In 2019, Senate Bill 212 was passed which requires public and private universities to publicly share report of certain incidents, including sexual assault and harassment, dating violence or stalking. They must also make public the number of reports and investigations, the result of the investigations, any disciplinary action taken and the number
of reports in which disciplinary action was not taken.
