CAMPUS SECURITY POLICIES AND CLERY ACT COMPLIANCE

The federal Jeanne Clery Disclosure of Campus Security Policy and Campus Crime Statistics Act (Clery Act) requires all eligible institutions that participate in federal student aid programs under Title IV of the Higher Education Act of 1965 (Title IV) to prepare, publish, and distribute annual security reports disclosing specified campus crime statistics and campus security policies. In 2014, the Clery Act was amended by the Violence Against Women Reauthorization Act of 2013 (VAWA) to also require annual crime statistics reporting on incidents of dating violence, domestic violence, sexual assault, and stalking, and to include certain policies, procedures, and programs pertaining to these incidents in the annual security reports.

In compliance with the Clery Act, VAWA, and the U.S. Department of Education, California College of ASU prepares an Annual Security Report to keep prospective students, current students, parents, and employees well informed about campus security. The information contained in this report empowers students, faculty, staff, and visitors to take control of their personal well-being and assist them in ensuring the safety and security of the entire campus community.

The Annual Security Report informs the college community of the status of campus security, including crime statistics for the previous three years concerning reported crimes that occurred on campus, in certain non-campus buildings, on property owned or controlled by California College of ASU, and on public property within, or immediately adjacent to and accessible from, the California College of ASU campus. The report also includes institutional policies on campus safety and security, such as policies concerning alcohol and drug use, crime prevention and reporting, and information concerning student sexual misconduct and relationship violence awareness and prevention.
