The Campus Security Act was amended in 1998. Any marked increase across years or in the revised statistics from previous years can be accounted for by the fact that the geographic boundaries for reporting were greatly expanded in 1998, and reporting of drug, alcohol, and weapons violations has also been broaden to include not only arrest but also disciplinary referrals.

*** This category includes all on campus incidents, including those listed in the category below, “In dormitories or other residential facilities.” Therefore, the two categories are not cumulative, but duplicative.
