Students' Right To Know Report
About Seton Hall
Seton Hall University’s campus in South Orange, New Jersey consists of more than 35 academic, residential and recreational buildings and facilities located on approximately 58 acres of land. Seton Hall is deeply committed to ensuring the welfare and safety of its 10,000 undergraduate and graduate students. Some 2,200 of these men and women live in campus housing and another 1,000 individuals serve the University community in various full and part-time faculty, administrative, staff and service positions.
Seton Hall Law School has 1,350 students and a total of 150 faculty and staff. It is located in an office complex in downtown Newark, New Jersey at 1111 Raymond Boulevard at the intersection of McCarter Highway. Seton Hall Law School has no residential facilities.
University officials regularly monitor and re-evaluate policies to ensure that the time spent on our campuses by everyone, including guests, is peaceful and rewarding. We try to impress on all members of the University that no community, urban or rural, public or private, is completely immune from the problems of our society and that campus safety is a responsibility shared by all. This narrative is intended to inform readers of Seton Hall University’s safety and security initiatives and regular programs and services.
Department of Public Safety & Security
The department of Public Safety & Security is located in the Public Safety & Security building adjacent to the Ward Place Gate and provides direction for the twenty-four hour security services to the University. The department operates within the University’s Division of Student Affairs and Enrollment Services. The Director of Public Safety and Security reports directly to the Vice President for Student Affairs and Enrollment Services.
A force of Seton Hall University uniformed security officers, supplemented by a contract guard service, is assigned patrolling functions throughout the campus on foot, by bicycle and motor vehicle. These patrols are electronically monitored to assure compliance with patrol directives established by an experienced Public Safety administrative staff. The security officers do not possess any police powers and are not empowered to make arrests. All security personnel are equipped with two-way radios and maintain constant contact with the dispatcher in the Security office.
The Department of Public Safety & Security maintains regular and on-going contact with the South Orange Department and has invited the police to frequently patrol the campus. Off duty South Police Orange Police Officers are employed by the University to conduct uniformed foot patrols of the campus each evening. A direct telephone tie line between the Department of Public Safety & Security and the South Orange Police Department provides instant contact. The Police Department is located less than one half mile from the South Orange campus.
Security at the Seton Hall Law School is managed by a department of Public Safety administrator who oversees a staff comprised of members of a contract guard service. The policies and procedures in effect at the law school mirror those on the South Orange campus ensuring continuity and accountability in security services. Public Safety personnel have developed close working relationships with the Newark Police and other local law enforcement agencies. As on the main campus, a direct telephone line to the Newark Police Department provides instant contact in an emergency.
Reporting Crimes
Community members, students, faculty, staff and guests are encouraged to report all crimes and unusual incidents to Public Safety and Security personnel, the Dean of Students and Community Development or other University officials in a prompt and accurate manner. Resident students are also encouraged to report such activities to their resident assistants and other Housing & Residence Life administrators. All reports of crimes which are made to security are reviewed and investigated as needed. Additionally, The Department of Public Safety and Security has an Anonymous Witness website which is located at http://studentaffairs.shu.edu/security/index.html, offering the community another way to report crimes and help keep our campuses safe.
On the main campus, in an emergency, contact the South Orange Police by dialing 911 or (973) 763-3000. The Department of Public Safety and Security can be reached by dialing 9300 from any campus phone or by dialing (973) 761-9300. In addition, the University has provided 42 emergency telephones at various outdoor locations on the campus (please refer to campus map provided on back cover) and courtesy phones have been installed in most buildings.
At the Law School, the Newark Police and Fire Departments can be contacted by directly dialing 911 or (973) 733-6000 or by contacting the Central Security Desk at either (973) 642-8725 or 8130. In addition, there are forty one (41) emergency, or courtesy, telephones located in strategic areas throughout the building.
Confidentiality
Seton Hall University is proud to provide professional counseling services to members of the University community when needed. As a Catholic institution, pastoral counseling is also readily available to those seeking support from the clergy. Communications between members of the University community and these counselors and clergy are considered privileged and cannot be disclosed without the consent of the individual seeking counseling.
