Sexual Assault means a person subjects another person to sexual penetration, or who forces another person to make a sexual penetration on himself or herself or another, or on a beast, against the will of the victim or under conditions in which the perpetrator knows or should know that the victim is mentally or physically incapable of resisting or understanding the nature of his or her conduct.

How to Reduce the Risk of Sexual Assault

(reproduced from the RAINN web site at http://www.rainn.org)

1. When you go to a party, go with a group of friends.
2. Arrive together, watch out for each other, and leave together.
3. Don't leave your beverage unattended or accept a drink from an open container.
4. Don't allow yourself to be isolated with someone you don't know or trust.
5. Be aware of your surroundings at all times. Trust your instincts.
6. Think about the level of intimacy you want in a relationship, and clearly state your limits.

What Should You Do if You Are Sexually Assaulted?

• Get to a safe place
• Get medical attention immediately
• Do not change your clothes
• Do not bathe or douche
• Do not brush your teeth or use mouthwash
• Do not eat or drink anything
• Do not apply medication
• Do not clean up the crime scene
• Report the incident to the Police

Safety in Numbers and Escorts

When studying late or leaving evening classes it is a good idea to walk with friends and classmates. There is always more safety in groups than a single person walking at night alone. If you feel uncomfortable and would like an escort to your vehicle or dorm room please feel free to contact your faculty member, the Campus Director or, in Elko, the Security Department.

Concerns

If you have concerns about a single person please contact the Campus Director, Safety & Security Director orVice President for Academic and Student Affairs, Title IX Coordinator to discuss the situation. (Click here for contact information)
