2010 Fall: For The Record

Annual Security and Fire Safety Report, Fall 2010
Produced in compliance with The Jeanne Clery Disclosure of Campus Security Policy and Campus Crime Statistics Act
The University of Denver engages in educational efforts to enhance security. DU and its Department of Campus Safety are committed
to an integrated philosophy of awareness, education, prevention and service. The University provides information on crimes and crime
prevention through various outreach initiatives that include direct programming with students and activities coordinated by Campus
Safety. Newly enrolled students learn about living in the campus community during Discoveries, the undergraduate student orientation
program. Topics include personal safety, crime reporting, emergency procedures, respect for others, alcohol, AIDS awareness and sexual
assault.
The Department of Campus Safety seeks internal and external partnerships to promote and maintain a safe, secure environment
conducive to learning, living and working at the University of Denver. Campus Safety’s crime prevention division, often in conjunction
with other University departments, provides the University community with information and educational opportunities in an effort to
foster a safer campus environment while encouraging members to be responsible for their own security and that of others.
Programs the Department of Campus Safety coordinates include:
• new-student orientation programs that provide crime awareness, prevention and reporting information
• R.A.D. Systems self-defense training, a program of realistic self-defense tactics and techniques for women that is offered to
students, faculty, staff and community members
• annual staff training for University facilities such as residence halls, Driscoll University Center and other departments as requested
• a quarterly information table located on Driscoll Bridge where students can interact with Campus Safety staff and obtain crime
awareness, prevention and victim services materials
• crime alerts and crime notices posted in conspicuous locations to provide
timely warnings to the community about criminal incidents considered a Reporting Crime 2

Additional Reporting Options

Members of the University community are strongly encouraged to report all criminal activity immediately to Campus Safety. Formal
reports of this nature are documented, investigated and referred for disposition.
However, we recognize that in certain situations, individuals who are victims of crime may not wish to disclose certain details of
crimes or their identities. The persons with whom you may discuss all of this with complete confidentiality are the licensed counsel-
ors at the Health and Counseling Center. If you wish only for support and counseling services, please contact a counselor. An on-call
counselor may be reached after hours by dialing 303.871.3000 (1-3000).
While no formal policy exists, when deemed appropriate, counselors may encourage individuals to permit reporting of statistical
information only for inclusion in the University’s annual crime data.
Victims of offenses committed by DU students have several reporting options. These include: 1) reporting to the police for criminal
action, 2) filing a civil lawsuit against the suspect and 3) reporting to campus officials, such as Campus Safety, Citizenship and Com-
munity Standards, Gender Violence Education and Support Services, and Housing and Residential Education for University sanctions
to be considered. You may pursue these options simultaneously, or any one of them separately.
Reporting a crime and cooperating with a law enforcement investigation are necessary for criminal prosecution of a sexual assault
case, but are not required for University sanctions to be brought against a student found responsible by a conduct review board through
Citizenship and Community Standards.
If you are the victim of a crime, you may want to proceed with reporting to both law enforcement and to University officials, or you
may want to report only at the University level. That choice is yours. Questions regarding these processes may be answered by calling
Campus Safety, Citizenship and Community Standards, Gender Violence Education and Support Services, the Denver Police Depart-
ment or other resources listed in For The Record.
In other situations, if a crime occurred that impacts the campus and its community and you wish to be made aware of the available
on- and off- campus resources, have the campus warned and/or have the offense included in statistical data, you may report to other
campus security authorities or service providers. Keep in mind that reports of this nature may not be fully investigated. Further, while
every effort will be made to keep identifying information confidential, confidentiality cannot be guaranteed with reports to anyone on
campus other than licensed counselors at the Health and Counseling Center.
Another valuable resource for reporting sexual assault is the DU Sexual Assault Survivor Advocate Network (SASA). If a campus
community member believes he or she may have been sexually assaulted, and would like to discuss the incident and the various options
and resources that are available, you can contact the DU SASA Network 24/7 throughout the year by calling 303.871.3456 (1-3456). You
may also contact the Gender Violence Education and Support Services office (GVESS) at 303.871.3853 (1-3853) or at Nelson Hall, room
103, Monday through Friday between 8:00 a.m. and 4:30 p.m.
If you would like general information regarding confidential crime reporting, feel free to contact the Victim Services Coordinator,
the DU SASA network, the GVESS office, the Health and Counseling Center and/or Citizenship and Community Standards. See page
27 for a complete list of resources and telephone numbers.

