| The Victims of Trafficking and
Violence Act of 2000 requires colleges and universities to inform students and
employees how to learn the identity of registered sex offenders on
campus. This law contains the Campus Sex Crimes Prevention
Act which becomes effective October 23, 2002.
Sex offender information is
compiled by the Illinois
State Police. The State Police maintain a website that
allows you to search their sex offender database online. To
learn the identity of registered sex offenders on or near campus,
or anywhere in Illinois, visit the
Sex
Offender Database. Once there, you can search by city,
county, or zip code.
Here's some useful information for
conducting your search:
- The University of Illinois at
Springfield is in Sangamon County.
- The University Zip Code is 62703
