XIII. Federal Statistical Reporting and Timely Warning

Certain campus officials – those deemed Campus Security Authorities (i.e., Vice President of Student Life, Dean of Students, Director of Athletics, Assistant Athletics Director for Compliance & Operations, Title IX/EEO Coordinator, Director of Risk Management and Compliance, Director of Campus Security, Campus Security Personnel, Vice President for Academic Affairs, Wellness Center Health Services Staff, Resident Directors, Resident Assistants, Director of Austrian Program, Director of Student Life (Austrian Program), and Office Manager (Austrian Program) have a duty to report a crime when it is brought to their attention for statistical reporting purposes under the Clery Act. However, all personally identifiable information is kept confidential, but statistical information must be passed along to the appropriate University official regarding the type of incident and its general location (on or off-campus, in the surrounding area, but no addresses are given) for publication in the University’s Annual Security Report. This report helps to provide the community a clear picture of the extent and nature of campus crime and to ensure greater community safety.

The University will issue a timely warning when it receives a report of a crime that represents a serious or ongoing threat to the safety of members of the campus community. The university may also issue a warning to the campus community when other instances pose a safety concern.
