Sex Offender Registration

National Louis University considers the protection of our community to be a matter of significant importance and intends to keep the community informed about sex offenders.

The Victims of Trafficking and Violence Prevention Act of 2000 requires colleges and universities to inform students and employees about how to learn the identity of registered sex offenders on or near campus. This protocol is updated to comply with the Campus Sex Crimes Prevention Act, which took effect in October 2002.
