Message from the President

Dear Member of the NYU Community:

The safety of our stu-

dents, faculty, staff, and

visitors is a top priority

for New York Univer-

sity. We are dedicated

to maintaining a cam-

pus environment where

academic excellence

can be achieved unbur-

dened by fears for our

personal well-being.

Our most important

resource in this effort

is our public safety per-

sonnel. We are fortu-

nate have a large and

well-trained corps of

security professionals—

our public safety offi-

cers—to whom we can confidently turn to for all types of

emergencies.

Our Public Safety Department is led by Jules Mar-

tin, a former three-star chief of the New York City Police

Department who is supported by a management team

that includes several senior law enforcement profession-

als. Under his leadership, more than 350 full-time officers

and personnel operate 24/7 as the first-line protectors of

the NYU community. Through an extensive training regi-

men, our officers are kept abreast of best practices in the

security field, enabling them to identify any issues that

could impact the well being of the NYU community. Our

Public Safety officers also offer orientation and education

programs to the members of our community to ensure their

safety as they navigate our campus and the city.

Our Public Safety officers are an ever present force on

our campus, but we are fortunate that our city is protected

by the greatest police department in the world—the New

York Police Department. It is widely recognized that there

is no finer law enforcement organization and, through its

efforts, crime has been dramatically reduced in New York

City in recent years to levels not seen in decades. The NYU

community is one of the beneficiaries of this major achieve-

ment and our own neighborhood is among the safest in

America’s safest large city. The NYU Public Safety Depart-

ment enjoys a strong partnership with the New York Police

Department that extends from the local precinct com-

manders to the highest level of the senior ranks at NYPD

headquarters.

The diligence of our Public Safety officers was put on

display last fall when Superstorm Sandy left Lower Manhat-

tan, including much of the NYU campus, without power.

Public Safety officers worked tirelessly with University staff

and volunteers to minimize inconveniences and ensure that

NYU remained a safe and secure environment throughout

the emergency.

We all know that the world can be an uncertain place—

the memory of 9/11 is never far from our hearts. But I am

proud that NYU has a long and exemplary history of main-

taining highest standards through its public safety resourc-

es and its relationships with law enforcement agencies. We

remain committed to protecting the safety of the students,

faculty, staff, and all those who visit our campus.

2 | 2013 Campus Security and Fire Safety Report

New York University

Department of Public Safety

has a clear and unambiguous

mission: to create a safe

and secure environment for

students, faculty, staff and

visitors across our Global

Network University. To meet

or exceed expectations,

we provide a number of

programs supported by a

diverse team of dedicated and highly experienced

security professionals. The department consists of

approximately 330 uniform officers led by a team

that brings a wealth of multi-disciplinary experience

from both the public and private sectors.

While we have an outstanding security staff,

we cannot do it alone. We have built a strong

and strategic partnership with federal, state and

local law enforcement agencies that are highly

responsive to the needs across our global network.

Although we are part of the greater Greenwich

Village community, we provide a visible presence

in and around the campus as uniform officers are

seen on post, on patrol or traveling to and from

their assignments.

It is well known that New York City continues to be

one of the safest large cities in the United States.

New York University is located in Greenwich

Village, one of the safest neighborhoods in NYC.

New York City Police Department statistics have

shown a 43.5% reduction in serious crime over the

last 12 years in the areas where NYU has facilities,

and the commitment to maintain a safe presence

continues.

This past October, Superstorm Sandy had an

unprecedented impact on areas of the NYC

metropolitan area. Lower Manhattan, including the

NYU campus, lost power in many buildings. Other

challenges ensued. But Public Safety, working

tirelessly with University administrators, staff and

volunteers, successfully minimized inconveniences,

and maintained a safe and secure environment

for the resident students and employees who

remained in university housing during and

immediately after the storm.

The following highlights some of the programs

designed to achieve our mission, vision, and

security goals:

NYU is truly a Global University. With 16 portal

campuses or global study abroad sites on

nearly every continent, and additional program

affiliations worldwide, the role of Public Safety

has progressed beyond the Washington Square

campus. Abu Dhabi is currently preparing to

transition from its interim site to a new campus on

Saadiyat Island in early 2014, with the opening of

their campus in the Fall of 2014. NYU Public Safety

has played a significant role in the design of the

security infrastructure and development of the

Public Safety staffing needs. The past academic

year also marked the first year for NYU’s sites in

Washington, D.C., and Australia. As NYU expands

it global footprint, NYU Public Safety continues

to assess security and strategies of every site to

meet the needs and demands of an ever-changing

landscape.

Campus Safety Training. The recent tragedies at

Sandy Hook Elementary schools and at the Boston

Marathon reflect the senseless violence that

can occur without notice. To better prepare the

University community to recognize and address

potential disruptive behaviors, Public Safety is

developing a series of training initiatives.

Emergency Notifications continues to be a top priority at NYU. Public Safety has the ability to

notify our community in a matter of minutes. The

system is tested at least once each semester.

Each year, more than 4,000 NYU students, faculty, and staff travel abroad for NYU-sponsored programs on six continents. NYU

has implemented NYU Traveler, a web-based

application that provides the NYU community

with a secure means of entering and updating

travel itineraries, contact numbers, and flight or

other transportation information. NYU Traveler

also provides authorized University personnel with

up-to-date information enabling them to locate

and contact students, faculty, and staff abroad in

the event of an emergency.

Campus Transportation. During the past

academic year, we successfully transported

over 650,000 student faculty, staff, and visitors

within the borough of Manhattan. Our University

transportation services consist of scheduled routes

from early morning until night, and on-call “safe

rides” during late-night hours. This was the third

year of the University’s relationship with Academy

Bus, LLC, which provides transportation services,

including a new web-based GPS system where

individuals can see in real time the location of

any NYU bus or Safe Ride van. As we have done

in the past, we will continue to assess ridership

trends and customer feedback to determine route

adjustments.

