Campus Security Act

The Campus Security Act, formally known as the Jeannie Clery Disclosure of Campus Security Policy and Campus Crime Statistics Act, requires colleges and universities in the United States to disclose information about campus crime and security policies. Institutions must report annual crime statistics, maintain a public crime log, and provide details on safety education programs. The purpose is to inform students and faculty about safety and crime prevention on campus, enabling them to make informed decisions about their safety while attending school. It aims to enhance transparency and accountability in campus safety practices.
