Campus Safety and Security Policies
The Jeanne Clery Act is the landmark federal law that requires colleges and universities to disclose information about crime on and around their campus.
The UT Health Science Center is committed to assisting the HSC community in providing for its own safety and security. Information regarding campus security, personal safety, crime prevention, university police law enforcement authority, crime reporting policies, crime statistics for the most recent three-year period, and disciplinary procedures is available on the Health Science Center's police department Web site at http://utpolice.uthscsa.edu/documents/CampusSecurityReport.pdf.
If you would like a paper copy of this information, you may contact the crime prevention office at 210-562-9092.
The “Clery Act” is named in memory of a 19-year-old Lehigh University freshman named Jeanne Ann Clery who was sexually assaulted and murdered in her residence hall room on April 5, 1986.
