Sexual Assault/Sexual Abuse

Sexual assault and sexual abuse are particularly traumatic crimes and demand a special response. All members of the University community should be aware that sexual assault and sexual abuse are prohibited by law and that such conduct threatens the security of the University community. The University of Chicago Sexual Assault Policy and resources for the University community can be found at uchicago.edu/sexual assault.

Domestic Violence

Rape, physical assault, or stalking by a current or former spouse or a cohabiting partner are forms of domestic violence. If you are a victim of domestic violence on campus, contact the University of Chicago Police at 702-8181, or 123 from a campus phone. If off campus, dial 911 for the Chicago Police Department. You can also contact the City of Chicago’s Domestic Violence Helpline at 877-TOENDDV (863-6338).