Safety in The City. The department has created

educational programs and materials on current

safety issues, and also highlight good security

practices to keep students out of harm’s way.

Allaying parent’s concerns about the safety of

their children is a priority as well. A parent’s fact

sheet covering several commonly asked ques-

tions is available on the NYU Department of Public

Safety website: http://www.nyu.edu/life/safety-health-wellness/be-safe/public-safety/crime-prevention.html.

Regards,

Jules A. Martin

Vice President, Global Security & Crisis Management

Department of Public Safety

Message from the Vice President for the Department of Public Safety

Message from the NYC Police Department Commissioner

Through the hard work

and conscientiousness

of the men and women

of the New York Police

Department, New York

City is not only the

greatest city in the world

but the safest large city

in the U.S. Thanks to the

NYPD’s dedicated and

innovative policing, New

Yorkers — whether long-time residents, students

in our colleges and universities, or visitors passing

through on holiday or on business — today enjoy

a level of safety that has not been experienced for

decades.

Like the city it serves, the NYPD is both local and

global in scope. While maintaining a vigorous

approach to the traditional emphases, modes, and

techniques of law enforcement, we have since

2001 also taken on tasks not previously associated

with municipal policing, including the creation of

intelligence and counter-terrorism capabilities.

Our global initiatives enable us to be pro-active

in gathering information and implementing new

measures to keep our city safe. We believe the

efforts undertaken by the NYPD since 2001 are in

the forefront of shaping police practices to address

21st century challenges without sacrificing on our

traditional law enforcement priorities; the result

is a city in which both traditional crime remains

low and new threats to safety are evaluated and

confronted before they reach our streets.

Regardless of whether the focus is on the

traditional or the transformational, safety and

security is most effective when there is a robust

partnership between citizens, government

agencies, and private institutions. In New York,

we have forged especially effective partnerships

with the public safety departments of our city’s

colleges and universities, many of which are led

by former senior police officials. Their officers

act as important and additional trained eyes and

ears, and they make a significant contribution to

both the emergency readiness of our city and in

keeping our city and its citizens safe. Our colleges

and universities are among the institutions of

which New York is most proud; they are magnets

for the human talent that keeps New York

vigorous and innovative. As Commissioner, I am

strongly committed to providing effective police

services to all communities in our city. New York

is blessed with the finest, most admired, and most

emulated police department in the world, and I

am determined to build upon and expand this

Department’s existing achievements in reducing

crime and enhancing personal safety. At the New

York Police Department, we consider it a special

trust and sacred duty to keep all the residents of

this great city safe.

2013 Campus Security and Fire Safety Report | 3

Security for New York University is

provided by the NYU Department

of Public Safety (Public Safety), in

cooperation with the New York City Police

Department (NYPD). Under the leadership

of the Vice President for Global Security and

Crisis Management, Public Safety comprises

a security staff of 350 members, of which

over 330 are uniformed officers and super-

visors, and management personnel. The

department operates 24 hours a day, serv-

ing 75 on-campus and non-campus loca-

tions providing vehicular and foot patrols,

emergency response, building security, and

safe rides.

Public Safety officers have the same

authority on University property as all own-

ers of property, which allows for reasonable

detention of individuals suspected of crimi-

nal activity. When not on University prop-

erty, Public Safety officers have no authority

beyond that of private citizens; they use

citizen arrest procedures as necessary.

Public Safety maintains a professional

relationship with local, state and federal

law enforcement agencies. Public Safety

personnel work closely with the NYPD in

the following Manhattan precincts: the Fifth

(Lower East Side), the Sixth (Greenwich

Village), the Ninth (Broadway to the East

River), the Tenth (West Side), the Thirteenth

(East Side), and the Seventeenth (Upper

East Side, all locations of NYU facilities.

While there is no formal memorandum

of understanding between NYU and the

NYPD, regular communication takes place

between members of Public Safety and

individual precincts, borough command,

specialized units and the Office of the Police

Commissioner.

NYU’s main campus at Washington

Square is located in Greenwich Village,

which historically has been one of New

York’s lowest-crime neighborhoods. In

recent years, NYU has initiated a wide

range of measures to expand its safety

and protection services for the benefit

of all members of the NYU community —

students, faculty and staff. The security

services provided by NYU include:

• Mobile patrol

• Foot patrols by NYU security officers to

monitor routes traveled by students in

the evening

• A Victim Assistance Program assisting

students who are victims of relationship

violence, sexual assault, stalking and

other crimes

• Orientation programs including safety

seminars, crime prevention pamphlets

and brochures

• University Transportation between

Washington Square and outlying

residence halls, College of Dentistry and

School of Medicine

• Overnight on demand safety rides and

safety escorts

• Safe Haven Program that includes New

York Fire Department houses

• Awareness programs

• Special events teams

The Department of Public Safety Web

page (http://www.nyu.edu/life/safety-health-wellness/be-safe/public-safety.html) includes safety tips and other useful

information.

Reporting Procedures

New York University students, staff and fac-

ulty are urged to promptly report all crimes

and emergency situations in which they are

a victim or a witness (whether occurring

on campus or off campus) to Public Safety

and to the police. Public Safety offers sup-

port and assistance to any victim or witness.

Reporting incidents to Public Safety will

aid in providing timely warning notices to

the community, when appropriate and will

enable inclusion of reported incidents in the

annual disclosure of crime statistics.

Crimes may also be reported to

any campus security authority, who

are University officials with significant

responsibility for student and campus

activities. Campus security authorities

include senior staff members in Residence

Life, Student Affairs, Student Activities,

Athletics, Community Standards and

each of the individual colleges within the

University. All Resident Assistants (RAs),

athletic team coaches and advisors to

student clubs and organizations are also

included in this classification. Crimes

reported to any campus security authority

are communicated to Public Safety.

