Campus Crime Report

Here you will find the most recent Campus Crime Report (pdf) compiled by the University in compliance with the certification requirements of the Drug-Free Schools and Communities Act of 1989, 20 USC 3171 et seq, and Title XII of the Higher Education Act of 1965 (20 USC 1001 et seq) as amended (the Campus Crime and Security Act / Jeanne Clery Act).

Additionally, the federal Campus Sex Crimes Prevention Act, enacted on October
28, 2000, went into effect October 28, 2002. The law requires institutions of higher
education to issue a statement advising the campus community where information
provided by the State concerning registered sex offenders may be obtained.
Please contact the Sexual Offender Registry Board or 978-740-6400. It also requires sex offenders already required to register in a state to provide notice, as required under state law, to each institution of higher education in that state at which the person is employed, carries on a vocation, or is a student.  
 
In 2003 President George W. Bush signed into law “Suzanne’s Law,” requiring police
to notify the National Crime Information Center (NCIC) when someone between
18 and 21 is reported missing, as part of the national “Amber Alert” bill. The federal law is named after Suzanne Lyall, a State University of New York at Albany student who has been missing since 1998.

While UML has not experienced a high rate of crime, violent or otherwise, we have had such incidents. To assist in the prevention of such incidents, the University has a professionally trained police department, a capable residence life staff and students and staffs who are responsible for measures to assist in the protection of them and their possessions. The department welcomes your participation and encourages you to become involved in the function of a secure campus.
