The Clery Act is a federal law that requires colleges and universities to disclose information about crime on and around their campuses. The Annual Security and Fire Safety Report, required by the Clery Act, provides information on crime statistics, emergency response and warning procedures, security policies, fire safety policies, educational programs, and procedures available to address crimes, including dating violence, domestic violence, sexual assault, and stalking.
Paper copies are also available upon request; requests can be made to ccr@wsu.edu or by contacting Campus Security.
