Campus Security

|
Campus security and safety is an important feature of postsecondary
education. In accordance with The Department of Education and the Crime
Awareness and Campus Security Act of 1990, Avalon School of Cosmetology is
committed to providing students a safe environment in which to learn and
to keep students, parents and employees well informed about campus
security.
Under the Clery Act, data reporting applies to Avalon
School of Cosmetology for the following categories:
- The on-campus category encompasses the following;
Any building or property owned or controlled by an institution within
the same reasonably contiguous geographic area and used by the
institution in direct support of, or in a manner related to, the
institution's educational purposes, including residence halls; and Any
building or property that is within or reasonably contiguous to
paragraph (1) of this definition, that is owned by the institution but
controlled by another person, is frequently used by students, and
supports institutional purposes (such as a food or other retail
vendor).
- The second area is public property that
immediately borders and is accessible from the campus. In many cases
this property consists of a public sidewalk that borders the campus,
the public street along the sidewalk and the public sidewalk on the
other side of the street (i.e., sidewalk, street). Again, only the
portions of the sidewalk, street and sidewalk that are adjacent to
your campus are included in your public property. If you have an urban
campus that is comprised of 100 buildings that have public sidewalks
and public streets separating them, the same rules apply. You must
identify the public property associated with each of these campus
buildings, generally: sidewalk, street, sidewalk.
All institutions have immediate, ongoing and annual
requirements, compliance might differ in some respects from one
institution to another.
Clery crime statistics and security-related policy
requirements that must be met by Avalon School of Cosmetology:
- Collect, classify and count crime reports and
crime statistics.
- Issue campus alerts. To provide the campus
community with information necessary to make informed decisions about
their health and safety, you must: - Issue a timely warning
for any Clery Act crime that represents an ongoing threat to the
safety of students or employees;
- Issue an emergency notification upon the
confirmation of a significant emergency or dangerous situation
involving an immediate threat to the health or safety of students or
employees occurring on the campus.
- Publish an annual security report containing
safety- and security-related policy statements and crime statistics
and distribute it to all current students and employees. Schools also
must inform prospective students and employees about the availability
of the report.
- Each year in the fall you must participate in a
Web-based data collection to disclose crime statistics by type,
location and year.
- In addition to the above requirements, if your
institution maintains a campus police or security department, you must
keep a daily crime log of alleged criminal incidents that is open to
public inspection.

of Cosmetology has the following policies in
