The present study examined the utilization of Clery Act information by college students. Results from 107 students indicated that awareness of the Clery Act and knowledge of crime log information was lacking. Using an experimental design, study participants demonstrated potential benefits from exposure to information about campus crimes. This suggests that to further improve student safety, administrators may find it beneficial to focus on initiatives aimed at increasing perceived self-risk.
