Clery Act

The Jeanne Clery Disclosure of Campus Security Policy and Campus Crime Statistics Act, formerly the Campus Security Act of 1990, requires Athens Technical College to disclose to the public specific crime-related information on an annual basis. In compliance with this legislation, the college must report campus crime statistics, campus offenses, and security measures to all students and employees by October 1 of each year.

Prospective students and employees shall receive either a copy of the report or a notice of its availability and a brief summary of its contents. The college may publish the report electronically, but the college must give students, employees, and potential students or employees a paper copy upon request and individually inform them of the availability of the report in electronic format. The college sends official annual notifications of the availability of the new report to all currently enrolled students via their @student.athenstech.edu address and to all faculty and staff via their official college email address.

The college posts the annual reports on the website no later than October 1. Current students, faculty, and staff, as well as prospective students and employees, may contact campus security at (706) 355-5116 for clarification or additional information.
