Campus Security Authority (CSA)

The Clery Act requires collecting and publishing statistics for crimes that occur on campus property and in certain other campus-associated locations.  Because not all crimes are reported to Police, the Clery Act requires other campus staff, defined as Campus Security Authorities (CSAs), to tell campus Police about crimes reported to them.  A CSA is a campus employee with significant responsibility for student and campus activities or staff designated as individuals or departments to whom crimes should be reported. Crime reports from CSAs are included in annual statistics, the daily crime log, and assessed for the possibility of a campus alert to warn the community about ongoing risks.
