Children on Campus

Important Updates

A new policy — SPG 601.91 Clery Act Compliance — outlines the expectations of the U-M Division of Public Safety and Security and employees designated as CSAs in the university’s compliance with the Clery Act.  Adults working with minors have been identified as CSAs and must complete the mandatory training annually in addition to the required CoC training modules. Any questions related to Clery training requirements can be directed to CleryAct-Compliance@umich.edu.

University faculty, staff, or students who are working with minors in their professional or official capacity and who have questions about whether they may be considered mandated reporters under
Michigan law should contact their supervisor, dean, or vice president, or the program administrator. The Office of  the Vice President and General Counsel is also available to provide advice.

Mandated reporters must immediately report known or suspected mental or physical abuse or neglect of a child made known to them in their professional or official capacity directly to the State of Michigan Department of Human Services
