Crime & Fire Log

The Jeanne Clery Disclosure of Campus Security Policy and Campus Crime Statistics Act, or Clery Act, is a federal statute codified at 20 U.S.C. § 1092(f), with implementing regulations at 34 C.F.R. 668.46.

The Clery Act requires colleges and universities that participate in federal financial aid programs to keep and disclose information about crime on and near their campuses. The U.S. Department of Education monitors compliance and can impose civil penalties or suspend institutions from participating in federal student financial aid programs.

The McKendree University Department of Public Safety maintains a public log of reported crimes and fires. The daily crime log records criminal incidents and alleged criminal incidents reported to Public Safety. Each crime log entry includes the nature, date, time, and general location of the crime and the disposition of the complaint, if known.

The most recent 60 days of the log are available for public inspection. Entries older than 60 days are available within two business days of a request.

The Crime & Fire Log is updated daily.