Campus Sex Crimes Prevention Act

The Campus Sex Crimes Prevention Act mandates that convicted sex offenders required to register under state law must also disclose
their association with institutions of higher education when applicable. Specifically affected are those registered sex offenders who
attend, are employed by/at, or volunteer at institutions of post-secondary education.
Inquiries regarding registered sex offenders who reside in the neighborhood or who have disclosed an association with the University
of Denver, as noted above, should be directed to Denver Police Headquarters, 1331 Cherokee St., Denver, Colo. These requests must be
made in person between the hours of 7:30 a.m. and 3:30 p.m., Monday through Friday. Additional information is available by calling
720.913.6050. The Colorado Bureau of Investigation’s convicted sex offender website can be found at http://sor.state.co.us.

Sexual Assault: Facts, Prevention and Reporting

Sexual assault is the umbrella term used to describe sexual contact that
occurs without consent. Even when someone known to the victim perpetrates a
sexual assault, it is a crime. Being assaulted is never the victim’s fault. Nothing a
victim does, says or wears gives anyone the right to assault him or her, sexually
or otherwise. National studies have shown that the first few weeks of a first-year
student’s school year are the most vulnerable time for sexual assault. Acknowl-
edging this, the University of Denver offers sexual assault prevention, awareness
and education programs during the Discoveries orientation and throughout the year.
DU has a Gender Violence Education and Support Services Office (GVESS) that offers
advice, advocacy, information and training. The GVESS office is normally open from 8:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m., Monday
through Friday, in Nelson Hall, room 103. The University also has an on-call team of advocates ready to assist survivors of sexual
assault. You can contact the DU Sexual Assault Survivor Advocate (SASA) Network 24/7 throughout the year by calling 303.871.3456
(1-3456). Campus Safety’s crime prevention community outreach officer is also available to offer prevention materials and to
conduct group educational presentations at residence halls and Greek houses, and to other student and employee groups.
Prevention:
Remember, sexual assault is not just a woman’s issue. All genders are responsible for preventing sexual assault and rape. Suggestions for
men working to end sexual violence include:
• Understand what your partner wants. “No” means no—never assume what your partner wants sexually. Always ask.
• Do not engage in sexual relations with someone who is too drunk to make responsible decisions, has passed out, or is asleep or
unconscious. Legally, this is sexual assault.
• Realize that what you say can have an impact. Casual conversation is the best way to influence peers to prevent an incident that
could hurt others. Silence can be mistaken by your friends as approval to sexist or violent behaviors.
• Report any incident as soon as possible. If you see someone in trouble at a party, do not be afraid to intervene. It is easy to use
your cell phone to notify campus authorities, the police or someone who you know could stop it.
Support any friends who disclose to you they have been assaulted. Believe them and let them make their own decisions. Do not call
authorities without their permission.
Remember:
• You have the right to set limits. Be aware of gender stereotypes such as “being assertive is not feminine” or “it’s macho to score.”
These attitudes get in the way of honest relationships.
• Communicate your limits clearly and verbally.
• Trust your instincts. If a situation does not feel right, get away from it.
• Listen to what your partner is saying. Do not make assumptions.
• Speak up when others joke or talk about their sexual conquests. Let others know where you stand.
• Remember, drugs and alcohol decrease your ability to take care of yourself and make decisions.
Plan ahead:
• First date or blind date? Check your date out with friends. Go to a public place and go with friends.
• Do not leave a party, concert or bar with someone you just met or do not know well.
• Be wary of behavior that makes you feel uncomfortable. If it persists, leave.
• Stand up for yourself. If someone is pressuring you, make it clear that you do not like it.
If you are sexually assaulted, contact Campus Safety at 303.871.3000 (1-3000), the DU SASA Network at 303.871.3456 (1-3456) or the
Gender Violence Education and Support Services Office at 303.871.3853 (1-3853).

