Sexual Assault and Sexual Misconduct

TO: ALL STUDENTS

FROM: DEAN OF STUDENTS


UCLA will not tolerate sexual assault or sexual misconduct. Where there is probable cause to believe a student has committed a sexual assault or has engaged in sexual misconduct, disciplinary action will be pursued. Sanctions may include Dismissal from the University.

IF YOU HAVE BEEN SEXUALLY ASSAULTED:

Take care of your safety and health needs.

Immediately call the Police Department. If possible, call the UC Police Department at (310) 825-1491 or 911.

Get medical attention. Campus police will provide transportation to the Santa Monica Hospital Emergency Room for emergency medical treatment and evidence collection. A counselor from the Santa Monica Rape Treatment Center will be available at the time, free of charge.

Utilize Campus and Community Support services.

Contact a Rape Services Consultant. Rape Services Consultants (RSC) are available through the Center for Women and Men. RSCs have expertise in working with people who have been sexually assaulted. They can discuss options and alternatives, help identify the most appropriate support services, and provide information about medical care, psychological counseling, academic assistance, legal options, how to file a police report, and how to file a complaint through the Office of the Dean of Students. RSCs are available to assist any UCLA student regardless of where or when the assault occurred. For assistance, contact the Center for Women and Men at (310) 206-8240 or come to B44 Student Activities Center and ask to speak to an RSC.
