Introduction

Mount Marty University (“MMU” or the “university”) is committed to providing a safe campus for students, faculty, staff, and visitors. Safety is a shared responsibility within our campus community and we rely on every member to contribute by reporting crimes and suspicious activities in a timely manner. MMU prepares this report in compliance with the Jeanne Clery Disclosure of Campus Security Policy and Campus Crime Statistics Act (“Clery Act”) which requires colleges and universities to disclose information regarding crime and security policies annually and to disclose statistics about crime activity occurring on or near campus. The Office of Institutional Effectiveness, in collaboration with the Campus Safety Office and a number of university departments and local law enforcement, prepares, compiles, and distributes this information in this Annual Security Report. The report includes information about the university’s policies on campus security, the reporting of crimes, the university’s crime and security prevention initiatives, alcohol and drug use. In addition, this report includes statistics for the previous three years concerning reported crimes that occurred on-campus, in certain non-campus buildings and property, and on public property within, or immediately adjacent to and accessible from, the campus. This report also includes institutional policies concerning sexual assault and other matters.

 

Data Collection and Distribution

As required by the Clery Act, crime, arrest, and student disciplinary data is requested from various sources. Requests for information are sent to campus community members as well as local law enforcement agencies. Campus crime, arrest and referral statistics include those reported to local law enforcement, Campus Safety, and designated campus officials including directors, deans, department heads, student advisors and athletic coaches. Statistics from these sources are compiled and made available in this report and at U.S. Department of Education Campus Safety and Security. MMU faculty, staff, and students are notified directly of the availability of this report via a campus wide e-mail. New and prospective students and prospective employees are also made aware of this report during orientation and through other campus resources. Copies of this report are available in the Office of Institutional Effectiveness (605-668-1577) or via MMU Campus Safety.

 

Crime Log/Fire Log

The Campus Safety Office maintains a daily log of all allegations of crimes reported to have occurred on campus. The log maintains basic information on the event, including the nature of the event; the time, date, and location of the event; the date and time the event was reported; and the disposition of the complaint. The log of the past 60 days is available upon request from the Campus Safety Office. Information may be temporarily withheld if certain circumstances are met, including jeopardizing an on-going investigation at the law enforcement level or jeopardizing the safety of an individual. The Facilities Office maintains a daily log of all fires reported to have occurred on campus. The log maintains information on the event, including the date of the incident, the building in which the fire occurred, the cause of the fire and any damage that may have occurred.
