Clery Act

CLERY ACT

The Jeanne Clery Act is a federal law that requires colleges and universities to disclose annual information about campus crime, as well as provide timely warnings when a crime has occurred that poses a serious or ongoing threat to the campus community. This law is named in memory of 19-year-old Jeanne Ann Clery, a Lehigh University freshman who was raped and murdered in her dorm room on April 5, 1986. Jeanne’s parents, Connie and Howard, learned that Lehigh University students had not been informed of the 38 violent crimes that occurred on the Lehigh campus in the three years before her murder. They eventually persuaded Congress to enact a law that would help mitigate future tragedies. The Clery Act is a consumer protection law that aims to provide transparency around campus crime policy and statistics. 

Each year, 麻豆社 files a report of campus crime statistics with the United States Department of Education. The Clery Reports contain three years of campus crime statistics and certain security policy statements, fire safety information, and information about where campus community members should go to report crimes. The report uses federally mandated definitions concerning the locations and types of crimes in order to allow for comparisons across campuses.
