campus crime  

Définition

  • Campus crime—illegal behavior occurring within the confines of postsecondary institutional boundaries—involves three important contexts: the legal, the social, and the security. The legal context involves judicial and legislative efforts to address campus crime, the social context includes efforts to accurately measure the extent and nature of campus crime while also identifying its major correlates, and the security context includes efforts of campus law enforcement and security to reduce/ control campus crime and address new challenges, including those posed by high-tech crimes such as intrusions of university computer networks.