Professional mental health counselors and

pastoral counselors acting in such capacity

are excluded from the requirement to

report crimes communicated to them to

Public Safety; however, NYU encourages

individuals acting in these capacities, when

they believe it appropriate, to inform the

person being counseled of procedures to

report crimes on a voluntary, confidential

basis for inclusion in the crime log and the

annual security report.

Victims of, or witnesses to, a crime who

do not want to pursue action within the

University system or the criminal justice

system may still want to consider making a

confidential report. With the permission of

a victim or witness, Public Safety can file an

internal report of the details of the incident

without revealing the victim’s or witness’

identity. The purpose of a confidential report

is to comply with the desire to keep the

matter confidential, while taking steps to

ensure the future safety of the victim and

others. With such information, the University

can keep an accurate record of the number

of incidents involving students, employees

and visitors; determine where there is a

pattern of crime with regard to a particular

location, method, or assailant; and alert the

campus community to potential danger.

Reports filed in this manner are counted and

disclosed in the annual crime statistics.

NYU makes every effort to facilitate the

reporting of crimes. Reports can be filed

with Public Safety 24 hours a day, seven

days a week by going to the command

center or by calling 212-998-2222.

When reports are received, the following

actions are taken:

• Victims are referred to the appropriate

offices/agencies on and off campus,

including law enforcement, counseling,

health/medical services and judicial affairs.

• The University does not have a written

policy encouraging pastoral and profes-

sional mental health counselors to inform

persons about reporting crimes. However,

such individuals do alert students of the

NYU Wellness Exchange! x 39999 (on campus phones)

! 212-443-9999 (non-campus phones)

NYU’s Wellness Exchange provides a single point of access

to the University’s many programs and services that are

available to address the varied health and mental health needs

of students. The Wellness Exchange can be contacted 24

hours a day, seven days a week by dialing 999 from any New

York City campus phone or 212-443-9999 from other phones.

Students can find contact information and more at the Wellness

Exchange’s Web site at www.nyu.edu/life/safety-health-wellness/wellness-exchange.html. By contacting the Wellness Exchange, students can be put in

touch with the most appropriate of a wide range of professionals to help them

address day-to-day challenges as well as any other crises they may encounter,

including depression, sexual assault, anxiety, alcohol or drug dependence, sexually

transmitted infections, and eating disorders. The Wellness Exchange also is

available for students who just need to talk or are concerned about a friend.

Scheduled route service operates from 7 am to 12 midnight on weekdays and

from 10 am to 12 midnight on weekends. Schedule information is available online

at www.nyu.edu/public.safety/transportation/ and real time bus locations are

available online at: www.nyu.edu/nyutransport. Safe Ride is a shared ride/on-demand van service that is available to provide

overnight transportation each day from the time that scheduled route service

Campus Facilities and Programs

NYU takes very seriously its responsibilities

for the safety of its residence halls,

classrooms, and other facilities. Services

provided include card readers for access

control at residence halls and various

academic facilities; call waiting at residence

hall security desks so that calls will be

received by security personnel; video

surveillance systems in various outdoor and

indoor locations, including residence hall

lobbies; panic alarm buttons in common rest

rooms; emergency call boxes located near

NYU facilities; an expansion of the number

of buildings with 24-hour security officers;

secure bicycle parking area behind Tisch

Hall; and an electronic card access system

for off hour access into certain academic

buildings and facilities.

Residence HallsAll undergraduate residence halls are staffed

with an NYU security officer at the front

desk on a 24 hour a day basis. Graduate

residence halls have either a doorman or

24-hour security patrol/coverage. No one

is allowed into the residence halls unless

he/she is a resident, guest or otherwise

authorized visitor. Most of the residence

halls utilize a turnstile system tied into the

University access control system allowing

all resident students access by using

their identification card and PIN number.

Commuter students must be accompanied

by the resident student and the commuter

student ID card is swiped in conjunction

with the resident student card for tracking

purposes. All other guests must be in the

presence of the resident student. The guest

produces a photo ID which is either state

issued or from another college or university.

The ID is retained by the security officer

until the guest is signed out by the host. All

persons seeking entry, including staff and

faculty, are checked for proper identification.

Guests in buildings must identify

themselves and be announced. Residents

must respond to the lobby to accept

deliveries. Graduate students residing in

residence halls with doormen may use

a package room for deliveries or must

approve deliveries to their doors.

NYU does not have any officially

recognized student organizations that have

housing facilities “off campus.” If the NYPD is

contacted about criminal activity occurring

off campus involving NYU students, NYPD

may notify Public Safety. However, there

is no official NYPD policy requiring such

notification. Students in these cases may

be subject to arrest by the NYPD and to

University student disciplinary proceedings.

ClassroomsSecurity officers are stationed in the lobby

of most classroom buildings to monitor

persons entering the building.

Other University FacilitiesNYU security officers are posted in the

Bobst Library and Coles Sports Center

during all operating hours of these facilities.

All persons entering these facilities are

checked for proper identification and/or

memberships. In addition, Public Safety

maintains security officers in and around

academic and administrative buildings.

Video surveillance systems are located

throughout campus buildings.

Maintenance of Campus FacilitiesFacilities are maintained in a manner that

minimizes hazardous conditions. Public

Safety personnel regularly patrol the

campus and report malfunctioning lights

and other unsafe physical conditions to the

Public Safety Command Center, where an

incident report is prepared. Incident reports

are then routed to the appropriate building

personnel for corrective action. NYU

Facilities and Construction Management

maintain a work order system where

members of the University community can

be email problems and the appropriate

maintenance personnel are dispatched to

correct the condition.

Defibrillator Action Response Team (DART)

Public Safety, in conjunction with the NYU

Student Health Center, has established a

Defibrillator Action Response Team (DART).

DART is a public access defibrillation

program designed to make automated

external defibrillators (AEDs) readily

accessible to the NYU community as a

preventive tool, with the potential for

saving lives in cases of sudden cardiac

arrest. The program comprises 29 individual

defibrillation units strategically located

throughout University facilities, covering

from as far south as Lafayette Street to

as far north as 24th Street. Public Safety

continually trains its members to meet

American Red Cross certification standards

that are valid for two years.

