Sexual assaults, including rape, are serious crimes of violence in which the assailant, by threat or physical force, involves or attempts to involve the victim in involuntary sexual conduct. The College annually sponsors several activities and speakers on the subject of sexual assault in addition to providing literature on request. Literature is also available through the Counseling, Health & Wellness Center in the lower level of Donnelly Center. If you are the victim of a sexual assault, you should immediately contact your Area Coordinator, Associate Vice President for Student Affairs, or the Department of Campus Safety for medical and safety assistance. You should also attempt to preserve any potential evidence where the assault took place.
 
All reports of sexual assault will be taken confidentially and investigated fully. Should allegations lead to formal on-campus disciplinary proceedings, both the accused and their accuser may have others present at their hearing and both will be informed of the outcome. Sanctions for on-campus convictions can result in expulsion. Victims of sexual assault will have the opportunity to notify local police if they choose and can be assisted by campus officials. Victims will be notified of any on-campus and local counseling and mental health services and medical services, and will be given the opportunity to change their living arrangements if alternatives are reasonably available.
 
Sexual assault includes, but is not limited to, forcing, threatening to force, coercing, or deceiving another to engage in sexual activity. Sexual activity includes, but is not limited to, sexual penetration, touching of the genital area, groin, inner thigh, buttocks, or breast. The definition of sexual assault includes any of the following:

1. Force or coercion is used to accomplish the sexual contact without the person's consent
2. The victim is mentally incapacitated by being rendered temporarily incapable of appraising or controlling his/her conduct due to the influence of alcohol, other drugs or other substances consumed by or administered to that person with or without his/her consent.
3. The victim is physically helpless by being unconscious, asleep or for any other reason is physically unable to communicate unwillingness to act.
4. The actor knew or should have known that the victim was mentally incapacitated or physically helpless.

In compliance with the "Jeanne Clery Disclosure of Campus Security Policy and Campus Crime Statistics Act of 1990," numerous efforts are made to advise members of the Aquinas Community on a timely basis about crime occurring on campus or in neighboring areas. These efforts include the following:

• Annual Report: A comprehensive annual report of crime-related information is compiled and published.
• Special Bulletins: When circumstances warrant, bulletins will be posted in all buildings on campus, as well as on the Campus Safety homepage, with special crime-alert information.
• Student Newspaper: On occasion, articles will be published with a summary of recent incidents.
• Monitoring of Crimes Reported to Local Police: Continuous monitoring of incidents reported to the local police that have occurred in the local area to better inform the Aquinas community of potential threats.

 

It is always a good idea to review procedures for these types of situations. Please share this information with other people in your area.
