The University's crime log is designed, in accordance with the Clery Act and its implementing regulations, to provide information about certain types of offenses that have been reported. Reports of the following types of criminal offenses are included in the University's crime log when they are alleged to have occurred on or near the University's campus.
Federal regulations specify the specific types of crime reports that must be included in the University's crime log and annual crime statistics. (see 34 C.F.R. § 668.46(c)). For purposes of complying with the applicable federal disclosure requirements, the University uses the definitions of those crimes as set out in the federal regulations, or as set forth in the Federal Bureau of Investigation Uniform Crime Reporting Program. Educational institutions use a combination of definitions from the FBI's "Summary Reporting System (SRS) User Manual" and its "National Incident-Based Reporting System (NIBRS) User Manual." As of January 1, 2021, the SRS User Manual has been retired, but the Department of Education continues to use the SRS User Manual for incidents that are defined in both manuals.
