Campus Security Act
Overview
In November 1990, the Crime Awareness and Campus Security Act (Title II, Public Law 101-542) was signed into law. This law requires universities to produce and make available certain policy statements and statistics about campus crime. In November of 1999 this Act was renamed the Jeanne Clery Disclosure of Campus Crime Statistics Act or simply, The Clery Act. It is the policy of East Carolina University to publish by October 1st of each school year an annual security report that informs current students and employees of its safety and security policies, procedures and practices. Our annual report, SAFETY AND YOU (Acrobat Reader required), will also disclose statistics from the previous three years concerning reported crimes that occurred on campus, in certain off-campus buildings or property either owned or controlled by the University and owned or controlled by student organizations recognized by the University, and on public property within or immediately adjacent to and accessible from the campus.
Anonymous Crime Reporting Form
For compliance with the Campus Security Act, the Anonymous Crime Reporting Form is to be completed whenever any faculty or staff person with significant responsibility for student activities becomes aware of a crime that has taken place. The awareness can come from a direct report from a student, staff member, or a third party. It is important that this form be completed and filed with the Office of Victim Services.
Campus Security Authorities
The Jeanne Clery Act defines Campus Security Authorities (CSAs) as: individuals with campus security responsibility, individuals designated by the campus, officials with significant responsibility for student and campus activities, and the campus police department.
