Fire & Crime Information

Clery Act

The Clery Act requires colleges and universities to disclose details and issue safety alerts about crime on and around campus.

Another key requirement of the Clery Act is the issuance of crime alerts to the campus community on crimes considered to be a serious or continuing threat to University community members that are reported to Campus Security Authorities, University Police and local law enforcement agencies.

The University is required to disclose statistics for offenses that occur:

On-Campus,
On or in Non-campus buildings or property owned or controlled (leased, written agreement, etc.) by the University (including student organizations),
Public Property within or immediately adjacent to campus, and/or
During any school-sponsored trips where the University has a written agreement for the trip accommodation and/or academic space of
2 nights or longer, or
1 night or longer if it is repeated use of the same space (i.e. the same trip is taken annually and the same hotel is used every year).

The University is required to disclose statistics for the following offenses:

Criminal Homicide including:
Murder and Non-negligent Manslaughter
Manslaughter by Negligence
Sexual Assault including:
Rape
Fondling
Incest
Statutory Rape
Robbery
Aggravated Assault (in Illinois, aka Aggravated Battery)
Burglary
Motor Vehicle Theft
Stalking
Domestic violence
Dating violence
Hate Crime
All liquor, drug, or weapons law violations resulting in an arrest or disciplinary referral
Arson

If you are in doubt as to whether a crime is reportable, please err on the side of reporting. With the exception of liquor, drug, and weapons law violations, it is immaterial whether an arrest (or disciplinary referral) is made.

Bradley University’s efforts to provide a safe environment are continuously being reviewed and enhanced. A safe campus can be achieved only with the cooperation of the entire university community—students, faculty, staff, and visitors.

Annual Disclosure of Crime Statistics

The Bradley University Police Department and other key university departments prepared The Campus Safety report to comply with the Jeanne Clery Disclosure of Campus Security Policy and Crime Statistics Act. Information on the Clery Act can be located at securityoncampus.org. This report is prepared in cooperation with the local law enforcement agencies surrounding our main campus, the Center for Residential Living and Leadership, Counseling Services, Health Services, the Division of Business Affairs, and the Division of Student Affairs. Each entity provides updated information on their educational efforts and programs to comply with the Act.

Campus crime, arrest, and referral statistics include those reported to the Bradley University Police Department, designated campus officials (including but not limited to directors, deans, department heads, designated Residential Living and Leadership staff, judicial affairs, advisors to students/student organizations, athletic coaches), and local law enforcement agencies. These statistics may also include crimes not required to be reported by The Clery Act – such as those that occurred in private residences or businesses.

Health Services staff and Residential Living and Leadership staff inform their clients of the procedures to report crime to the Bradley University Police Department on a voluntary or confidential basis, should they feel it is in the best interest of the client. A procedure is in place to anonymously gather crime statistics disclosed confidentially during such a session.

Each year, this report is provided to all enrolled students, faculty, and staff. Copies of the report may also be obtained at the Bradley University Police Department office. All prospective employees may obtain a copy from Human Resources, 239 Sisson Hall.

A daily campus crime log is available at the Bradley University Police Office. An abridged version of this published information is available in Braille. Contact the University Police Department for more information.

Employees responsible for any Bradley-related overnight travel that includes students must complete this form with the trip information.

A “Community Advisory Alert” is issued via email when serious criminal activity occurs outside of Bradley University Clery Act geography and does not require immediate action by recipients, or when serious criminal activity that does not meet the Campus Safety Alert criteria occurs within the Bradley University Clery Act geography and does not require immediate action by recipients.

Community Advisory Alert

June 9, 2025

Dear Bradley Campus Community:

A crime has recently occurred in the Bradley University campus area and we want you to be informed so you can take appropriate precautions. Alerts, such as this, are issued for incidents that have already occurred but do not require immediate action by recipients.

On Monday, June 9, 2024, at approximately 5:16 p.m., Bradley University Police and Peoria Police responded to a report of two shots fired near the 1000 block of W. Moss Avenue, near of the intersection of W. Moss Avenue and N. Duryea Place. This is approximately three blocks south of W. Main Street.

No injuries have been reported. No additional evidence was located to indicate shots were fired. No suspect information is available. There is no imminent threat to campus.

An investigation is continuing.

Do Your Part to Stay Safe

The Bradley University Police Department is a fully sworn police department with officers who work to keep the Bradley community safe 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, 365 day a year. The BUPD patrols the campus as well as a significant area off campus. It works closely with other local law enforcement agencies, but safety also requires you to take action. A safe campus can be achieved only with the cooperation of the entire university community—students, faculty, staff, and visitors. Please remember:

Report suspicious people immediately to the Bradley University Police Department by calling 309-677-2000 or using one of the emergency blue light phones on and around campus. During the hours of 5 p.m. and 3 a.m., utilize the Safety Cruiser program by using the Cruiser App or calling 309-677-2800. Use the Student Patrol or Bradley University Police Department escort programs by calling 309-677-2000. Do not leave your property, vehicles, homes or residence hall rooms unsecured. Always be aware of your surroundings. Walk in pairs or groups, especially during the evening and night. Do not become distracted by talking on your cell phone or listening to music through headphones. Travel on well-lit, busy streets and avoid walking through alleys or parking lots. Be aware of places along your path of travel that could conceal a criminal (shrubbery, building recesses, etc.). Avoid or keep a distance from these areas when possible. Take note of suspicious vehicles, especially those that appear to be circling the block or driving unusually slow. If you observe a suspicious vehicle, relay its description and location to the Bradley University Police Department by calling 309-677-2000 or using one of the emergency blue light phones on and around campus. If you think someone is following you, cross the street, head for a well-populated, well-lit area and contact the Bradley University Police Department. If approached, give up your property.

A “Community Advisory Alert” is issued via email when serious criminal activity occurs outside of Bradley University Clery Act geography and does not require immediate action by recipients, or when serious criminal activity that does not meet the Campus Safety Alert criteria occurs within the Bradley University Clery Act geography and does not require immediate action by recipients.

Campus Security Authorities (CSA)

The Clery Act identifies certain categories of students, University employees and contractors as CSAs who have federally mandated responsibilities to report alleged Clery Act crimes that they witness or are reported to them. A Clery Act crime is considered “reported” to the University when it is brought to the attention of a CSA, University Police or local law enforcement personnel by a victim, offender, witness or other third party. The crime reporting party need not be University affiliated.

The University requires CSAs to notify the Bradley University Police Department about crime information as soon as they become aware of it by completing a CSA Report form. CSAs should not investigate crimes or attempt to determine whether a crime occurred. (Please note – if the Bradley University Police respond to the scene, your reporting requirement is met and you are not required to complete the form.)

If you have any questions, please contact the University’s Clery Compliance Coordinator at the Bradley University Police Department at (309) 677-1002.
