Clery Reports
The Colorado Mesa University Annual Campus Security Report contains valuable information for all of the university's community members. The report has summaries of the university's policies on timely warnings, alcohol and drug use, disciplinary processes and other items. Also included in the report is advice for victims of crimes and information on crime prevention programs, as well as instructions on how to obtain information on registered sex offenders in the community. Statistics regarding the number of crimes occurring on and near campus and a campus map are included at the end of the report.
The Jeanne Clery Act, originally the "Crime Awareness and Campus Security Act of 1990", is a federal law that requires colleges and universities to annually disclose information about crime on and around their campuses. The website clerycenter.org is a great resource for students, their parents and the faculty and staff to learn more about this law. The site also links to a searchable database to research the number of crimes on individual college campuses.
