COMPLIANCE OF THE SIX POSTSECONDARY EDUCATIONAL INSTITUTIONS WITH FEDERAL LAW AND REGULATIONS REGARDING DISCLOSURE OF SECURITY POLICIES
The federal Jeanne Clery Disclosure of Campus Security Policy and Campus Crime Statistics Act (Clery Act) and federal regulations require all postsecondary educational institutions (institutions) that participate in federal student aid under Title IV of the Higher Education Act of 1965 (Title IV) to prepare annual security reports that disclose certain campus security policies.15 The Violence Against Women Reauthorization Act of 2013 amended the Clery Act to require institutions to include in their annual security reports certain policies, procedures, and programs pertaining to domestic violence, dating violence, sexual assault, and stalking, and the procedures the institutions will follow if such conduct occurs. Federal law and regulations describe 46 specific policies that each institution must disclose in its annual security report. These policies include procedures for students and others to report criminal actions. Table C indicates whether the six institutions we visited fully disclosed each of the required policies in their most recent annual security reports.
