When physical descriptors are included in communication to the Augsburg community, it is done so because they may reasonably assist in identifying the perpetrator of the incident. ÂÌ²èÖ±²¥ uses perceived race and gender descriptors that are provided about a suspect only when additional characteristics (beyond clothing) are also available. Such descriptors are used in an attempt to provide the campus community with important information. However, the University recognizes that race and gender are personal identity attributes that cannot always be accurately perceived by others, and that any reported information may not be accurate.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>In compliance with the \u201cTimely Warning\u201d provision of the federal Jeanne Clery Campus Security Act, ÂÌ²èÖ±²¥ Department of Public &#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":499,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[7,12],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-53081","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-crime-alerts","category-safety-tips"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.augsburg.edu\/dps\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/53081","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.augsburg.edu\/dps\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.augsburg.edu\/dps\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.augsburg.edu\/dps\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/499"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.augsburg.edu\/dps\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=53081"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/www.augsburg.edu\/dps\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/53081\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":53083,"href":"https:\/\/www.augsburg.edu\/dps\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/53081\/revisions\/53083"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.augsburg.edu\/dps\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=53081"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.augsburg.edu\/dps\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=53081"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.augsburg.edu\/dps\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=53081"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