Further information may be obtained from

the Public Safety training manager at 212-

998-1458.

Student Property Identification Program

Public Safety encourages NYU students

to mark their personal property to make

illegal sale more difficult and the recovery

of valuables easier. Methods for students to

protect their property are discussed, as part

of student orientations and crime prevention

programs. During 2012, Public Safety and

the NYPD collaborated on 7 Operation ID

sessions where small electronic equipment

including smart phones, iPods and laptop

computers were tagged using infra red

technology and registered with the police.

Missing Student Policy

Scope of this PolicyThis Policy applies to all New York University

(“NYU” or “the University”) students,

whether or not they reside on an NYU

campus or in NYU housing.

Policy StatementIt is the policy of NYU, through the

collaboration of the Office of Student

Affairs and the Office of Public Safety, to

investigate any report of a missing student

who is enrolled and attending classes at

NYU. This policy, with its accompanying

procedures, establishes a framework

for cooperation among members of the

University community aimed at locating and

assisting students who are reported missing.

A student will be deemed missing when

he or she is reported absent from the

University at any of its campuses or global

sites without any known reason. All reports

of missing students must be directed to

NYU’s Office of Public Safety at 212-998-

2222, which will investigate each report and

make a determination whether the student is

missing in accordance with this policy.

Each student has the option to identify

a confidential contact person or persons

who will be notified within 24 hours in the

event that a determination is made by NYU

Public Safety that the student is missing.

This contact information may be added

through “Albert”, the portal to NYU’s student

information system. Only authorized campus

officials and law enforcement officers in

furtherance of a missing person investigation

may have access to this information.

If a missing student is under 18 years of

age, and not an emancipated individual,

the University will notify a custodial parent

or guardian of the missing student not

later than 24 hours after the determination

by NYU Public Safety that the student is

missing.

NYU Public Safety will contact local

police and other law enforcement agencies

no later than 24 hours after it determines

that any student is missing.

There are a variety of University student

housing options and staffing patterns.

Much of NYU student housing is configured

for apartment-style living, and there is no

formal procedure or prescribed timelines

for monitoring whether students are

present in their assigned student housing.

Student welfare and safety is paramount

to the University; however, the University

recognizes and makes known its limitations

in obtaining accurate and timely information

on the whereabouts of students.

The Office of Student Affairs shall have

the responsibility to make the provisions

of this policy and the procedures set forth

below available to students.

ProceduresAny report of a missing student, from

whatever source, must immediately be

directed to NYU Public Safety.When a

student is reported missing NYU Public

Safety will:

• initiate an investigation to determine the

validity of the missing person report;

• inform the Office of Student Affairs;

• make a determination as to the status of

the missing student;

• notify local police or other appropriate

law enforcement agencies within 24

hours of making the determination that

the student is missing.

Upon determining the student is missing and

upon notification by NYU Public Safety, the

Office of Student Affairs will:

• notify the person(s) identified by the

missing student as the confidential con-

tact within 24 hours of making the deter-

mination that the student is missing;

• if the missing student is under the age

of 18, and not an emancipated individual,

notify the student’s custodial parent or

guardian as contained in the records

of the University within 24 hours of the

determination that the student is missing;

• inform other University units, such as the

school in which the student is enrolled,

as needed; and

• initiate whatever other action is deemed

appropriate under the circumstances to

be in the best interest of the missing stu-

dent.

• The Office of Student Affairs shall initiate

whatever action is deemed appropriate

under the circumstances to be in the

best interest of the missing student.

Student Contact Information:In addition to having the option to identify

a “confidential contact person” as provided

in this policy, all students will complete a

Contact Information Form upon enrollment

at NYU. It is the responsibility of the student

to regularly update any changes to their

contact information.

Student Notification of This Policy:• Included on NYU Student Affairs and

Public Safety web pages and on the NYU

Policy database website.

• Included in student and parent enroll-

ment communications.

• Discussed during beginning semester,

mandatory housing meetings.

• Included in the annual Campus Security

Report.

Crime Awareness and Prevention Programs

NYU students are educated about safety

as soon as they arrive on campus. During

Welcome Week, resident students attend

floor meetings on the first night they move

in to receive information about good

security practices in and around the campus.

Additional information can be found on the

following link: http://www.nyu.edu/life/safety-health-wellness/be-safe/public-safety/crime-prevention.html, including

locations of University buildings with 24-

hour security, locations of call boxes and

911 telephones, a description of the 24-hour

safe haven program for students, and maps

showing University buildings. General safety

tips regarding safety on-campus, security in

the residence halls, navigating the city and

being “street-wise” in New York City, and

utilizing the NYU and city transportation

systems. Specific safety information on how

to avoid being a victim of con games, cults

and sexual assault is also included.

A compelling orientation session for

incoming students, entitled “The Reality

Show,” addresses issues such as sexual

assault, bias and harassment, and general

safety. A variety of other safety and security

related workshops also are offered for

students during Welcome Week including

sessions such as “Safety in the City” and ”On

the Go—Traveling Safe in NYC.“

“Safety in the City” workshops are

also offered to incoming students during

accepted student programs during the

summer and to international and transfer

students.

In addition to programs for incoming

students, safety information is provided

to students throughout the year in the

following ways:

• General information and tips for being

safe on campus and in New York

City are presented on-line by the

Department of Public Safety at: http://www.nyu.edu/life/safety-health-wellness/be-safe/public-safety/crime-prevention.html

• Updates concerning specific safety

related matters on the NYU campus, in

the local community, and in relation to

events in New York City are issued on

the University website at: http://www.nyu.edu/life/safety-health-wellness/info-alerts.html

• Special reports on campus safety are

included in NYU Today, a University

newsletter published monthly during the

academic year.

