Anderson Academic Commons and exposed his genitals to people inside the building. The
suspect was described by witnesses as a "white male in his 20s and about six feet tall."
Sexual Assault; Forcible Fondling: Campus Safety has received a report that on Sunday, May
8, 2016 at approximately 2:45am, a student was approached by an unknown male who made
unwanted sexual contact with the student. Forcible fondling is sexual assault. The student
described the suspect as a "white male, 18-20 years old, with brown hair and wearing a dark

At this time, these crimes are not believed to be connected. Both are being investigated
separately by the Department of Campus Safety.
Safety and Security Tips:
Sexual assault is never the fault of the victim. While nothing is failsafe, here are some tips that everyone should
consider:
- Forcing sexual contact on another person without consent is against the law and against university policy. Sexual
contact without consent is sexual assault and is never the victim’s fault.
- Be active in supporting a safe and respectful community. If you see others engaging in disrespectful or inappropriate
actions, speak up and get involved, or contact someone else to assist.
- If you would like more information about how to be a proactive bystander, please participate in a “Be a B.O.S.S.”
training.
- Trust your instincts. If you feel uneasy or sense something is wrong, call for help.
If you’ve been sexually assaulted, tell someone – there are resources to help you. Please visit

-More information on crime prevention and personal safety can be found on the Campus Safety website.
