Geography, Daily Crime and Fire Log

Under 34 CFR § 668.46(f), institutions of higher education that maintain a campus police or security department are required to post a daily crime log for property owned or controlled by the institution, streets immediately contiguous to its owned or controlled property, as well as the University Police patrol jurisdiction, also known as the Clery geography. Updates to the daily crime log must be made within two (2) business days upon receiving the report and must be made available upon request for 60 days. In addition, any institution of higher education that maintains on-campus student housing must also maintain a daily fire log. Updates to the fire log must be made within two (2) business days upon receiving the report unless that disclosure is prohibited by law or would jeopardize the confidentiality of the victim and must be made available upon request for 60 days. The fire log may be combined with the daily crime log. 

Wake Forest University combines the daily crime log for incidents occurring within or immediately contiguous to Wake Forest Clery geography and the fire log for incidents that occur on university-owned or controlled property, excluding any day when the institution is closed.
