Anonymous Reporting

The University maintains a feature to report anonymously through the Interpersonal Incident Report, which allows students or employees to report crimes without providing their names or other identifying information.  The information provided is received by compliance administrators and the Safety Department leadership team at the University. Upon receipt, all reports are followed up on to best of the University's ability, based on information received. Individuals should be aware that reporting anonymously limits the response and support the University may offer.

Information sent through this site is checked daily, however the reporting form SHOULD NOT be used for emergencies that require immediate response or those that are life threatening in nature.
