Sexual Assault is a non-selective, violent crime that disregards race, age, education level, marital status and economic level. It is painful…it is frustrating…it is humiliating…it is the worst crime a victim will ever live to remember. You do not have to go through this alone.
What to do:
- Go somewhere safe.
- Call someone you trust for support.
- If you wish to report the crime, notify the police immediately. This may give you comfort while protecting others from victimization.
- Get medical attention as soon as possible even if you don’t have injuries; call 911 if necessary.
- Help preserve evidence. Do not wash your self or your clothing. Do not brush your teeth or eat anything.
- Write down as much information regarding the attack as possible.
- Contact the Title IX Coordinator at 806.720.7503.
- Following an assault, you may feel many different emotions. These are not uncommon. Seek guidance from an agency like the LCU Counseling Office or Lubbock Rape Crisis.
Who can help
LCU strongly encourages victims of sexual or domestic assault to seek medical attention as soon as possible, report the incident to the police and the university if they choose to do so, and seek confidential counseling services.
