Campus crime

blue line

The Crime Awareness and Campus Security Act of 1990 (Pub L. 101-542; 104 Stat. 2384-2387; 20 U.S.C. 1092), or CACSA, was written to ensure that students, employees, and visitors to institutions of higher education are aware both of the incidence of crime and of policies and procedures for preventing or reporting occurrences of crime on their campus. CACSA requires postsecondary institutions, as a condition of participating in federal student aid programs, to "prepare, publish, and distribute...to all current students and employees, and to any applicant for enrollment or employment upon request, an annual security report" which contains this information.
