Overview of This Information Collection

    (1) Type of Information Collection: Reinstatement of the Survey of 
Campus Law Enforcement Agencies (SCLEA), with changes, a previously 
approved collection for which approval has expired.
    (2) The Title of the Form/Collection: 2021 Survey of Campus Law 
Enforcement Agencies (SCLEA).
    (3) The agency form number, if any, and the applicable component of 
the Department sponsoring the collection: The form number for the 
questionnaire is CJ-42. The applicable component within the Department 
of Justice is the Bureau of Justice Statistics, in the Office of 
Justice Programs.
    (4) Affected public who will be asked or required to respond, as 
well as a brief abstract: Respondents will be campus law enforcement 
agencies (LEAs) serving public and private 2- and 4-year postsecondary 
educational institutions with a full-time enrollment of 1,000 or more 
students. Periodically since 1995, BJS has collected information about 
the personnel, policies, and practices of campus law enforcement 
agencies via the Survey of Campus Law Enforcement Agencies (SCLEA). 
This survey has been used to produce nationally representative 
estimates on campus law enforcement personnel, duties, administration, 
technology, officer selection, officer training, equipment, and 
jurisdiction. The survey instrument was reviewed by practitioners and 
subject matter experts to update it from the 2011 form and ensure it 
covers current topics of interest to campus law enforcement while 
reducing respondent burden. BJS plans to publish the information 
collected in a report and archive the data for public use.
    (5) An estimate of the total number of respondents and the amount 
of time estimated for an average respondent to respond: An agency-level 
survey will be sent to approximately 1,860 campus LEA respondents. The 
expected burden placed on these respondents is about 1 hour per 
respondent.
    (6) An estimate of the total public burden (in hours) associated 
with the collection: There is an estimated 1,860 total burden hours 
associated with this collection.
