Crime Awareness and Campus Security Act of 1990

The Crime Awareness and Campus Security Act of 1990 requires Darton College, as all other institutions participating in Federal student aid programs, to publish and distribute to all current students and employees an annual report of security policies and crime statistics. An applicant for enrollment or employment may also request a copy of the report.

The “Jeanne Clery Disclosure of Campus Security Policy and Campus Crime Statistics Act” (originally known as the “Campus Security Act”) was enacted by the United States Congress and signed into law by President George Bush in 1990. It is named in memory of 19-year old Lehigh University freshman Jeanne Ann Clery who was assaulted and murdered while asleep in her residence hall in 1986. This law requires us and all institutional officials with significant responsibility for campus and student affairs to publicly disclose 3 years of campus crime statistics.

The report will be distributed each year. Distribution will be made through appropriate publications or mailings.