As a matter of university policy, Counseling Services personnel or members of the clergy will verbally offer victims or witnesses information on how to properly report crimes to the university or law enforcement.
Members of the Seton Hall University Counseling Services and members of the clergy are required to report incidents where a community member expresses intent to harm themselves or others.
Community Alerts
In the event that a situation arises, either on or off campus that, in the judgment of the Director of Public Safety and Security, constitutes an on-going or continuing threat, a campus wide “timely warning” will be issued. This information is provided electronically via the University’s email system and is posted in written document form at various areas accessed by members of the campus community. The University will also issue timely warnings via the student newspaper
“The Setonian.” Anyone with information warranting a timely warning should report the circumstances to the Department of Public Safety and Security at (973) 761—9300 or in person at the Public Safety building. At the Law School, please contact the Security Manager at (973) 642-8252.
The South Orange and Newark Police Departments provide the University with information relative to criminal activity in off-campus locations as it occurs. South Orange Police regularly maintain communication with University administration regarding off- campus incidents involving University members. However, the University does not currently have any recognized off-campus student organizations requiring monitoring by the South Orange or Newark Police Departments.
Physical Conditions and Support
The physical condition of the campus and its facilities play an integral part in the overall security of the University. The Department of Public Safety & Security in conjunction with the Department of Facilities Engineering has established a “Security Priority” work order request to assure priority attention is given to those items that have specific security considerations for repair or implementation. The University issues keys or access cards to faculty, staff and resident students for their designated work and/or living areas. The University has professional locksmiths designated to repair and maintain the integrity of the key and lock system.
On the main campus, the departments of Facilities Engineering, Public Safety & Security, and Housing and Residence Life, in coordinated effort, regulate and maintain key systems, lighting improvements, shrubbery control and hardware systems. Based upon occupant requests, SHU facilities are opened and closed at various scheduled times. Once the exterior doors are locked, security officers conduct random patrols to recheck the security of the facility. Intruder alarms and electronic surveillance systems are also in use throughout the campus.
Fencing surrounds the entire University campus and all pedestrian access gates have been equipped with electronic card readers. These gates are secured and only persons who have been issued Seton Hall University ID cards will have valid access. Vehicular traffic is monitored through gates and guardhouses at all entrances.
Non-campus university property is alarmed and regularly inspected by Public Safety patrols. Off campus university owned residence halls are equipped with electronic surveillance systems and are staffed by Public Safety personnel from 10:00 PM– 6:00 AM daily.
At the Law School, the physical condition of the building is monitored by the Department of Facilities Engineering and requests of a security nature (keys, etc.) are coordinated through the Department of Public Safety and Security (Security Manager). Electronic surveillance systems have been installed to monitor Law school property as well as adjacent areas of public property. As on the main campus, alarm systems are employed throughout the building.
Public Safety personnel check all persons entering the building as they enter through a check point at the security desk adjacent to the main entrance.
Security Awareness Programs
During Orientation in June and August, students and parents are informed of the array of services offered by the Department of Public Safety and Security. Informative presentations outline ways to maintain public safety and residence hall security. Students are told about crime on-campus and in surrounding neighborhoods. Similar information is available to new employees.
A daily crime log of all reported criminal incidents is maintained by the Department of Public Safety and is available for inspection 24 hours a day at the Public Safety Building.
Seton Hall University offers free Rape Aggression Defense Training (RAD), taught by certified instructors, for female members of the University community, four to six times a year. It is a comprehensive course that begins with awareness, prevention, risk reduction and avoidance, while progressing on to the basics of hands-on defense training. Course schedules are announced through the University's Broadcast Announcement System and registration is available through the Department of Public Safety and Security.
At the beginning of each academic year, all incoming freshmen are required to attend an interactive session and are provided crime prevention information at their orientation. Housing and Residence Life personnel provide ongoing crime prevention tips at floor meetings. The Department of Public Safety & Security provides special engravers to the Housing Office for students to mark particular identifiable information on their property.
