UCSD bombshell

Ricardo Ambriz died at UCSD last year from a drug overdose.

Last July, auditors for the University of California dropped a bombshell on the San Diego campus. Following the May death of undergraduate computer science student Ricardo “Ricky” Ambriz after a Sun God Festival drug overdose, state investigators called out the school for violating the federal Clery Act, which governs crime reporting at the nation’s universities. The audit found that, even as the school’s crime rate soared, only 35 percent of the work of a single employee was spent on Clery duties.

“While the UCSD Police Department has made effective use of its limited resources, the proliferation of mandated compliance requirements, growth in campus population, and increase in reportable incidents have created a need to increase the resources and scope of the Clery Coordinator,” the audit concluded.

It took awhile, but the university is now advertising for a “Clery Compliance Officer,” salary to be “commensurate with experience.” Desired qualifications include “A Law Degree (JD) from an accredited law school, or an equivalent combination of education and experience.”
