Sexual Misconduct
How to Report Sexual Misconduct:
The University of New Mexico urges any individual who has experienced sexual violence or misconduct, or has knowledge about an incident of sexual misconduct, to make an official report to the Office of Equal Opportunity (OEO) at 505-277-5251 or University Police (UNMPD) at 505-277-2241. However, UNM recognizes that some individuals may want to speak with someone anonymously about reporting options and support before deciding whether to report the incident to the police or the Office of Equal Opportunity for investigation.
Individuals who experience sexual misconduct are strongly encouraged to understand the various reporting requirements of University entities in order to make the best decision for their circumstance.
Whether or not anonymity is requested, information about sexual violence and misconduct will be treated confidentially and only be shared on a need-to-know basis, and as authorized under University policy and applicable federal and state law.
