  1. JEANNE CLERY CAMPUS SECURITY POLICY & CRIME STATISTICS DISCLOSURE ACT What you need to know about the law and your responsibilities as a Campus Security Authority (CSA)

  2. CLERY ACT? WHAT’S THAT? • Jeanne Clery was raped and murdered in her dorm room at Lehigh University in 1986. Her killer was another student. Her parents believed she would have been more cautious if she had known about other violent crimes at Lehigh. • Congress agreed: the Clery Act, first enacted in 1990 and amended in 1998, requires higher education institutions to report crime statistics to current & prospective students & employees. • The purpose of the Clery Act is to ensure that students and others are informed about campus crimes so they can make informed decisions.

  3. BUT WHAT DOES IT HAVE TO DO WITH ME? • The Clery Act requires the University of Nevada, Reno to gather crime information and provide that data to our campus. Our campus is defined as the main campus, Cooperative Extension, fraternity or sorority houses, student housing and any building or property owned or controlled by the university, is frequented by students, relates to the university’s educational purposes and supports institutional purposes (such as a food or other retail vendor).

  4. CLERY STATISTICS INFORMATION • You can find this crime data on the university at http://www.unr.edu/Documents/administration-finance/Police/2012-Annual-Report.pdf

  5. WHERE YOU COME IN • Some crimes and incidents, especially sexual assaults, are not always reported to law enforcement – that’s where you come in. • A “Campus Security Authority” (CSA) is defined as:

  6. WHO ARE THE UNIVERSITY’S CAMPUS SECURITY AUTHORITIES? • Any member of the University of Nevada, Reno Police Services • Anyone who has responsibility for security other than Police Services. This includes individuals who monitor access into a campus facility, event security, ASUN Escort Services, and...

  7. WHO ARE THE UNIVERSITY’S CAMPUS SECURITY AUTHORITIES? • ANY AND ALL OTHER officials, administrators, administrative and academic faculty, classified employees, post doctoral scholars, graduate assistants, medical residents and volunteers involved in university programs or activities.

  8. WHO ARE THE UNIVERSITY’S CAMPUS SECURITY AUTHORITIES? • This includes Deans, Directors, Vice Presidents, Athletic Directors, coaches, faculty advisors to student groups, faculty members, student employees, residential life staff, independent contractors such as Sodexo employees, janitorial staff, part-time employees, and adjunct faculty. • You are a campus security authority. If in doubt, forward the information to University Police Services.

  9. WHO IS NOT OBLIGATED TO REPORT CRIMES There are two types of individuals who, although they have significant responsibility for student and campus activities, are NOT campus security authorities under Clery and therefore exempt from this reporting requirement.

  10. WHO IS NOT OBLIGATED TO REPORT CRIMES • A person who is associated with a religious order or denomination, is recognized by that religious order or denomination as someone who provides confidential counseling, and is functioning within the scope of that recognition as a pastoral counselor.

  11. WHO IS NOT OBLIGATED TO REPORT CRIMES 2. A person whose official responsibilities include providing mental health counseling to members of the institution’s community and who is functioning within the scope of his or her license or certification. This definition also applies to professional counselors who are not university employees, but are under contract to provide counseling.

  12. AS A CSA, WHAT MUST I REPORT? • Any crime that you have knowledge of and any information provided to you or reported to you as a crime must be forwarded to Police Services.

  13. JUST GET THE FACTS • Police Services will determine if a crime has occurred: Your job is to get the information the person wants to tell you. • You are not a detective • You don’t have to prove what happened or who was at fault • You aren’t supposed to find the perpetrator

  14. JUST GET THE FACTS • Let the person know about options for reporting to police: • Tell the person that he/she can report anonymously to university police • A person who talks to you may not want to talk to police-and doesn’t have to – but tell the person you must forward the information.

  15. OFFER HELP Provide the person with information on: • Reporting to Police Services • 775-784-4013 Monday – Friday 8:00 AM-5:00 PM • 775-334-COPS (2677) – after hours • On-line at http://www.unr.edu/police • Campus programs for assisting victims of sexual and other assault • Crisis Call Center 775-784-8090 • Victims of Crime Treatment Center 775-682-8680 • Procedures for seeking medical help • If an emergency 9-1-1 • Student Health Center

  16. … When in doubt, forward the information to university police.
