4.18 Federal Timely Warning Obligations

Parties reporting sexual assault, domestic violence, dating violence, and/or stalking should be aware that, under the Clery Act, the University of Iowa must issue timely warnings, called “crime alerts,” for incidents reported to them that pose a serious or continuing threat of bodily harm or danger to members of the campus community.

The University of Iowa will ensure that a complainant’s name and other identifying information is not disclosed, while still providing enough information for community members to make safety decisions in light of the potential danger.