• Articles about crime and safety on

campus are published in the student

newspaper The Washington Square News.

• A daily crime log is available on the NYU

Public Safety webpage http://www.nyu.edu/life/safety-health-wellness/be-safe/public-safety/crime-reports-statistics.html or at the Public Safety

command center which is open 24

hours a day, 365 days per year. The

information contained in the crime log

reflects criminal incidents reported to

Public Safety, including the nature of the

incident, dates occurred and reported,

time occurred, general location and

disposition. The privacy of victim and

assailant information is protected by

never revealing information that can lead

to their identities.

• “Safety Alerts” are distributed as

necessary to inform the community

about safety-related issues, risk-

reducing precautions, and sources of

help and additional information.

• Safety brochures are available through

the Department of Public Safety.

• Throughout the academic year, Peer

Educators affiliated with the Student

Health Center, Wellness Services, and

the Center for Multicultural Education

and Programs facilitate educational

workshops for students in the residence

halls, student organizations, and other

University offices. Peer Educators

undergo a training program on issues

related to the topic of sexual assault

such as rape culture, consent in sexually

intimate relationships, date rape drugs,

and how to help a friend who has been

sexually assaulted. Peer Educators

present factual information and stimulate

non-judgmental conversation on the topic

of sexual assault.

• Workshops including topics covering

“Safety in the City”, “Safety Tips for

City Living”, and “ On The Go in NYC”

are facilitated by the Department of

Public Safety. In 2012, 19 programs were

presented with the majority conducted

for freshman, transfer and student

orientations.

• Various NYU offices and student

organizations co-sponsor annual

awareness events through the academic

year such as “Sexual Assault Awareness

Week” and the Clothesline Project. In

2012, the Department of Residential Life

offered 29 alcohol awareness programs,

and 26 drug awareness programs

The Office of Health Promotion in the

Student Health Center provided 15

programs on bystander intervention

including sexual assault and harassment

and 19 programs related to alcohol and

substance abuse.

• Public Safety also offers training on

safety-related topics for faculty and staff.

Resident Assistants receive initial training

from Public Safety officials on Clery

Act requirements, role of Public Safety

officers and other related topics during

their orientation each summer and on an

on-going basis.

6 | 2013 Campus Security and Fire Safety Report

• Resident Assistants receive first

responder training related to a variety

of potential crisis situations, including

but not limited to, building evacuation,

sexual assault intervention, and bias

intervention.

• Sessions on security and transportation

matters are held for staff from the Division

of Students Affairs and Public Safety

• NYU Rape Crisis Intervention Team

Members, including representatives from

the academic units, University Health

Center, University Counseling Service,

Public Safety, Residential Education,

Housing, Student Resource Center,

Student Affairs, Athletics, and University

Administration, have received training in

how to assist victims of sexual assault and

domestic violence from staff from various

local rape crisis programs and agencies.

• Public Safety has a designated “Special

Victims Liaison” who is specially trained

in working with crime victims and whose

responsibilities include investigating

harassments and sexual assaults,

maintaining relationships with other

University departments, and assisting

victims of sexual assaults as a liaison to

law enforcement agencies.

Safe Haven Program

Through the cooperation of local merchants

and services in the communities where

NYU facilities are located, members of the

University community can enter designated

establishments at any time and request to

use a telephone to contact Public Safety

or the NYPD. These locations prominently

display an NYU Safe Haven sticker on

their windows. A listing by neighborhoods

appears on page 10.

Alcohol and Drug Use

The issue of safety touches on many other

areas of campus and city life, among them

the use and sale of illegal drugs, underage

drinking, and abuse of alcohol. New York

University is committed not only to educating

students on issues concerning alcohol

and drug use but also to responding to

behavior that is in violation of the University’s

Policies on Substance Abuse and Alcoholic

Beverages. Detailed information about

the University’s policies and procedures

regarding the use/abuse of alcohol and

other drugs by students and the University’s

response within the wellness and conduct

paradigms can be found on-line at http://www.nyu.edu/life/student-life/student-communitystandards/university-student-conduct-policies.html. University employees

are urged to contact their Human Resources

representative and/or the HR Web site

(http://www.nyu.edu/about/working-at-nyu.html) for specific information regarding

applicability of the alcohol and other

substance abuse policy to employees.

Bias and Harassment Prevention

New York University is committed to

maintaining a learning and working

environment that is free of bias, prejudice,

and harassment. Harassment based upon

race, gender, color, religion, age, national

origin, ethnicity, disability, veteran or military

status, sexual orientation, gender expression,

marital status, citizenship status, or any

other legally protected basis is prohibited

by law and undermines the character and

purpose of the University. Such actions are

illegal and against University policy, and will

not be tolerated.

A bias-related crime occurs when a

person intentionally commits a specified

criminal offense against a person because

of that person’s actual/ perceived race,

color, national origin, ancestry, gender,

religion, religious practice, age, disability

or sexual orientation. Examples of a bias-

related conduct include but are not limited

to physical or verbal assaults, theft, arson,

electronic harassment, and hate mail. A

bias-related incident does not have to meet

the legal definition of a hate crime before

NYU will take action under its own conduct

policies.

It is the responsibility of all members of the

NYU community to report incidents of sexual

assault or a bias-related incident or crime. If

you are the victim of a sexual assault or bias-

related incident or if you have witnessed such

an assault or incident, you should report the

incident immediately to the NYU Department

of Public Safety. The Department of Public

Safety can be reached 24 hours a day, 7 days

a week at 212-998-2222.

Filing a report with the NYU Department

of Public Safety may not automatically

initiate the disciplinary process at NYU. The

appropriate person with whom a complaint

should be filed depends on the status of the

offender. For further information regarding

where to report bias or harassment,

contact the Director of the Office of Equal

Opportunity at 212-998-2352 or the Director

of Community Standards and Compliance at

Sexual Assault and other Sex Offenses on Campus

New York University is committed not only

to providing broad-based education on the

issues of sexual assault and harassment but

also to pursuing disciplinary action against

those who violate the rights of others by

engaging in sexual misconduct. Detailed

information about the University’s policies

and procedures regarding sexual assault and

harassment can be found in this document.

