2. The Jeanne Clery Disclosure of Campus Security Policy and Campus Crime Statistics Act is the landmark federal law, originally known as the Campus Security Act, that requires colleges and universities across the United States to disclose information about crime on and around their campuses. Because the law is tied to participation in federal student financial aid programs it applies to most institutions of higher education both public and private. It is enforced by the U.S. Department of Education. The "Clery Act" is named in memory of 19 year old Lehigh University freshman Jeanne Ann Clery (who was raped and murdered while asleep in her residence hall room on April 5, 1986). Jeanne's parents, Connie and Howard, discovered that students hadn't been told about 38 violent crimes on the Lehigh campus in the three years before her murder. They joined with other campus crime victims and persuaded Congress to enact this law, which was originally known as the "Crime Awareness and Campus Security Act of 1990."

3. The law was amended in 1992 to add a requirement that schools afford the victims of campus sexual assault certain basic rights, and was amended again in 1998 to expand the reporting requirements. The 1998 amendments also formally named the law in memory of Jeanne Clery. The law was amended in 2000 to require schools to notify the campus community about where public "Megan's Law" information about registered sex offenders on campus could be obtained. In 2008 required an updated Emergency Response Plan and testing of that plan, Fire Safety information, and expanded Hate Crime reporting. In 2013 the law was changed adding the crimes of stalking, harassment, and domestic violence.

5. CAMPUS SECURITY AUTHORITY  The law defines four categories of Campus Security Authority:  University Police  Non-police security staff responsible for monitoring University property  People/offices designated under our policy as those to whom/which crimes should be reported  “Officials with significant responsibility for student and campus activities” – that’s you!!

6. (NON) TYPICAL  The last category of “Campus Security Authority” (or “CSA”) is defined broadly to ensure complete coverage and thorough reporting of crimes.  Over 200 U. of Wyoming staff and faculty are CSAs having “significant responsibility for student and campus activities” – including you. EXAMPLES:  Deans, student housing staff, athletic coaches, student activities coordinators, student judicial officers, and faculty advisors to registered student organizations.  Defined by function, not title:  Significant responsibility for student AND campus activities  Contact with students

7. Those considered NOT to be campus security authorities: Licensed professional mental health counselors and Pastoral counselors (employed by a religious organization to provide confidential counseling)Who are working within the scope of their license or religious assignment at the time they receive the crime report. Administrative staff not responsible for students (e.g., payroll, facilities) Clerical staff Individual faculty who do NOT serve as advisors to registered student organizations Doctors in the Student Health Center, or Counselors in the Counseling Center, who only provide care to individual students.

8.  U. of Wyoming encourages professional and pastoral counselors [who are not required to report crimes] to tell victims about the Confidential Reporting Process. The counselor must make a judgment call: is it appropriate to discuss crime reporting in this particular situation?  Confidential Reporting Process: victims can report crimes confidentially (no names or criminal investigation) to the STOP Violence Project, 766-3296, to be included in crime statistics.

9.  If someone tells you about a crime or an incident that may be a crime, record the information and submit a report.  Just get the facts, law enforcement will do the analysis.  When in doubt, report it!

10.  These crimes must be reported (definitions follow):  Criminal homicide  Sex offenses, forcible & non-forcible  Aggravated assault  Robbery  Burglary  Motor vehicle theft  Arson

11.  You must also report:  Hate crimes, including any of the seven crimes listed above, or any other crime, if motivated by hate (ex. Vandalism)  Liquor, drug, and weapons – both arrests AND disciplinary referrals for students and employees (staff/faculty).  Stalking  Domestic Violence
