Clery Geography

 

 

Campus Security Authorities must report crimes that occur either on-campus, in non-campus buildings or properties, or on public property. For the purposes of the Clery Act, those terms are defined as follows: 

On-campus

Defined as “any building or property owned or controlled by an institution of higher education within the same reasonably contiguous geographic area of the institution and used by the institution in direct support of, or in a manner related to, the institution’s educational purposes, including student halls; and property within the same reasonably contiguous geographic area of the institution that is owned by the institution but controlled by another person, is used by students, and supports institutional purposes (such as a food or other retail vendor).”

  • On-campus boundaries are outlined in red 
  • Campus buildings are labeled as green and dark grey 

On-campus Subset: On-campus Student Housing

Defined as “any student housing facility that is owned or controlled by the institution, or is located on property that is owned or controlled by the institution, and is within the reasonably contiguous geographic area that makes up campus.” 

  • On-campus student housing buildings are labeled as green 

Non-campus building or property

Defined as “any building or property owned or controlled by a student organization recognized by the institution; and any building or property (other than a branch campus) owned or controlled by an institution of higher education that is used in direct support of, or in relation to, the institution’s educational purposes, is used by students, and is not within the same reasonably contiguous geographic area of the institution.”

  • Examples of non-campus property include the Bozarth Retreat Center and the Charlotte Y. Martin Boathouse 

Public Property

Defined as “all public property that is within the same reasonably contiguous geographic area of the institution, such as a sidewalk, a street, other thoroughfare, or parking facility, and is adjacent to a facility owned or controlled by the institution if the facility is used by the institution in direct support of, or in a manner related to the institution’s educational purposes."

  • Public street ways are labeled as yellow dashes
