Clery Reporting Requirements
In 1990, Congress passed the Campus Awareness and Campus Security Act. This legislation was followed by the Jeanne Clery Disclosure of Campus Security Policy and Campus Crime Statistics Act in 1998.
Regulations associated with these acts require institutions such as 亚洲情色 to report specific information about certain on-campus crimes that have been reported to local police agencies or to any official of the institution with significant responsibility for student and campus activities (Campus Security Authority).
The law defines 鈥淐ampus Security Authority鈥 as: 鈥淎n official of an institution who has significant responsibility for student and campus activities, including, but not limited to, student housing, student discipline, and campus judicial proceedings.鈥 An example would be a dean of students who oversees student housing, a student center, or student extra-curricular activities and has significant responsibility for student and campus activities. Similarly, a director of athletics, team coach, and faculty advisor to a student group also has significant responsibility for student and campus activities. A single teaching faculty member is unlikely to have significant responsibility for student and campus activities, except when serving as an advisor to a student group. Clerical staff, as well, is unlikely to have significant responsibility for student and campus activities.
The following University employees and students have a reporting obligation as a Campus Security Authority:
- The President
- All Members of President's Staff
- All Student Life Administrators*
- All Staff in Diversity, Equity & Inclusion/ Global Education
- Equal Opportunity and Title IX Coordinator/Civil Rights Investigators
- All Campus Police Officers and Dispatchers
- Contracted Event Security
- Athletic Director and All Coaches
- Fitness Center Monitors (inclusive of student employees)
- All Members of the Residence Hall Staff (inclusive of student employees)
- HUB Desk Managers (inclusive of student employees)
- Library Desk Workers (inclusive of student employees)
- All Faculty/Staff Advisors to Student Organizations
- All Faculty/Staff Advisors to Study/Travel Abroad
*Chaplain(s) and licensed professionals in Counseling and Psychological Services (CAPS) are designated as confidential resources and are exempt from this reporting obligation. Licensed professionals in the Health Center are also designated as a confidential resource, but are required to report statistics to Campus Police in aggregate form, while maintaining the anonymity of the victim.
The following criminal offenses must be reported with incident details and the names of those known or alleged to be involved: murder/non-negligent manslaughter, negligent manslaughter, sex offenses (forcible and non-forcible), robbery, aggravated assault, burglary, motor vehicle theft, arson, domestic violence, dating violence, stalking, liquor law violations, drug abuse violations and weapons: carrying, possessing etc. Note: Sex Offenses may be described in such a way as to protect victims' anonymity (e.g., "Jane or John Doe").
The Campus Police are also required to report statistics for bias-related (hate) crimes for the following offenses: murder/non-negligent manslaughter, sex offenses (forcible and non-forcible), robbery, aggravated assault, burglary, motor vehicle theft, arson, larceny-theft, domestic violence, dating violence, stalking, vandalism, intimidation, simple assault, and damage/destruction/vandalism of property.