In addition to seminars, information is disseminated to students and employees through crime prevention awareness packets, security alerts, weekly poster displays, videos available on the Public Safety website, and crime updates published weekly in the student newspaper.
As part of an ongoing security awareness program, Public Safety officers, while conducting foot patrols each evening, identify and record areas left unsecured and at risk for criminal activity. Public Safety staff will then send electronic notification to members of each respective office notifying them of the necessity to properly secure all office areas during non-business hours.
In areas where a recent crime has occurred, Public Safety personnel will post door tags to alert the University community in an effort to promote security awareness and prevent future occurrences of a similar nature.
Members of the Department of Public Safety and Security, in collaboration with Housing and Residence Life, the Department of Community Development and other departments within the Division of Student Affairs and Enrollment Services regularly plan and facilitate programming endeavors on topics related to personal safety, sexual assault prevention and alcohol and drug abuse.
Additional Security Services
The Security Office provides 24-hour escort service within the confines of the campus. Requests for escorts are made by contacting Public Safety at (973)761-9300 or by dialing 9300 from any University phone.
In order to provide an added level of security and services to the members of the university community, regularly scheduled transportation in and about campus to the business district of the Village of South Orange is provided by the SHUfly shuttle. For rate and scheduling information contact Parking Services at (973) 313-6089.
At the Law School, daily shuttle service to various locations in the greater downtown area is provided from 6:00pm-1:00am (5:00pm-1:00am during Eastern Standard Hours). Students are also encouraged to take advantage of the New Jersey Transit Light Rail Service, especially during the daytime hours when the shuttle is not in service.
Residence Hall Visitation
Seton Hall is an open campus as are most university and college campuses. The University has adopted and enforces a comprehensive residence hall visitation policy that requires all non-student visitors to be signed into the residence halls by a student residing in that building. Student’s visitors are authorized entry to residence halls up to midnight with an electronic verification of their status. The Resident Hall Visitation Policy may be found in its entirety in the Student Handbook. This handbook is available for access electronically on the University’s website. All students are required to read and familiarize themselves with this publication. After authorized visitation hours, any individual who is not accompanied by a Seton Hall student or who is not pre-authorized for late visitation will not be given access to the campus without good cause. All doors in University housing located on the South Orange Campus are locked 24 hours a day. The front desks of each residence hall entrance is staffed through the day by members of the Office of Housing and Residence Life and during overnight hours by trained Security Personnel.
Alcohol and Drug Policies
Seton Hall University is committed to promoting the health and safety of its campus community through a program of alcohol and drug education and the implementation of relevant policies. This continues in an effort to provide an academic and work environment which is free from drugs or alcohol. In doing so, the policies enforced abide by all local, state and federal laws regarding the use and prohibition of alcohol and drugs. The Drug-Free Workplace Policy, found in the University Policy and Procedure Manual, and the Alcohol and Other Drug Policy found in the University Student Handbook describes these policies, as they are applicable to employees and students. Any member of the University Community (employee or student) who violates the policies regarding drugs and alcohol will not only be subject to prosecution to the extent allowed by law, but will face University disciplinary action as well, including the possible termination of employment or academic dismissal.
At the Law School, the consumption of alcoholic beverages is not allowed in general on or about the confines of the building. However, there is a policy regarding the consumption of alcohol at known Law School sponsored functions. For a more detailed description, please refer to the following link: http://law.shu.edu/administration/student_services/alcohol_policy.htm
Throughout the year, students are routinely offered prevention and awareness programs through the collaborative efforts of the Department of Public Safety & Security, the Department of Community Development, Health and Counseling Services and Housing & Residence Life. When an incident is reported, individuals are provided information regarding their rights within the University Community Standards (judicial) process as well as referral to local police and other support networks.
Policies Relating to Sex Offenses
All forms of sexual offenses are violations of the University's Community Standards and therefore the University has developed a comprehensive “Sexual Assault and Misconduct Policy” which is contained in the Student Handbook and is available on-line at: www.shu.edu.
