Crime Reporting
The crime log includes all crimes reported to the Department of Public Safety. We are working on a new crime log system that will be published online at a future date. The daily crime log is available in the lobby at the UI Department of Public Safety, 808 University Capitol Centre, 200 S. Capitol St. and can be sent digitally by request.
*Note: This Crime Log and the Clery Act statistics cannot be reconciled with each other. The crime log references Iowa criminal laws, where Clery Act definitions rely on federal uniform crime reporting definitions or even separate definitions entirely. Also, Clery statistics are geographic specific; whereas the crime log includes all crimes reported to the Department of Public Safety. For questions please contact our Office of Clery Compliance.
