Campus Security
The Jeanne Clery Disclosure of Campus Security Policy and Campus Crime Statistics Act as amended by Congress in November 1999 requires that colleges and universities publish and distribute an annual security report. This report includes campus crime statistics for the previous three years, policy statements concerning drug use, crime prevention and procedures to be followed in sexual assault offenses. The Act also provides for timely notice to the campus of crimes considered threats to safety and to maintain a public log of all reported crimes. You may obtain a paper copy of the report at the Department of Public Safety office on your campus. To view the document click here.
