While the Clery Act is important to keep the public informed of crime at colleges and universities, it can be confusing and time-consuming for campus security professionals to comply.
Under the Clery Act, all schools that receive federal funding are required to provide an annual security report to employees and students. Non-compliance can result in large fines and damage to a school’s reputation.