The DU SASA Network and Campus Safety can provide immediate assistance and contact resources to help you. The most important
thing a sexual assault survivor can do is to let someone know what happened: Campus Safety, the DU SASA Network, The Gender
Violence Education and Support Services Office, a resident assistant, a graduate resident director, the police, a friend, a rape crisis
center, a hospital, a counselor or someone else you trust. Do not isolate yourself, do not feel guilty and do not try to ignore it. Whether
committed by a stranger or someone you know, sexual assault is a violation of your body and your trust. Remember, it is never your
fault. And, there are people at DU who can help. If you are assaulted:
• Do not shower, wash, douche or change your clothes, even though that may be your immediate reaction. If you choose to press
charges, evidence may still exist if you do not wash. Even if you do not pursue criminal charges initially, preserving this evidence
is crucial in the event that you change your mind later. Physical evidence is extremely important in any criminal prosecution.
• Seek medical attention. You may have internal injuries, and you shouldn’t live with the fear of STDs, AIDS or an unwanted
pregnancy.
• Trained medical staff may also assist you in contacting experienced sexual assault response team members who can help you file
a police report, collect and preserve evidence, and provide victim assistance and rape crisis advocacy services.
• Get counseling to help you deal with your feelings.
If someone you know is sexually assaulted:

• Believe—Tell them you believe what they are saying and you are there to support them.
• Empower—Support your friend, do not tell them what to do. Next steps have to be their decision.
• Connect—Talk about the DU and community resources that can help.

DPD Relationship, Campus Safety Officers’ Authority

Campus Safety strives to maintain a professional and cooperative relationship with the Denver Police Department (DPD). When a
crime occurs within the campus community, Campus Safety serves as the University’s primary liaison with law enforcement officials.
Members of the DU community are encouraged to immediately report suspicious circumstances and crimes occurring on campus to
Campus Safety (see Reporting Crime on page 2). Campus Safety in turn coordinates with Denver police to determine an appropriate
response.
Campus Safety officers are licensed by the City and County of Denver. Officers may detain individuals for disposition by Denver
Police if they have viewed a criminal act or reasonably believe that an individual has violated a city ordinance, or a state or federal law.
Denver Police officers make the final determination regarding violations of law, as well as the disposition of detained persons. Con-
versely, the DPD regularly informs Campus Safety when it investigates a crime or complaint involving student conduct at off-campus
locations.
The University of Denver does not systematically monitor criminal activity in which students or student organizations engage off
campus. However, Campus Safety routinely cooperates with the DPD and other outside police agencies in the investigation of, and
response to, this type of activity when it is brought to the University’s attention.
In the event a crime occurs on campus and is reported to both DPD and Campus Safety, investigations may be assigned and com-
pleted by both agencies. As in all matters, Campus Safety works collaboratively with DPD to investigate crimes occurring on campus.
Assuming criminal charges have or may result, Campus Safety will always defer to DPD’s authority in an effort to maintain evidentiary
integrity and the best possible outcome. In these cases, Campus Safety’s investigation will be coordinated with, or completed immedi-
ately subsequent to, the DPD investigation.
– Campus Safety
Safewalks
Campus Safety, in cooperation with other departments, personnel and students, conducts periodic “safewalks” to identify and resolve
potential environmental safety issues. Inadequate lighting, physical obstructions and other potential safety hazards related to crime
prevention through environmental design and maintenance are noted so that changes can be made.
In addition to safewalks, the community is encouraged to report safety and security issues and concerns to Campus Safety at
303.871.2334 (1-2334) on a day-to-day basis.
Campus Facilities—Security and Access

Normal office operating hours for the University of Denver are 8 a.m. to
4:30 p.m., Monday through Friday. Administrative buildings are typically
secured from 5 p.m. to 7 a.m. on weekdays, and 24 hours a day on week-
ends unless special arrangements are coordinated through the Department
of Campus Safety at 303.871.2334 (1-2334). Classroom buildings are typically
secured from 10 p.m. to 7 a.m., Monday through Saturday and 24 hours on
Sunday. Exceptions to these times may be made by contacting Campus Safety
as needed.
Some student services buildings such as student centers, libraries and
computer labs are open extended hours and staffed during their hours of
operation. Depending on the building and its requirements, physical security
mechanisms including locks and keys, card-entry systems, and/or electronic
alarms on doors and windows are in place as well as closed-circuit security
camera systems monitored by Campus Safety.
Residence halls are secured at 8 p.m. each night, access to residential liv-
ing spaces are locked 24 hours a day and require ID card access. Non DU
guests are required to be checked in at the desk by the DU host. The front
desks of these facilities are staffed 24 hours a day. The main entrances and
bicycle racks for these buildings are also monitored by closed-circuit security
camera systems. On-campus apartment buildings are generally accessible
only by residents with keys, and they are typically locked 24 hours a day.
Outside phones are provided for visitors to contact residents for entry. Be
safety and security conscious. To report safety or security concerns such as
broken lights, doors or windows, contact the Campus Safety non-emergency
number at 303.871.2334 (1-2234).

