Timely Warning Crime Bulletin: Sexual Assault
The campus has received reports of several sexual assaults that occurred on campus in the late evening or at night between October 31 and Thursday, November 21. There have been three reports of rape, one being on campus at a residence hall party and the other two occurring on campus property outdoors. It is unclear whether all these incidents are connected. All of these incidents are being actively investigated by UCPD.
This Timely Warning crime bulletin is being issued in compliance with the Jeanne Clery Disclosure of Campus Security Policy and Campus Crime Statistics Act (Clery Act). The purpose is to provide preventative information to the campus community to aid members from becoming the victim of a similar crime.
Anyone with information about the investigations can contact UCPD at 831-459-2231 ext. 1 or provide information through the UCPD Tip Line at 831-459-3847. Information can be kept confidential.
Bundles a three-week cluster of reports into a single bulletin rather than issuing one warning per report — a defensible Clery approach when reports surface together
Says plainly 'It is unclear whether all of these incidents are connected,' resisting the temptation to frame a 'serial' threat the evidence does not support
Describes locations only at the category level ('a residence hall party,' 'on campus property outdoors') — no specific building, no victim-identifying detail
Includes a confidential tip line, signaling that the community can help without being forced into the formal report system
No suspect description is offered — consistent with reports where the assailant was known to the survivor or where description would risk identifying the victim
