Jeanne Clery Disclosure of Campus Security Policy and Campus Crime Statistics Report

Springfield College is committed to assisting all members of the Springfield College community in providing for their own safety and security.; As required by federal law, each year Springfield College prepares an annual Security and Fire Safety Report, commonly referred to as the Clery Report. The Report contains information regarding campus security and personal safety including topics such as crime prevention, fire safety, crime reporting policies, disciplinary procedures and other matters of importance related to security and safety on campus.

It also contains information about crime statistics for the three previous calendar years concerning reported crimes that occurred on campus, in certain off-campus buildings or property owned or controlled by Springfield College, and on public property within, or immediately adjacent to and accessible from the Springfield College campus, as well as fire statistics for the three previous calendar years concerning Springfield College’s residence halls.
