Clery Reportable Locations (Clery Geography)

Clery crime statistics are reported geographically according to the following Clery categories: On-campus, Residential Facility; Non-campus Property; and Public Property.  Be advised – location is central to Clery.  Crimes that do not occur within Clery Act geography are not included in Clery Act statistics, even if University students and employees are involved.

The following definitions apply to these geographic categories:

On-Campus

(1) Any building or property owned or controlled by the institution within the same reasonably contiguous geographic area (within one [1] mile) and used by the institution in direct support of, or in a manner related to, the institution’s educational purposes, including residence halls; and (2) Any building or property that is within or reasonably contiguous to the area identified in paragraph (1) of this definition, that is owned by the institution but controlled by another person, is frequently used by students, and supports institutional purposes (such as a food or other retail vendor).

Residential Facility

This is a subset of on-campus geography.  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 considered reasonably contiguous (a location that students consider to be, and treat as, part of “campus.”  Generally speaking, it is usually within one [1] mile to Main Campus).  It includes residence halls, student apartment housing or Greek sponsored housing facilities, if appropriate.

Non-Campus Building or Property

(1) Any building or property owned or controlled by a student organization that is officially recognized by the institution; or (2) any building or property owned or controlled by an institution that is used in direct support of, or in relation to, the institution’s educational purposes, is frequently used by students, and is not within the same reasonably contiguous geographic area (within one [1] mile) of the institution.

Non-Campus geography also includes buildings and properties (such, as hotel or academic space) under the temporary control of the institution during student trips (domestic or international) of more than one night or to repeated locations.  See Institutional Sponsored Travel.

Public Property

All public property including thoroughfares, streets, sidewalks, and parking facilities, that is within the campus, or immediately adjacent to and accessible from the campus.
