Annual Security Report

The Jeanne Clery Disclosure of Campus Security Policy and Campus Crime Statistics Act (Clery Act) requires an institution to publish specific crime-related information on an annual basis. This report includes information about Florida Coastal School of Law’s security policy and procedures, crime prevention programs, and campus crime statistics. The school must distribute this information to all current students and employees, and upon request, to prospective students and employees.  The policies and procedures are outlined within the Annual Security Report.

For complete crime statistics, please visit the Campus Safety and Security Data Analysis Cutting Tool and search for Florida Coastal.

Parking and Driving on Campus

All students, staff and faculty are expected to adhere to Florida Coastal School of Law’s Parking & Driving on Campus Policy. Please make sure to read the entire document. Any vehicle driven on campus must be registered with Florida Coastal School of Law’s Security. To register your vehicle, please see Maureen Jordan in the Dean’s Suite. The registration is good for one (1) year. You must re-register your vehicle at the beginning of each academic year.

Lockers

To obtain a locker, complete the following steps:

We prefer you use a combination lock.  If you use a key lock you must leave an extra key with Karen Eubanks in Office #374 in the Dean’s Suite.

I.D. Badge/Access Card

An I.D. badge and access card are issued to all members of the Coastal Community.  Both cards must be on your persona and visible at all times while on campus.  

To ensure durability and validity, do not tamper with, punch holes in, or misuse the card and protect it from damage by avoiding magnets.
