A. General:
1. Texas Criminal and Motor Vehicle laws, in addition to University regulations, are in effect on Huston-Tillotson University property 24 hours a day. Strict adherence to all regulations is required to protect pedestrians and vehicles and to provide access for emergency vehicles. The Campus Public Safety Department has jurisdiction to enforce the regulations with the right to remove or impound any vehicle operated or parked in violation of the regulations. The owner of the vehicle will be required to pay the cost of moving and storing the vehicle.
2. Students, faculty, and staff are expected to be familiar with and abide by these regulations. The fact that a violation notice is not issued when a vehicle is illegally parked does not mean or imply that the regulation or law is no longer in effect. The responsibility for obtaining knowledge of all laws and regulations in force rests with the motor vehicle operator.
3. These regulations apply to all vehicles operated on the campus of Huston-Tillotson University. The Campus Public Safety Department will exercise reasonable protection and security for vehicle on campus, but at the same time each owner is expected to take the necessary steps to safeguard his/her property.

The Crime Awareness and Campus Security Act of 1990 requires Huston-Tillotson University to report designated crimes that occur on and in close proximity of University property. This statistical information must be provided for the three previous years.
The Jeanne Clery Disclosure of Campus Safety Policy and Campus Crime Statistics Act is the landmark federal law, originally known as the Campus Security Act, that requires colleges and universities across the United Stated to disclose information about crime on the around their campuses. Because the law is tied to participation in federal student financial aid programs it applies to most institutions of higher education both public and private. It is enforced by the U.S. Department of Education.
The following report indicates all designated offenses reported to HTCS for years 2006, 2007, 2008: Learn More: See Crime Statistics