Campus Security Report Preparation

This report has been prepared by a task

force of University professionals from Public

Safety, the Office of General Counsel, the

Office of Government and Community

Relations and the Division of Student Affairs.

This group meets throughout the year to

discuss security and safety issues and review

existing policies. In addition, Public Safety

meets consistently with the local precincts

to discuss safety in the area and data that is

included in this report.

Emergency Preparations

NYU’s emergency plans for ensuring

the safety of students on campus were

vigorously tested during Hurricane Sandy.

Since that event, NYU has undertaken

additional measures to further strengthen its

communication protocols and emergency

infrastructure, particularly addressing

extended power outages—the primary

issue for the University during the storm.

Significant investments have been made to

expand the number of residential buildings

with emergency power and install additional

emergency lighting. For a full list of the

improvements the University has undertaken

since Hurricane Sandy, go to http://www.nyu.edu/content/dam/nyu/publicAffairs/documents/PDF/Final-Hurricane-Sandy-Report-to-the-Community-07-01-13.pdf While New York City is one of the safest

large cities in America and incidences of

violence on campus are exceedingly rare,

ensuring the safety of our community

requires us to be prepared for a wide range

of potential emergencies, including active

shooter events. The University, working

with NYPD and other experts, developed

training on how to spot and prevent

potential violence on campus, as well as how

to react if a violent situation does occur.

Additionally, an ongoing campaign of safety

awareness tips has been developed with a

recurring schedule of distribution, along with

a website (nyu.edu/besafe) where a wide

range of safety information and additional

resources have been consolidated for ease

of access and reference.

Emergency Response and Evacuation Policy Statement:

NYU has an operational plan for responding

to campus emergencies that details the roles

and responsibilities of the senior leadership

of the University during a declared

emergency.

There are four classes of emergencies at NYU:

• Routine: Declaration of a Routine

Incident means that an unplanned

event or off-normal condition, such as

a student injury, a small lab chemical

spill, or a very small trashcan fire that

was immediately brought under control

and caused no damage, has occurred.

The incident may or may not require a

time urgent response from outside the

immediate facility or area of the incident.

This event may involve a potential

reduction in the safety or security of a

particular facility or group.

• Developing Incident/Community Alert:

Declaration of a Developing Incident/

Community Alert means that an event

is in progress or has occurred which

involves an actual or potential reduction

in the safety, health, or security of

the campus with actual or potential

direct harm to people, facilities, or

the environment. The incident has the

potential to develop beyond an isolated

incident and/or a community alert, such

an approaching storm, incidents with

physical injury, or riots. This incident

may be an actual or potential release

of hazardous materials or a fire not yet

under control.

• Immediate Threat: Declaration of an

Immediate Threat means that an event

has occurred, or is occurring, which

involves actual or likely major failures

of security, health, or safety functions,

which have, or will, result in direct harm

and/or damage to the NYU community,

several campus facilities, public health

and safety, and the environment. This

could include a large chemical spill, a

large fire causing significant damage,

serious injury and/or deaths, or an event

that disrupts sizable portions of campus

property and/or the NYU community.

• Campus Wide Emergency: Declaration of

a Campus Wide Emergency means that

an event has occurred, or is occurring,

which involves actual or imminent major

failures of security, health, or safety func-

tions that have resulted in substantial,

direct harm/damage to the NYU com-

munity; many, if not all campus facilities;

the general public, health and safety, and

the environment. For example, this could

include incidents amounting to a disas-

ter or catastrophe, a massive campus

wide evacuation due to severe weather

conditions, or a medical epidemic that is

affecting the entire university and/or sur-

rounding community.

Determination of Emergency Level. The Public Safety Command Center serves

as the central information intake point.

The Center is staffed with supervisory

personnel on a 24/7 basis and receives

radio and telephone notifications regarding

emergencies at the NYC campus as well as

all of the Study Abroad and international

sites; similar to a municipal 911 system. The

Vice President of Global Security and Crisis

Management, along with the Senior Vice

Provost for Student Affairs, the Executive

Vice President-Operations, and the Vice

President of Public Affairs, determines

the level of emergency and any additional

resources that may be needed to mitigate

the emergency.

Evacuation of the New York University Campus.

NYU is an urban university situated primarily

within Greenwich Village, but which also

extends to portions of southern and

northern Manhattan. The NYU campus is

defined by buildings without the traditional

fences, entrance gates, etc. In the event of a

campus wide emergency (which could also

be a city or region-wide emergency), NYU

would rely heavily on directions from the

New York City emergency first responders,

which is coordinated by the Office of

Emergency Management during declared

emergencies. The University has the

capacity to evacuate any and all buildings

when necessary.

Emergency Notification and Communication System.

NYU, through its’ Department of Public

Safety, maintains and operates a web based

mass communication system. Students are

automatically enrolled when they register for

classes. In the event of an emergency, the

message delivery is primarily via e-mail and

SMS/text messaging to cell phones can also

be via voice message to traditional phones.

The messages are initiated on the advice of

a Public Safety tour commander, or senior

Public Safety management staff member.

The Vice President of Global Security and

Crisis Management, in consultation with

Senior University officials or their designees,

is responsible for message content and

directing the sending of the message. A

test of the Emergency Notification and

Communication System is conducted

once a semester. Tests for Academic Year

2013-2014 are planned for September and

February. Messages alerting the University

community can also be found on the nyu.

edu home page under http://www.nyu.edu/life/safety-health-wellness/info-alerts.html and recorded messages by calling 212-998-

1220. Messages are updated regularly when

a University alert is active.

2013 Campus Security and Fire Safety Report | 7

Crime Statistics Reporting

The statistics are gathered by three

methods:

1. Reviewing the daily incidents reported

to the Department of Public Safety.

