In order to comply with the federal mandates of the Clery Act, the University needs assistance. Vice presidents, Deans, Directors and Department Heads of JMU are considered to be Campus Security Authorities. In addition, the Clery Act also identifies certain categories of students, other university employees, volunteers and contractors as CSA's. All CSA's have federally mandated responsibilities to report alleged Clery Act crimes they witness or are reported to them. CSA's must be identified, notified that they are CSA's and provided their federally mandated responsibilities through training. This process must be documented for compliance. The University is designating Clery liaisons or contact persons (or persons as appropriate) in various areas to provide information needed for compliance from their respective areas. The Clery Liaison may use the CSA Registration / Status Change form to notify the University Clery Compliance Officer of new and previously unidentified CSAs and of those identified CSAs who are no longer a CSA due to a change in job function or employment or student status change. Contact the Clery Compliance Officer if you have questions regarding CSA identification and to determine who in your area is identified as a CSA.
