Abstract
This study provided a review of literature relevant to juvenile sex offenders and their inclusion at higher education institutions (HEI's). Additionally, this study looked at five institutional policies governing the procedures for handling juvenile sex offenders enrolling at the institution and sought to determine if the policies corresponded with insights from the literature. The results of this study indicate a majority of the institutional policies follow insights in the literature on peer involvement, but all of the policies differ from the literature and either mandate or allow for community notification. Further, this study provides recommendations to university administrators for writing institutional policies that balance the right to an education and the need for safety of juvenile sex offenders and campus communities.