2. Designated campus security authorities

report incidents that may have been

reported to them.

3. Crime information is frequently

gathered from local law enforcement

authorities.

The reported statistics are a combination of

all three methods listed above.

Reporting Areas

The University reports incidents for its

“on-campus” and “non-campus” facilities

and is also required to report crimes that

occur on “public property.” For NYU, an

urban university with no walls around

its campus, this poses the challenge of

reporting crime incidents when, in most

cases, these incidents are not on University

property and do not involve members of

the NYU community.

This Campus Security report contains

maps that shows the “campus” and “non-

campus” areas (as defined by the Higher

Education Amendments of 1998), with

charts reporting “campus,” “non-campus,”

and “public property” areas crime

statistics. Residence Halls located on

campus and in non-campus locations are

further drilled down in those respective

categories.

On-Campus NYU’s on-campus properties

include NYU facilities that fall within the

borderline of the On-Campus map in this

report. These facilities are owned and

controlled by the University and are used

primarily for supporting the University’s

educational purposes..

Non-Campus NYU’s non-campus proper-

ties include NYU facilities that are owned

or controlled by the University, primarily

used for University purposes, but which

are not located in the immediate on cam-

pus area. These facilities include

academic, residence halls, and

administrative buildings in New York

City outside of Greenwich Village.

Public Property This category includes all

streets, sidewalks, and thoroughfares adja-

cent to on-campus facilities. For NYU, this

means including the sidewalks and streets

that are traveled by thousands of New

York City residents and tourists every

day as well as Washington Square Park, a

public park that is visited by thousands of

people each day. NYU shares a respon-

sibility for safety in all of these public

places but does not have jurisdiction

over them. While this expanded area of

reporting has produced greater numbers

in NYU’s statistical reporting, only a very

small percentage involves members of the

NYU community.

FOOTNOTESIn 2010, there were three criminal mischief incidents involving graffiti of a religious bias nature (2 in an off campus mixed-use building and 1 in an on-campus academic building) and one harassment bias-related incident in a non-campus residence hall involving harassment of a student. In 2011, there were five bias related incidents — 3 harassment (1 each for ethnic, race and religion occurring in non-campus residence halls) and 2 criminal mischief-graffiti (for sexual orientation; 1 in non-campus residence hall and 1 on campus).In 2012, there were seven bias-related incidents — 6 in non-campus residence halls (4 criminal mischief for ethnicity, 1 harassment for race, 1 harassment for sexual preference) and 1 on-campus (harassment for ethnicity). At the Singapore campus, there were no bias-related incidents for 2010, 2011 or 2012. Included in this report are incidents reported to law enforcement agencies and communicated to Public Safety.

* Campus residence halls statistics are a subset of the overall on campus totals.

** Non-Campus residence halls statistics are a subset of the overall non-campus totals.

*** Totals reflect on-campus, non-campus, and public property statistics.

Safety Tips

! Travel on streets where there is pedes-trian traffic.

! If possible, use the buddy system — walk with a friend.

! Use campus transportation. For schedules and information, visit www.nyu.edu/public.safety/ transportation/.

! Be alert to your surroundings. BEWARE and BE AWARE.

! Carry money for emergencies (cab fare, quarters for phone calls).

! Use cash machines during daylight hours whenever possible.

! Avoid counting your money or displaying money on the street.

! Keep your knapsack tightly closed. In restaurants, keep your bag on your lap or where you can see it at all times.

! Always keep your valuables with you.

! Always lock your door whether leaving a room, office or home, even for a minute.

! When traveling by subway, stay near MTA personnel whether waiting or rid-ing. Use Off-Hour Waiting Areas.

! Refrain from using smart phones and tablets while on station platforms or onboard trains.

! Before going on a date, know your date’s name, address, and contact phone number. Leave that information with someone you trust. If possible, have a roommate or other friend meet a first-time date when they pick you up; oth-erwise meet in a public place. If sexual interaction on a date makes you uncom-fortable, clearly state this to your date and remove yourself from the situation. If you are assaulted, find a safe place from which to call 911 or call NYU Department of Public Safety 24 hours a day at 212-998-2222.

! Program cell phone to 911 and 212-998-2222.

Housing Fire Safety Systems, page 12

Fire Protection Equipment

All of New York University student housing

facilities are equipped with automatic fire

detection and alarm systems. The equip-

ment is continually monitored by Public

Safety, 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, 365

days a year.

Health and Safety Inspections

Facilities Management and the New York

City Fire Department inspect every building

once a year. Residential life staff conducts

room inspections on an annual basis to

ensure students are complying with on-cam-

pus fire policies.

New York University Fire Policies for On-Campus Student Housing

Portable electrical appliancesElectric heaters, air conditioners, hot plate

burners and Halogen lighting equipment are

prohibited in residence halls.

SmokingSmoking is prohibited in all areas of all Uni-

versity residence halls. Smoking devices,

including, but not limited to, pipes, bongs,

and hookahs, are not permitted in the resi-

dence halls.

Open FlameCandles, incense, outdoor grills, or any other

type of open flame or open coil device are

prohibited in all University Residence Halls.

Policies for Education and Program

Students are educated on the Fire Safety

Plan for their residence and New York

University Safety Plans within the first ten

days of each semester. This training is done

by the Resident Assistant. NYU believes

it is extremely important that residents

familiarize themselves and their guests

with all applicable fire safety procedures in

their assigned building. Residents who fail

to comply fully with applicable fire safety

procedures, or who otherwise violate rules

and regulations related to fire safety, will

be subject to disciplinary action. Students

who fail to abide by building emergency

evacuation procedures will be subject to

disciplinary action. In general, residents are

expected to maintain reasonable standards

of cleanliness to avoid fire hazards, and must

not obstruct sidewalks, entrances, passages,

fire escapes, elevators, lobbies, stairways,

corridors or halls with personal property.