Victim Services
A Campus Safety officer serves as the Victim Services coordinator and provides follow-up contact with crime victims. Generally,
victims of crimes against persons (i.e., sexual assaults, robbery, aggravated assaults) are contacted by phone or in person. Victims of
property crimes (i.e., thefts) generally are contacted via e-mail or letter.
While the department does not have a victim advocate, the Victim Services coordinator provides victims with resources and infor-
mation regarding available victim advocates and other service providers.
The University of Denver also has a staff member dedicated to providing support and advocacy for survivors of sexual assault in the
GVESS office. GVESS offers education and training across campus. If you or someone you know would like to report dating or domes-
tic violence, stalking or sexual assault you may contact GVESS at 303.871.3853 (1-3853) or at Nelson Hall, room 10, Monday through
Friday between 8:00 a.m. and 4:30 p.m. GVESS can also help if you are unsure whether you have been sexually assaulted or if you would

Alcohol Abuse Education

Alcohol & Marijuana Educational Groups & Individual Assessments
The Health & Counseling Center (HCC) offers a variety of groups and assessment options for students referred for alcohol or other drug
counseling and for those students concerned about their use or the problematic use of a friend. Currently the HCC offers educational
groups regarding alcohol use and marijuana use. Additionally, the HCC offers (based on demand) a processing group for individuals
who find their relationship with alcohol or other drugs problematic in college or are concerned about their sobriety/recovery while
in college. For individuals wishing to have a more in depth assessment of their use, the HCC offers Brief Alcohol Screenings and
Interventions for College Students (known as BASICS). For additional information, visit http://www.du.edu/DUhealth or call the HCC

Missing Students
Members of the University community who believe that a student residing in on-campus housing is missing should immediately
contact Campus Safety at 303.871.2334 (1-2334). They may also notify the student’s Resident Assistant, Resident Director, Graduate
Resident Director or the residence hall’s Desk Assistant. Those who suspect a student living in a fraternity or sorority may be missing
should contact Campus Safety or the Director or Assistant Director of Campus Activities. Once notified of a potentially missing stu-
dent, Campus Safety will initiate an investigation to determine the student’s status. Methods employed by Campus Safety to determine
if a student is missing may include, but are not limited to: attempting to contact the missing student utilizing phone and email contact
information they have provided the University, retrieving their ID photo from the Pioneer Card office, checking their class schedule
and attempting to contact them in class, contacting their parents, their roommate, friends, etc.
Should Campus Safety’s investigation determine that the student is in fact missing, and has been missing for more than 24 hours, the
Denver Police Department and the student’s designated missing person emergency contact will be notified. If the missing student is
under the age of 18 and is not an emancipated individual, Campus Safety will notify the student’s parent or legal guardian immediately
after the student has been determined to be missing more than 24 hours.
Students living in on-campus housing are directed to designate a missing person contact on the “Personal Data and Key Card Form”
when they first check in. This contact person is separate from the emergency contact person also designated on the form and shall be
kept confidential. In the event the student is suspected to be missing their missing person contact will be contacted and not their emer-
gency contact. Students may opt to have their missing person contact be the same as their emergency contact person.

