Info

If you are on campus, call ext. 6666. If you are calling from off campus, dial 770-423- 6666 or for Cobb County emergency and police units, dial 911 Students have the option to notify appropriate law enforcement authorities, including the KSU DPS and the appropriate local police agency, depending on where the assault occurred, and University personnel (Counseling and Psychological Services and Residence Life professional staff) will assist the student in notifying these authorities, if the student requests assistance. KSU has appointed Deidra Dennie as the Equal Employment Opportunity and Title IX coordinator. Students are encouraged to also report sexual misconduct, including sexual assault, to her at ddennie@kennesaw.edu or by phone at 678-797-2904. Remember that most rapists are repeat offenders. Reporting the incident to the police may prevent an attack on another person. 2. Get medical attention. It is important to get medical attention – as soon as possible after the assault – from a hospital emergency room, private physician or the KSU Health Clinic. Treatment may include testing for sexually transmitted diseases and/or medication to prevent pregnancy. Documenting evidence of the sexual assault for use in legal proceedings is also part of the procedure. KSU students who report an incident of sexual assault to the KSU DPS or the other law enforcement agencies may be transported and accompanied to the appropriate community-based hospital for
medical attention. KSU DPS will assist the student in notifying these authorities, if the student requests. 3. Be sure to preserve any evidence that may be necessary to prove the assault occurred. Do not shower/bathe,or douche,or change or launder any clothing worn during the assault until you are examined by a doctor. NOTE: In cases where a sexual assault victim has bathed, showered or otherwise compromised potential evidence, he/ she should still report the assault; as such actions may not prevent prosecution or conduct proceedings from going forward. RESOURCES AND ASSISTANCE FOR VICTIMS OF SEXUAL ASSAULT If you have been sexually assaulted and want counseling, follow-up medical care or mental health assistance, you may contact the KSU Counseling and Psychological Services at 770-423-6600 and the KSU Health Clinic at 770-423-6644. The Office of the Dean of Student Success can provide assistance to make changes in your academic living situation after an assault has occurred.
