Timely Warning — Sexual Assault

DATE: March 28, 2018

On Tuesday, March 27, 2018, Campus Safety received a third-party report of a sexual assault that occurred in the early morning hours of Saturday, March 24, 2018 in a campus residence hall.

The alleged perpetrator has been identified and the case will be investigated and adjudicated as appropriate by the Title IX Coordinator.

All members of the campus community are expected to conduct themselves in a manner that does not infringe upon the rights of others. Members of the College community, guests, and visitors have the right to be free from sexual violence, which includes sexual misconduct. Gustavus Adolphus sponsors many events throughout the year in an effort to provide the campus community with activities, programs, and resources that enhance the quality of student life. Behavior as described in this report threatens our community and devalues the activities and programs. Bystander intervention is one of the most effective ways of reducing incidents that victimize our students.

Anyone with additional information about this incident or a similar incident is encouraged to contact Campus Safety (x8888) or the Title IX Coordinator, Patty Dawson (x6360).
