Four California colleges and universities are reportedly providing inaccurate data about campus crime.
State Auditor Elaine Howle found that UC Irvine, Santa Clara University, Sonoma State and San Joaquin Delta College reported crime statistics that were inaccurate or incomplete. Some of the auditor's findings include Sonoma State not reporting a sexual assault and Santa Clara having omissions from their crime logs. Howle said that because of these errors, students and staffers may not be able to make informed decisions about their personal safety and security.
