IWU provides information to students and employees about campus security procedures and encourages them to be responsible for their own security and the security of others. In order to accomplish this goal, students and employees are kept informed about crime prevention strategies through a variety of non-emergency communications channels.
Information on reported crimes that pose serious or continuing threats to the campus community is disseminated through timely warnings and emergency notifications using the RAVE Mobile Alert System via text message, email and social media.
IWU Alert (RAVE Mobile Safety) is the wireless emergency notification system for the Indiana Wesleyan University community.
All faculty, staff and students are automatically enrolled in IWU Alerts using their @indwes.edu email address and cell phone number on file with the university. It is used by IWU to instantly provide mass notification to mobile devices and through email when an urgent situation such as severe weather or another emergency needs to be communicated.

The Jeanne Clery Disclosure of Campus Security Policy and Campus Crime Statistics Act (Clery Act) is a federal mandate requiring all institutions of higher education that participate in the federal student financial aid program to disclose certain timely and annual information about campus crime, and security and safety policies.
The Clery Act affects virtually all public and private IHEs and is enforced by the U.S. Department of Education (ED).
The Clery Act identifies certain categories of students, university employees and contractors as Campus Security Authorities (CSAs) who have federally mandated responsibilities to report Clery Act crimes that are reported to them.
The intent of including non‐law enforcement personnel in the role of CSA is to acknowledge that some community members and students in particular may be hesitant about reporting crime to the police, but may be more inclined to report incidents to other campus‐affiliated individuals.
The law defines the following four categories of CSAs:
Under the Clery Act, a crime is considered "reported" when it is brought to the attention of a CSA or reported directly to law enforcement by a victim, a witness, other third party or even the offender. It doesn’t matter whether or not the crime, are associated with the institution.
If a CSA receives the crime information and believes it was provided in good faith, he or she should document it as a crime report. In “good faith” means there is a reasonable basis for believing that the information is not simply rumor or hearsay.
There are only three locations on campus that can provide confidential services.
A student may report confidentially to:
All other employees are required to report all Clery incidents for Clery statistics and all VAWA (sexual assault, dating violence, domestic violence, stalking) incidents.
Under the Clery Act, a crime is considered "reported" when it is brought to the attention of a CSA or reported directly to law enforcement by a victim, a witness, other third party or even the offender. It doesn’t matter whether or not the crime, are associated with the institution.
Submitting this report will not generate a police report. This report is used to report student conduct violations and criminal incidents for statistical purposes only. Please remember to include as much detail as possible within the form including the date, location, description of the incident, crime classification and all other fields that you have information.
Our institution has a responsibility to notify the campus community about crimes that pose a serious or ongoing threat to the community, and, as such, campus security authorities are obligated by law to report these specific crimes. Even if you are not sure whether an ongoing threat exists, immediately contact us so we are able to make that determination.
