The U.S. Department of Education is committed to assisting schools in providing a safe
environment for students to learn and staff to work and to keeping parents and students
well informed about campus security. Data collected in this survey will be published by
the Office of Postsecondary Education on the OPE Campus Security Statistics Web-site
located at http://ope.ed.gov/security. The survey was authorized by Congress
with the 1998 amendment to the Higher Education Act of 1965 (HEA) to help potential
college students and their parents research criminal offenses on college campuses.
This survey is authorized by law (P.L. 103-382) in accordance with paragraph 668.46
of the Federal Register/Vol. 64, No. 210/Monday, November 1, 1999/Rules and Regulations.
