49-7-2206. Crime records to be kept by colleges and universities.
Each institution of higher education that maintains either a police or security department comprised of state, private or contract employees shall make, keep and maintain a daily log, written in a form that can be easily understood, recording in chronological order all crimes against persons or property reported to its police or security department, the date, time and general location of the crimes and, if an arrest has been made, the names and addresses of all persons arrested and charges against the persons arrested. This section shall not be construed to require an institution to identify in its log, unless otherwise provided by law, the names of the persons reporting the crime, the victim or victims, any witnesses or suspects who have not been arrested or other information relating to any investigation of the crime. All entries in the daily logs shall, unless otherwise provided by state or federal law, be open to inspection without charge to the public during regular business hours.
