Clery Act (Mandatory) Reporting

The Clery Act requires that universities distribute crime statistics to current students and all campus employees. As part of this requirement, universities have to identify individuals and organizations that meet the definition of a “campus security authority.” Academic Unit Heads are considered to be such authorities, as they have significant responsibility for student and campus activities. Every year, you will be asked to report any information about activities that fall under the scope of the Clery Act. For an overview of this reporting, see the following slide show on “Clery Act Compliance Training”: www.jmu.edu/publicsafety/clerycompliance/campus_security_authority.shtml
