Welcome to Clery Compliance at ÃÛÌÒ´«Ã½Æƽâ°æÏÂÔØ!

What is the Clery Act

The Jeanne Clery Disclosure of Campus Security Policy and Campus Crime Statistics Act or Clery Act, was signed into law in 1990 as a means of consumer protection and transparency to university constituents. It has become a well-knownÌýfederal law that requires colleges and universitiesÌýwho receive federal fundingÌýto comply with a wide array of efforts to promote campus safety, security, and transparency.ÌýIn accordance with this federal law, ÃÛÌÒ´«Ã½Æƽâ°æÏÂÔØ works to ensure full compliance with its obligations, and further, work to ensure our campus community understands this information. !

What does the UniversityÌýdo?

To ensure compliance with the Clery Act, CU must meet obligations in the following three broad categories: (1) Policy and StatisticsÌýDisclosure; (2) Records Collection and Retention; and (3) Training andÌýInformation Dissemination.

1. Policy and StatisticsÌýDisclosure —ÌýCU must provide the campus community and the interested public with accurate statements of current policies and practices regarding procedures for students and others to report criminal actions or other emergencies on campus, security of and access to campus facilities, and campus law enforcement. Additionally, CU outlines procedures and policies related to campus safety, preventionÌýand education initiatives, and statistics of Clery Act crimes.
2. Data Collection and Retention —ÌýCU keeps campus records of crimes reported on campus to CSAs, makes a reasonable good faith effort to obtain certain crime statistics from appropriate law enforcement agencies to include in the Annual Security & Fire Safety Report, and keeps a daily crime log open for public review. To learn more about these statistics, visit the ASFSR section or review the Daily Crime Log linked in the Resources tab.
3. Training and Information Dissemination —ÌýTo provide members of the campus community with information needed to make informed personal safety decisions, CU actively provides:

   1. ÌýTimely WarningsÌýof any Clery Act crimes that represents an ongoing threat to the safety of students and employees, or an Emergency Notification(s)Ìýupon confirmation of a significant emergency or dangerous situation involving an immediate threat to the health or safety of students or employees occurring on ÃÛÌÒ´«Ã½Æƽâ°æÏÂÔØ campus.
