2. Her parents believe she would have been more cautious if she had known about other violent crimes at Lehigh. Jeanne Clery was raped and murdered in her dorm room at Lehigh University in 1986. Her parents believe she would have been more cautious if she had known about other violent crimes at Lehigh. The law enacted in her memory is intended to ensure that students and other campus community members are informed about campus crime so they can make informed decisions. The Clery Act requires that universities distribute crime statistics to current students and all campus employees. Crime statistics must be made available to all perspective students and staff upon request. What is the Clery Act? Why do we have it?

3. What does Clery require?? Institutions must collect, classify and count crime reports and crime statistics. Issue campus alerts. To provide the campus community with information necessary to make informed decisions about their health and safety: Issue a timely warning for any Clery Act crime that represents an ongoing threat to the safety of students or employees; (may give timely warning to non-Clery crimes) Issue an emergency notification upon the confirmation of a significant emergency or dangerous situation involving an immediate threat to the health or safety of students or employees occurring on the campus.

4. Publish an annual security report (by Oct 1 of each year) containing safety and security-related policy statements and crime statistics and distribute it (or advise where to locate it electronically) to all current students and employees. Schools also must inform prospective students and employees about the availability of the report. Create, maintain and make available a daily crime log. Have established policies and procedures to ensure safety. Submit crime statistics to the Department of Education

5. Although every institution wants its campus community to report criminal incidents to law enforcement, we know that this doesn’t always happen. Even at institutions with a police department on campus, a student who is the victim of a crime may be more inclined to report it to someone other than the campus police. For this reason, the Clery Act requires all institutions to collect crime reports from a variety of individuals and organizations that Clery considers to be "campus security authorities”. Data is collected from a wide variety of “Campus Security Authorities” to provide the most accurate crime statistics possible." If a campus security authority receives the crime information and believes it was provided in good faith, he or she should document it as a crime report and forward it to the JMU Police Department.

6. The Clery Act requires the institution to identify individuals and organizations that meet the definition of a campus security authority. The Clery Act requires all institutions to collect crime reports from campus security authorities. Campus Security Authorities

7. The law defines four categories of Campus Security Authority: University Police Non-police security staff responsible for monitoring university property, monitoring events, and providing escorts to include contract security and students. People/offices designed under our policy as those to whom crimes should be reported. These include the Office of Judicial Affairs, the Dean of Students and the Ombudsperson. “Officials with significant responsibility for students and campus activities”. “Official” is defined as any person who has the authority and duty to take action and respond to particular issues on behalf of the institution. What makes you a Campus Security Authority (CSA)?

8. Define by function, not title Because official responsibilities and job titles vary significantly on campuses, a list of specific titles is not provided in the regulations. To determine specifically which individuals or organizations are campus security authorities for your institution, consider the function of that individual or office Individuals with “Significant responsibility for Student and Campus Activities”

9. Individuals may be designated as Campus Security Authorities based on whether they perform the following functions: 1.Their official job responsibilities involve significant interaction with students and/or campus activities; 2.They serve as informal or unofficial mentors to students; 3.They serve as a member in an office or of a committee to whom students are instructed and informed to report or discuss crimes, allegations of crimes, and other troubling situations, and/or 4.They have oversight for disciplinary procedures. The “function” of the employee on campus

12. Faculty members who are not advisors of student groups, i.e. no responsibility for student or campus activities beyond the classroom. Support Staff Clerical Secretaries Receptionists Facilities Staff Plumbers Electricians Food Service Workers Cashiers Cooks Who is NOT a Campus Security Authority?

13. You have significant responsibility for Student and Campus Activities-BUT... YOU DO NOT HAVE TO REPORT IF You are a licensed mental health counselor or a pastoral counselor (employed by a religious organization to provide confidential counseling) AND You are working within the scope of your license or religious assignment. Those who are exempt by law also include: Student Health Center Clinicians who only provide care to individual students. Who is NOT a Campus Security Authority?

14. JMU encourages professional and pastoral counselors, although not required to report crimes, to tell victims about the Confidential Reporting Process. The counselor must make a judgment call: is it appropriate to discuss crime reporting in this particular situation JMU encourages professional and pastoral counselors, although not required to report crimes, to tell victims about the Confidential Reporting Process.

15. “ To report allegations made in good faith to the reporting structure established by the institution.” In “good faith” means there is a reasonable basis for believing that the information is not simply rumor or hearsay. That is, there is little or no reason to doubt the validity of the information. Campus Security Authority’s primary responsibility is…

16. If a campus security authority receives the crime information and believes it was provided in good faith, he or she should document it as a crime report. What you must disclose, therefore, are statistics from reports of alleged criminal incidents. It is not necessary for the crime to have been investigated by the police or campus security authority, nor must a finding of guilt or responsibility be made to disclose the statistic.
