UNT Clery Report for 2010

Here is a link to the current Clery Report for the University of North Texas. In it you will find the annual crime statistics from 2007 to 2009. As stated in the report's Policy for Preparing the Annual Disclosure of Crime Statistics, the information provided in the Clery Report should include not only incidents officially recorded by the UNT Police but also by campus officials to ensure the most complete statistics. However it does appear that reporting incidents, anonymous or otherwise, is not in any way compulsory. Campus officials are trained to encourage students to report crime to the UNTPD either voluntarily or confidentially, should it suit "the best interest of the client".

Please, make sure to go through the Clery Report yourself- it contains valuable information about  UNT campus policies!


If you have experienced or are experiencing any problems in dealing with the UNTPD or any campus officials or feel your rights have been violated, remember to contact us! If you wish to remain anonymous let us know, though we may want to contact you to get your story. Our goal is to empower you with knowledge and a public voice.

Mission Statement

We are a group of students concerned that the UNT police have behaved inappropriately in regard to sexual assault and have fostered an overall attitude of disrespect towards the student body. We want this blog to be a source of information on students' rights, as well as a place for students to speak out about police misconduct. We hope to serve as an informal, public archive of student complaints. If you would like to share your story, resources, or advice, please email us at unt.sfpa@gmail.com. We will publish it anonymously, and attempt to share appropriate resources in the hope that we can help people in similar situations. We only ask that the comments are about police abuse or misconduct, not simply technicalities about your case. Together we can work towards building a community with an accountable police force.
