Overall, I was amazed at the need to be so finite in the description of what is or is not a crime, sexual or otherwise. Over time, there is been a great deal of change thrashing out how to best describe and service those individuals who are hurt.
I have learned that this is so much more involved than I would have thought. Particularly when it comes to what is or is not the school’s responsibility in regards to what crimes are committed. The Clery Geography was of great interest to me. The example that struck me was of the 2 students where Bob attacks Brad with a broken bottle and Brad pulls out a gun and kills Bob. Because the 2 students were off campus, You would not include a statistic for this incident in your disclosures because it occurred off campus at a private facility, not within the school's Clery geography. So, even though it's involving students, it's not included in your Clery Crime Statistics. It makes sense, since it was off campus. It isn’t part of the statistics.
I also learned there is a big difference between a burglary and larceny. The Example made it crystal clear regarding the individual that was not a student breaking into the school classroom as opposed to the student who broke into the school classroom and stole the laptop. Although they are both crimes, would one carry a lesser sentence?
