PROCEDURES FOR GATHERING CRIME STATISTICS
The UMW Police Department is charged with the responsibility of collecting data and preparing the annual crime report. At the beginning of each calendar year the Police Department completes an analysis of crime reported to the Police Department for the preceding calendar year. Data is also collected from the following University Departments: Athletics Department, Title IX Coordinator’s Office, Office of Residence Life, Office of Judicial Affairs, Student Affairs, Student Activities, Psychological Services (The Talley Center) and Health Center. The data collection complies with mandates from the Jeanne Clery Disclosure of Campus Security Policy and Campus Crimes Statistics Act, the Higher Education Opportunity Act (2008) (HEOA), and the Violence Against Women Act (2013) (VAWA)
The crime statistics include data provided by the Stafford County Sheriff’s Office concerning offenses that occur in the area contiguous to the campus. Names and dates of offenses are compared to assure over reporting is not occurring. The University of Mary Washington completes mandatory public information disclosures, including Clery Act reporting without disclosing the name of the victim, in accordance with VAWA guidelines. Additionally, UMW will keep confidential any accommodations or protective measures provided to the victim, to the extent that maintaining confidentiality will not impair the ability of the institution to provide the accommodations or protective measures.
Certain campus “Pastoral Counselors” and campus “Professional Counselors”, when acting as such, are not considered to be a campus security authority and are not required to report crimes for inclusion into the annual disclosure of crime statistics. They are encouraged; if and when they deem it appropriate, to inform persons being counseled of the procedures to report crimes on a voluntary basis for inclusion into the annual crime statistics. Counselors are defined as:
Pastoral Counselor
An employee of the university, who is associated with a religious order or denomination, recognized by that religious order or denomination as someone who provides confidential counseling and who is functioning within the scope of that recognition as a pastoral counselor.
Professional Counselor
An employee of an institution whose official responsibilities include providing psychological counseling to members of the institution’s community and who is functioning within the scope of his or her license or certification.
