Jeanne Clery Campus Safety Act
The Jeanne Clery Campus Safety Act (Clery Act) is a federal consumer protection law that requires colleges and universities receiving federal funding to publicly disclose specific information related to campus safety. This includes institutional policies, procedures, prevention programs, and crime statistics. The Clery Act aims to ensure that current and prospective students, employees, and community members have access to important safety information, empowering them to make informed decisions about their wellbeing.
The Clery Act requires that colleges and universities:
- Collect, classify, and count Clery reportable crimes from Campus Security Authorities (CSAs) and law enforcement agencies, including the University Police Department (UPD)
- Publish a Daily Crime and Fire Log
- Identify and maintain an accurate list of Clery geography
- Issue campus safety alerts (Emergency Notifications and Timely Warnings)
- Publish an Annual Security Report and Annual Fire Safety Report
- Submit aggregate crime statistics to the Department of Education
Clery compliance is a university-wide effort led by Clery Director, Jennifer Barbadillo. Questions and concerns should be directed to clery@cpp.edu.
