Information
In accordance
to the "Campus Sex Crimes Prevention Act" of 2000, (section
1601 of
Public
Law 106-386) which
amends the
Jacob Wetterling Crimes Against Children and Sexually Violent Offender
Registration Act, the Jeanne Clery Act and the Family
Educational Rights
and Privacy Act of 1974, the Macalester College Safety and Security
Office is
providing a link to the Minnesota State Police Sex Offender Registry. This act requires institutions of higher
education to issue a statement advising the campus community where law
enforcement
information provided by a State concerning registered sex offenders may
be
obtained. It also requires sex offenders
already required to register in a State to provide notice of each
institution of
higher education in that State at which the person is employed, carries
a
vocation, or is a student. In the state
of Minnesota,
convicted sex offenders must register with the Sex Offender and Crimes
Against
Minors Registry maintained by the Department of State Police.
The Minnesota
Predatory Offender Registration and Tracking Program are available via
Internet
pursuant to MN Statute 243.166 Session updates.
Registry information provided under this section shall be used
for the
purposes of the administration of criminal justice, screening of
current or
prospective employees, volunteers or otherwise for the protection of
the public
in general and children in particular. Unlawful
use of the information for purposes of intimidating or harassing
another is
prohibited.
