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.