Notification to Students of Educational Records and Student

Information Rights and Policies
The Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act (FERPA) affords students certain rights with respect to their education records. These
rights are:
1. The right to inspect and review the student’s education records within 45 days of the day the University receives a request for access.
Students should submit a request form to the registrar that identifies the record(s) they wish to inspect. The registrar will arrange
access and notify the student of the time and place where the records may be inspected. If the registrar does not maintain the records,
the registrar will advise the student of the correct official to whom the request should be addressed.
2. The right to request the amendment of education records that the student believes are inaccurate or misleading. Students may ask
the University to amend a record that they believe is inaccurate or misleading. They should write the University official responsible
for the record, clearly identify the part of the record they want changed, and specify why it is inaccurate or misleading. If the University
decides not to amend the record as requested by the student, the University will notify the student of the decision and advise the
student of his or her right to a hearing regarding the request for amendment. Additional information regarding the hearing
procedures will be provided to the student when notified of the right to a hearing. The student may place a statement in the record
commenting on the contested information or stating why he or she disagrees with the information. Whenever the University
subsequently discloses the record to which the statement relates, the statement will be included with the record.
3. The right to consent to disclosures of personally identifiable information contained in the student’s education records, except to the
extent that FERPA authorizes disclosure without consent. (See “Disclosure.”)
4. The right to file a complaint with the U.S. Department of Education concerning alleged failures by the University to comply with the
requirements of FERPA. The name and address of the office that administers FERPA is:
Family Policy Compliance Office
U.S. Department of Education
400 Maryland Avenue, S.W. Additional information is available at
Washington, DC 20202-4605 http://www.du.edu/registrar/general/privacypolicy.html.
Directory Information
The law provides that “Directory Information” may be released without the consent of the student. The University of Denver designates
the following student information as Directory Information: The student’s full name, addresses, telephone numbers, e-mail addresses,
photographic images, date and place of birth, major field of study, full- or part-time status, class (e.g., graduate, sophomore, junior),
participation in officially recognized activities and sports, weight and height of members of athletic teams, dates of attendance, antici-
pated date of graduation, degrees and awards received, and the most recent previous educational agency or institution attended by the
student.
Students may block disclosure of Directory Information by submitting a “Request to Prevent Disclosure of Directory Information”
form (available from the Office of the Registrar) to the Office of the Registrar, University Hall, G33.
Disclosure
Education records and personally identifiable information obtained from those records may be disclosed without the student’s consent
to school officials with legitimate educational interests. A school official is a person employed by the University in an administrative,
supervisory, academic, research or staff position (including law enforcement unit personnel and health staff); a person or company with
whom the University has contracted (such as an attorney, auditor or collection agent); a person serving on the board of trustees; or a
student serving on an official committee, such as a disciplinary or grievance committee, or assisting another school official in perform-
ing his or her tasks. A school official has a legitimate educational interest if the official needs to review an education record in order to
fulfill his or her institutional duties.
Parents of dependent students (as defined by the Internal Revenue Code) may have access to student records. Parents need to complete
a “Parental Request for Disclosure of Educational Records” form during the autumn quarter in each year of the student’s attendance,
available from and to be submitted to the Office of the Registrar. Parents may be notified if a dependent student under 21 years of age
is found responsible for a violation involving use or possession of alcohol or controlled substances, is placed on judicial probation, or
is suspended or dismissed.
A student’s record may be released in compliance with a court order or subpoena. The Registrar or another official will make a reason-
able effort to notify the student in advance of compliance. Student information may be released for health and emergency reasons.
Requests
Questions about these policies and procedures may be directed to the Office of the Registrar at 303.871.4095 (1-4095). Request forms

Question, Persuade and Refer (QPR ) Program

DU’s Health and Counseling Center offers the Question, Persuade and Refer program for suicide prevention on campus. QPR is an
intervention taken when warning signs are apparent in someone known to a QPR-trained person. QPR training is designed for EVERY-
ONE. Eighty percent of the people who complete suicide are NOT in mental health treatment at the time of their death. It is, therefore,
imperative for all members of the DU community to recognize the warning signs of suicide, to know how to talk to someone who
appears to be at risk, and to know how to get that person the help they need. Make plans to attend an upcoming QPR training now.
Contact the Health and Counseling Center at 303.871.2205 (1-2205) to find out when the next QPR training will be held.

Fire Safety Report
Fire Safety Statement

The University of Denver, Department of Campus Safety maintains compliance of fire and life-safety standards in all buildings in
accordance with the National Fire Protection Association’s (NFPA) 72 regulations. The compliance involves annual inspections of all
fire detection systems (smoke detectors, heat sensors, horn strobe devices, etc.) and fire protection systems (sprinklers systems, fire
extinguishers, kitchen hood systems, etc.). In addition to fire inspections, emergency egress and relocation drills are conducted with
sufficient frequency to familiarize occupants with drill procedures. Fire evacuation drills are conducted three times per academic year
in all residential facilities and one to two times per calendar year in all other facilities where required.