While most victims of sexual assault are women, some men have also experienced this crime. Male victims of sexual assault at Seton Hall University receive the same services as women. Emotional support, counseling, medical treatment and legal options are available to assist all those recovering from sexual assault.
The University educates the student community about sexual assaults and date rape through mandatory freshman orientations each fall. Informative programs are conducted throughout the year by the Department of Community Development and Health & Counseling Services. In addition, the Department of Public Safety and Security conducts Rape Aggression Defense (RAD) Training four to six times a year. Literature on date rape education, risk reduction, and University response is available through the Department of Public Safety and Security, the Department of Community Development, and Health and Counseling Services.
If you are a victim of sexual assault at this institution, your first priority should be to get to a safe place and obtain necessary medical treatment. The University strongly advocates that a victim of sexual assault report the incident in a timely manner. An assault should be reported directly to the Department of Public Safety and Security at (973) 761-9300, the South Orange Police at (973) 763-3000, the Newark Police at (973) 733-6000 for the Law School, or to any identified campus authority as indicated in this publication. University officials to which a sexual assault can be reported will provide assistance in notifying law enforcement authorities if so desired.
All victims of sexual assault are afforded the following rights as contained in the New Jersey Campus Sexual Assault Victim’s Bill of Rights:
CAMPUS SEXUAL ASSAULT VICTIM’S BILL OF RIGHTS
(Pursuant to NJSA 18A, Chapter 61E)
INTRODUCTION
A college or university in a free society must be devoted to the pursuit of truth and knowledge through reason and open communication among its members. Academic communities acknowledge the necessity of being intellectually stimulating where the diversity of ideas is valued. Its rules must be conceived for the purpose of furthering and protecting the rights of all members of the college community in achieving these ends. The boundaries of personal freedom are limited to applicable state and federal laws and institutional rules and regulations governing interpersonal behavior. In creating a community free from violence, sexual assault and nonconsensual sexual contact, respect for the individual and human dignity are of paramount importance. The state of New Jersey recognizes that the impact of violence on its victims and the surrounding community can be severe and long lasting. Thus, it has established this Bill of Rights to articulate requirements for policies, procedures and services designed to insure that the needs of victims are met and that the colleges and universities in New Jersey create and maintain communities that support human dignity.
BILL OF RIGHTS
The following Rights shall be accorded to victims of sexual assault that occur:
-
on the campus of any public or independent institution of higher education in the state of New Jersey, and where the victim or alleged perpetrator is a student at that institution, and/or
-
when the victim is a student involved in an off campus sexual assault.
HUMAN DIGNITY RIGHTS
-
To be free from any suggestion that victims must report the crimes to be assured of any other right guaranteed under this policy.
-
To have any allegations of sexual assault treated seriously; the right to be treated with dignity.
-
To be free from any suggestion that victims are responsible for the commission of crimes against them
To be free from any pressure from campus personnel to:
-
A) report crimes if the victim does not wish to do so
-
B) report crimes as lesser offenses than the victim perceives the crime to be
-
C) refrain from reporting crimes
-
D) refrain from reporting crimes to avoid unwanted personal publicity.
RIGHTS TO RESOURCES ON AND OFF CAMPUS
-
To be notified of existing campus and community based medical, counseling, mental health and student services for victims of sexual assault whether or not the crime is formally reported to campus or civil authorities.
-
To have access to campus counseling under the same terms and conditions which apply to other students in their institution seeking such counseling.
To be informed of and assisted in exercising:
-
A) any rights to confidential or anonymous testing for sexually transmitted diseases, human immunodeficiency virus, and/or pregnancy
-
B) any rights that may be provided by law to compel and disclose the results of testing of sexual assault suspects for communicable diseases.
CAMPUS JUDICIAL RIGHTS
-
To be afforded the same access to legal assistance as the accused.
-
To be afforded the same opportunity to have others present during any campus disciplinary proceeding that is allowed the accused.
-
To be notified of the outcome of the sexual assault disciplinary proceeding against the accused.
