Title IX and Safety & Security

Jeanne Clery Campus Safety Act

On December 23, 2024, the Stop Campus Hazing Act was enacted, renaming the Jeanne Clery Disclosure of Campus Security Policy and Campus Crime Statistics Act (commonly known as the Clery Act) to the Jeanne Clery Campus Safety Act.

The purpose of the Jeanne Clery Campus Safety Act is to ensure that students, prospective students, employees, and the public have access to accurate information regarding campus safety, security policies, and reported crimes occurring within an institution's Clery geography.

As a condition of participation in federal Title IV student financial aid programs, institutions of higher education must comply with the requirements of the Jeanne Clery Campus Safety Act. These requirements include the collection, publication, and disclosure of campus crime statistics, as well as the development and publication of campus safety and security policies.

Institutions are required to collect and report statistics related to Clery-reportable crimes, including dating violence, domestic violence, sexual assault, stalking, and hazing. For hazing, Campus must disclose hazing incidents reported to Campus Security Authorities or local police agencies and include applicable hazing policies, reporting procedures, investigation process information, applicable law references, prevention and awareness programming, and response resources within the Annual Security Report (ASR) or linked disclosure materials. Campus publishes this information annually to promote transparency, awareness, and campus safety.

About Notifications

Campus's notification system is designed to help promote campus safety by providing students, faculty, and staff with timely access to important information. The system may issue three types of communications to the campus community: Timely Warnings, Emergency Notifications, and Community Advisories.

  • Timely Warningsare issued when Campus receives a report of a Clery-reportable crime occurring within Campus's Clery geography that is reported to a Campus Security Authority or local law enforcement agency and Campus determines the reported incident represents a serious or continuing threat to students or employees. Timely Warnings are issued as soon as pertinent information is available, and are intended to aid in the prevention of similar crimes. Decisions about whether to issue a Timely Warning are made on a case-by-case basis and may consider the nature of the crime, the potential continuing threat to the campus community, and whether issuing the warning could compromise law enforcement or safety response efforts.
  • Emergency Notifications are issued when Campus confirms a significant emergency or dangerous situation occurring on campus that involves an immediate threat to the health or safety of students, faculty, staff, or other members of the campus community. Examples may include an active shooter, bomb threat, fire, severe weather, or other urgent situations. Campus will initiate Emergency Notification immediately upon confirmation and without delay, taking into account the safety of the community, unless issuing the notification would compromise efforts to assist a victim or contain, respond to, or otherwise mitigate the emergency.
  • Community Advisories are not required by the Clery Act, but may be issued when Campus determines that a reported event or safety concern warrants additional awareness for the campus community. These advisories are intended to help keep the Campus community informed about safety-related incidents occurring on or near campus property.

Daily Crime Log

Campus maintains a Daily Crime Log of criminal incidents and alleged criminal incidents reported to contracted patrol services or Campus Security Authorities (CSAs) as required for institutions that maintain a campus police or security function. The Daily Crime Log is available for public inspection during normal business hours at the Sacramento location, 5221 Madison Avenue, Sacramento, CA.

The Sacramento Office Manager, or designee, maintains the Daily Crime Log through an electronic reporting system. The log includes reports of crimes that occur within Campus's Clery geography, or within the patrol jurisdiction of the contracted security service, and are reported to any security personnel or CSA.

Any person may request to inspect the Daily Crime Log for the most recent 60-day period. Access to the log is provided free of charge during normal business hours. Crime log records older than 60 days will be made available within two (2) business days of a request and include records maintained for the previous seven years, as applicable.

To the extent known, the Daily Crime Log includes:

  • The nature of the crime;
  • The date and time the crime was reported;
  • The date and time the crime occurred;
  • The general location of the crime; and
  • The disposition of the complaint or case, updated within two (2) business days of the report.

Mass Notification System

Campus may communicate emergency information, safety updates, and operational status changes through the following channels:

  • Campus homepage;
  • Banners displayed on Campus-owned websites;
  • Official Campus social media accounts;
  • Campuswire; and
  • Other communication platforms deemed appropriate based on the nature of the incident.

All students, faculty, and staff are automatically enrolled in the emergency notification system using their Campus contact information. During emergencies or severe weather events, members of the Campus community are also encouraged to monitor local news and weather sources for additional information and instructions. Campus maintains a multi-channel emergency communications system designed to provide timely and effective notifications when immediate communication with the campus community is necessary.

Reporting a Critical Incident

If you are experiencing a crisis or are aware of a serious concern involving a student, please notify the Student Affairs team as soon as possible by emailing report@campus.edu with all available details.

What Qualifies as a Critical Incident?

  • Immediate Safety Risks: Active threats, violence, medical emergencies, or situations involving imminent danger.
  • Self-Harm or Suicide Risk:Suicidal thoughts, threats of self-harm, or significant emotional distress that raises concerns for a student's safety.
  • Digital Safety and Privacy Violations: Non-consensual sharing of intimate images, explicit content, or other serious online conduct affecting a student's well-being.

Emergency Situations

Annual Security Report

Campus publishes an Annual Security Report (ASR) for all current and prospective students and employees in accordance with federal law. The report includes campus crime statistics for the previous three calendar years, campus safety and security policies, emergency procedures, and other required safety-related disclosures.

Campus's 2025 Annual Security Report was published on September 1, 2025. A printed copy may be requested by contacting compliance@campus.edu.

2025 Annual Security Report (PDF)

Campus will comply with applicable federal hazing transparency reporting requirements under the Stop Campus Hazing Act. If Campus makes a finding that a student organization has violated Campus's standards of conduct related to hazing, Campus will publish a Hazing Transparency Report summarizing the finding in accordance with federal requirements. The report will not include personally identifiable information. Campus is not required to develop or update the report unless Campus has made a finding of hazing violation. At this time, Campus has no reportable hazing findings.
