Clery

If the reporting party is a victim of a sex offense, the victim should be encouraged to report the crime directly to the University Police Department. The CSA must file a Clery Report.

B. “Good faith” confidential, second hand or anonymous reports must be accepted and the CSA must file a Clery Report.

D. This reporting form does not replace or change any existing reporting requirements or procedures established for disciplinary referrals for student
