In this second of a two-part episode, John breaks down the U.S. Department of Education’s new Clery Act compliance guidance. Recall that in Part 1, John discussed the context for the announcement – the developments leading up to the Department’s drastic reversal of its longstanding guidance. Referencing that context in Part 2, John analyzes the new guidance, discusses what it means, and suggests what schools might expect to see in the Clery compliance and auditing world in the near future.
