The Crime Awareness and Campus Security Act of 1990
The university’s Business Services and Facilities department is responsible for the safety and security of all university property. Its headquarters are located at 536 Mission Street in San Francisco. The campus security staff uses two approaches in its efforts to prevent crime: first, eliminating or minimizing opportunities for crime; and second, encouraging students and staff to be responsible for their own security and the security of others.
In the 1980s, concerns grew about crime and security at the nation's post secondary institutions. Such institutions traditionally had been considered to be safe havens where students could focus on their studies. However, a number of high profile violent crimes on college campuses changed that perception. Such concerns led Congress to pass legislation regarding campus security and crime reporting at post secondary institutions.
The Student Right-to-Know and Campus Security acts were passed by Congress in 1990 in response to concerns about crime and security at post secondary education institutions. This Act requires institutions participating in student financial aid programs under Title IV of the
Higher Education Act of 1965 to disclose information about campus safety policies and procedures and to provide statistics concerning whether certain crimes took place on campus.
