CSA Resources
Campus Security Authorities (CSA) are individuals at the University who, because of their functional role, have an obligation to notify the University department responsible for collecting crime information (i.e. the campus police department) of alleged Clery crimes that are reported to or witnessed by the CSA. CSAs include campus police employees and other persons who:
- Have responsibility for campus security but who are not employees of a campus police department or a campus security department;
- Are specified in the campus Annual Security Report (ASR) as an individual to whom students and employees should report criminal offenses; or
- Have significant responsibility for student and campus activities, including, but not limited to, student housing, student discipline, and campus judicial.
Frequently Asked Questions
When in doubt contact the Clery Act Compliance Program Manager to assist (clery@uci.edu or 949-824-1227).
The Jeanne Clery Campus Safety Act (the Clery Act) defines those individuals who must act as CSAs. If your position functions fall into one of those categories, you cannot opt out of being a CSA and are required to report Clery Crimes that are reported to you.
If you believe you have been mistakenly identified as a CSA because your position functions do not fall into one of the identified categories of employees, contact clery@uci.edu, and provide an explanation or your position description for review.
