president for law enforcement
and safety.
Stokes said many of the crimes
at USC are hard to investigate
since students often leave their
rooms unlocked. A thief can
simply walk in and take anything,

The key to conuolting campus
crime is community involvement.
Stokes said.
The law enforcement and safety
office works with campus
organizations to help deter campus
crime. One program is Project
II), which is designed to
allow on-campus residents to
identify valuables by having them
engraved for identification.
Stokes said his office is always
working to stop crime on cam
pus, but the final answer lies in
the community taking on the
task.
"The police can show the people
what to do to prevent crime,
but in the end the people have to
do it for themselves," he said.
