1Opinion of the Court
SELYA, Senior Circuit Judge.
The Clery Act, 20 U.S.C. § 1092(f) (the Act), requires colleges and universities that participate in federal financial aid programs to notify their constituent communities of certain reported crimes. This case requires us to construe, for the first time at the federal appellate level, the Act’s notification requirements. After analyzing the language and purpose of the Act, charting the dimensions of the plaintiffs claims, and sifting through the factual record, we affirm the district court’s entry of summary judgment in favor of the defendant university.
