The University encourages Complainants to pursue criminal action for incidents of sexual assault, sexual misconduct, stalking and relationship violence that may also be crimes under state criminal statutes. Contacting law enforcement is the best option to provide physical safety, emotional support, and medical care to the Complainant. It is also the best option to ensure preservation of evidence, which may only exist for a limited period of time, and to begin a timely investigative and remedial response. The University will assist a Complainant, at the Complainant’s request, in contacting local law enforcement and will cooperate with law enforcement agencies if a Complainant decides to pursue the criminal process.
The University’s Policy, definitions, and burden of proof differ from Illinois criminal law. A Complainant may seek resolution through the University’s complaint process, may pursue criminal action, may choose one but not the other, or may choose both. Neither law enforcement’s determination on whether or not to prosecute a Respondent nor the outcome of any criminal prosecution are determinative of whether sexual assault, sexual misconduct or relationship violence has occurred under this Policy. Proceedings under the University’s Sexual Assault, Sexual Misconduct and Relationship Violence Policy may be carried out prior to, simultaneously with, or following civil or criminal proceedings off campus.
