Absolutely no student, personnel or other confidential information was contained on the computer stolen during the weekend theft at TVCC-Palestine.
We here at Trinity Valley Community College are saddened and angered by the events of this weekend’s break-in at TVCC-Palestine.
Information reported by area media outlets regarding this incident is in error. We want to assure our students that absolutely no student, personnel or other confidential information was contained on the computer stolen during the weekend theft. The terminal which was taken was wired only to the security surveillance system and was used specifically for surveillance video. TVCC takes all possible precautions to maintain the security and confidentiality of personal data.
In the aftermath of this event, we are dedicated to recovering the stolen property. The college is working diligently with the Anderson County Sheriff’s Office to apprehend those who are responsible for this incident. We are asking anyone who may have information on the theft to please contact the sheriff’s department.
Students should watch our website at www.tvcc.edu for more information as it develops.
