Reporting Crimes and Other Emergencies
Each report includes policy statements and specific information about the University's procedures, practices, and programs related to safety and security (eg, policies for responding to emergency situations and sexual offenses). Many individuals throughout the University are identified as Campus Safety Authorities (CSA) and have the responsibility to inform IUPD of specific information regarding any crime they are made aware of.

Any pastoral counselors and licensed professional counselors on campus working in that capacity are not considered campus safety authorities (CSAs). Therefore, they are not required to report crimes to be included in the annual disclosure of crime statistics.
Emergency Notifications (Emergency Alerts)
University officials authorized to send alerts through the emergency notification system will cooperate without delay and with the safety of the community in mind to determine the content of the notification and activate the notification system. These officials will communicate information about the threat to the campus community as a whole, or to the appropriate segment of the community if the threat is limited to a specific building or segment of the population.
Emergency Response and Evacuation Procedures and Tests
These officials will use their discretion to determine the content of the alert, specific method(s) of notification, recipients of the notification and the sending authority. An announced test of the IU-Notify emergency notification system is conducted at least once per calendar year.
