Student Right-to-Know and Campus Security Act
On November 8, 1990, the President of the United States signed into law the Student Right-to-Know and Campus
Security Act. Considered a consumer rights statute, the Act requires colleges and universities to report graduation rates
of all students as well as those of student athletes. In addition, schools must report certain campus crime statistics and
campus security procedures. These statistics are available on the Blinn College web site. For questions contact the
Office of the Vice President of Student Services for the Brenham, Schulenburg, and Sealy campuses and the Dean of
Student Services on the Bryan Campus.