LEGAL RIGHTS
-
To have any allegation of sexual assault investigated and adjudicated by the appropriate criminal and civil authorities of the jurisdiction in which the sexual assault is reported.
-
To receive full and prompt cooperation and assistance of campus personnel in notifying the proper authorities.
-
To receive full, prompt, and victim sensitive cooperation of campus personnel with regard to obtaining, securing, and maintaining evidence, including a medical examination when it is necessary to preserve evidence of the assault.
-
To be free from any suggestion that victims were contributory negligent or assumed the risk of being assaulted.
CAMPUS INTERVENTION RIGHTS
-
To require campus personnel to take reasonable and necessary actions to prevent further unwanted contact of victims by their alleged assailants.
-
To be notified of the options for and provided assistance in changing academic and living situations if such changes are reasonably available.
STATUTORY MANDATES
Each campus must guarantee that this Bill of Rights is implemented. It is the obligation of the individual campus governing board to examine resources dedicated to services required to implement the Bill of Rights and to make appropriate requests to increase or reallocate resources where necessary to ensure implementation. Each campus shall make every reasonable effort to ensure that every student at that institution receives a copy of this document. Nothing in this act or in any "Campus Assault Victim’s Bill of Rights" developed in accordance with the provisions of this act, shall be construed to preclude or in any way restrict any public or independent institution of higher education in the State from reporting any suspected crime or offense to the appropriate law enforcement authorities.
In The Event You Are A Victim of Sexual Assault:
Try to preserve all physical evidence. Do not wash, use the toilet, or change clothing if you can avoid it. If you do change clothes, put all clothing you were wearing at the time of the attack in a paper, not plastic, bag.
On campus victim services include counseling through the University's Health and Counseling Services. Additional victim services may be obtained by contacting with The Essex County Rape Care Center Hot Line at 1-877-773-2273 or the Essex County Prosecutors Office at 973-627-4700.
In addition to counseling services, the University will make attempts to arrange for academic and living accommodations to ensure separation from the alleged offender. For instance, the University may allow a victim to break a housing contract mid-semester but should not be expected to pay for off campus accommodations.
University disciplinary proceedings, as well as special guidelines for cases involving sexual misconduct, are detailed in the Student Handbook. The Handbook provides, in part, that the accused and the victim will each be allowed to choose one university affiliated person who has had no formal legal training to accompany them throughout the hearing. Both the victim and the accused will be informed of the outcome of the hearing. A student found to be responsible for sexual assault may be suspended or dismissed from the University for a first offense. In addition to campus disciplinary proceedings, offenders of the Sexual Assault and Misconduct Policy may also face criminal prosecution in the State of New Jersey. The Department of Public Safety and Security will assist a victim in contacting local law enforcement agencies to initiate an investigation.
Campus Sex Crimes Prevention Act
The Campus Sex Crimes Prevention Act requires sex offenders to report to the appropriate state and local agencies responsible for sex offender registration and document their enrollment as a student, volunteer or acceptance of employment at all educational institutions. The University will be notified of all offenders who fit these notification criteria. Upon notification, Seton Hall University, along with the South Orange Police Department and the Essex County Prosecutors Office, will coordinate the notification of the university community members. The New Jersey State Police website for information on registered sex offenders can be found at: http://www.nj.gov/njsp/info/reg_sexoffend.html

These offenses are compiled procedures in accordance with the provisions of the Jeanne Clery Disclosure of Campus Security Policy and Campus Crime Statistics Act.
The US Department of Education requires all institutions of higher education that receive federal funds to disclose information about crimes occurring on and about their campuses as part of the Jeanne Clery Act. Recently, members of the Division of Student Affairs and Enrollment Services attended a first-ever Clery Act training seminar offered by Security on Campus, Inc. and the US Department of Justice. Utilizing this training, the University undertook an extensive audit of all reported incidents occurring in and about the South Orange and Newark campuses. This audit, for the years 2001 through 2005, resulted in the reclassification of some incidents and a change in the statistics that were previously published by the University.
