Annual Security Report

Pepperdine’s Department of Public Safety is committed to ensuring that all Pepperdine campuses remain safe environments for every member of our community. As part of this effort, in compliance with the Jeanne Clery Disclosure of Campus Security Policy and Campus Crime Statistics Act, known as the Clery Act, Pepperdine publishes and distributes an annual security report disclosing crime statistics and campus security policies, procedures, and resources.

Crime statistics are reported for incidents that occur in four defined areas: on-campus, in on-campus housing, on unobstructed public areas immediately adjacent to the campus, and on non-campus properties owned and or controlled by the institution. Campus security policies are described to help inform community members about safety procedures and resources that can help keep themselves and our community safe. This information is published in the Annual Campus Security and Fire Safety Report on or before October 1 each year.

The Annual Security Report is prepared by the Department of Public Safety in cooperation with, among others, Pepperdine's Title IX Office, Office of Community Standards, and Office of Housing and Residence Life staff.

Campus Hazing Transparency Report, Stop Campus Hazing Act (SCHA)

Pepperdine University is committed to fostering a safe, respectful, and supportive learning environment and to complying with all applicable federal and state laws related to hazing prevention and transparency. Under the Stop Campus Hazing Act, the University is required to publish a Campus Hazing Transparency Report when a student organization has been found responsible for hazing in violation of the Hazing Policy.

At this time, Pepperdine University has no findings of responsibility involving student organizations for hazing that require inclusion in the Campus Hazing Transparency Report. This page will be updated at least twice per year, as needed.

Pepperdine encourages all community members to report concerns related to hazing.
