                               RESOLUTION


 
 Expressing the sense of the Congress that the Department of Education 
 should play a more active role in monitoring and enforcing compliance 
  with the provisions of the Higher Education Act of 1965 related to 
                             campus crime.

Whereas crime on our Nation's college campuses is a growing concern among 
        students, parents, and educators;
Whereas Congress passed the Student Right to Know and Campus Security Act in 
        1990 so that students and parents would have access to information with 
        respect to crimes occurring on college campuses;
Whereas Congress intended that information on crime be provided so that students 
        could take steps to protect themselves from becoming victims;
Whereas Congress was particularly concerned with the timely reporting to 
        students instances of violent crimes occurring on campus; and
Whereas questions have been raised with respect to compliance with the Campus 
        Security Act and enforcement by the Department of Education: Now, 
        therefore, be it
    Resolved, That in order for students to have information vital for 
their own safety on our Nation's college campuses, it is the sense of 
the Congress that the Department of Education should make the 
monitoring of compliance and enforcement of the provisions of section 
485(f) of the Higher Education Act of 1965 with respect to compiling 
and disseminating required crime statistics and campus policies a 
priority.