The following items are prohibited in the

residence halls and will be confiscated:

• Flammable decorations

• Natural or artificial evergreens

• Electric heaters, air conditioners, hot

plate burners

• Halogen lighting equipment

• Candles, incense, outdoor grills, or any

other type of open flame or open coil

device

• Explosives, fireworks, firearms, or

ammunition

Students found in possession of prohibited

items or who fail to evacuate during a drill

or emergency are subject to disciplinary

action and referral to a fire safety education

workshop.

Plans for Future Improvements

New York University is committed to

ensuring that all on-campus housing is fully

sprinkled. In 2005, a campaign was launched

to install fire sprinklers in all the residence

halls. We anticipate being complete in 2017.

Fire Safety is continually assessed to ensure

compliance with all regulatory agencies and

opportunities for improvement.

Annual Fire Safety Report2013-2014

The Higher Education Opportunity Act of 2008, requires academic institutions to produce an annual report that outlines annual on-campus student housing fire-

related statistics, fire safety policies and procedures. Since the majority of New York University’s student housing is located off campus, all student residences are

included. New York University publishes this information as part of the Annual Campus Security and Fire Safety Report every October 1st. This report is available to

all students, faculty, staff and our community on the Public Safety website:http://nyu.edu/life/safety-healthandwellness/public -safety/crime-reports-statistics.html.

Student Housing Evacuation and Drills

Residents receive residence hall specific information about fire safety and

evacuation procedures at the beginning of each term from their RA or Residence

Hall Director. Each semester the Office of Student Affairs in conjunction with

Public Safety and Engineering and Safety conduct fire drills.

The following evacuation procedures are posted on the back of all apartment

entry doors.

IN THE EVENT OF A FIRE, REMAIN CALM. NOTIFY THE FIRE DEPARTMENT AND FOLLOW THE DIRECTIONS OF FIRE DEPARTMENT PERSONNEL. IF YOU MUST TAKE IMMEDIATE ACTION, USE YOUR JUDGMENT AS TO THE SAFEST COURSE OF ACTION, GUIDED BY THE FOLLOWING INFORMATION:

If The Fire Is In Your Apartment

• Close the door to the room where the fire is located and leave the apartment.

• Make sure EVERYONE leaves the apartment with you.

• Take your keys.

• Close the entrance door as you exit, but do not lock.

• Alert people on your floor by knocking on doors on your way to the exit.

• Use the nearest stairway to leave the building.

• DO NOT USE THE ELEVATOR

• Call 911 once you reach a safe location. Do not assume the fire has been

reported unless firefighters are on the scene.

• Meet the members of your household at a pre-determined location outside the

building. Notify responding emergency personnel if anyone is unaccounted

for.

If The Fire Is Not In Your Apartment

• Feel your apartment door and doorknob with the back of your hand. If they

are not hot, open the door slightly to check if there is any flame or smoke in

the hallway.

• Exit your apartment and the building if you can do so safely, following the

instructions for a “fire in your apartment.”

• If the hallway or stairway is not safe for egress because of flame, heat or

heavy smoke conditions and you have access to a fire escape, use it to exit the

building. Always proceed cautiously when on a fire escape.

• If you cannot use the stairs or a fire escape, call 911 or the Fire Department

Dispatcher and inform them of your situation. Provide the address, floor,

apartment number and the number of persons present.

• Seal the front door with wet sheets or towels. Seal air ducts and any other

openings where smoke may enter.

• Open windows a few inches at the top and bottom unless flames or smoke is

coming from below.

• Do not break any windows; they may need to be closed later.

• If conditions in the apartment appear life threatening, open a window and

wave a bedsheet or towel side-to-side to attract the attention of firefighters.

• If smoke conditions worsen before help arrives, get down on the floor and take

short breaths through your nose. If possible retreat to a balcony or terrace

away from the source of the flames, heat or smoke.

2013 Campus Security and Fire Safety Report | 13

Each Hall Director shall be familiar with:• the Fire Safety Plan • the types and locations of the exits • the location and operation of the fire alarm

system and manual pull stations• the types and uses of fire extinguishers.

This should be accomplished as follows:

A. Each Hall Director shall have participated in the mandatory training session for professional staff conducted by the Associate Director of Crisis Intervention and Wellness Response. Any Hall Director joining the staff mid-year is required to meet personally with the Assistant Director of Crisis Intervention and Wellness Response to receive this training.

B. The Hall Director should, prior to the start of the fall semester, or within a week of his/her assuming the position, participate in a tour of the building with the engineer or facility manager for that building. The purpose of this building tour is to become familiar with the nature and location of the fire safety systems in that building, includ-ing (as applicable depending upon the building) the type and function of the alarm in that facility, fire panel, pull boxes, sprinkler system, fire extin-guishers, exit routes, and other equipment.

Each Hall Director shall have prepared his/her building for a fire safety emergency by doing the following:

A. The Hall Director must provide an in-building fire safety training session for his/her RA staff in which the staff members are informed of their role and responsibilities related to fire safety.

B. The Hall Director must coordinate with the Residential Life and Housing Services Offices to ensure that each resident is provided with a fire safety plan upon moving into that building.

C. The Hall Director must ensure that each RA conducts a floor meeting within the first 10 days of each semester. Residents should be able to identify their primary fire safety exit as well as a secondary exit in the event that the primary exit is blocked or unusable due to smoke or fire.

D. The Hall Director must ensure that each RA has identified and informed residents of the pre- determined location where members of the floor should meet in the event of a building evacuation.

E. The Facilities Staff must ensure that the build-ing alarms are tested on a regular basis.

F. The Hall Director must supervise building fire drills as scheduled.

G. The Hall Director must establish a designated meeting place for the RA staff to convene in the event of a building evacuation and/or emergency situation. In the event of an actual emergency, the Hall Director should exercise his/her best judg-ment to evaluate if the designated location is in a safe area, and move the group if necessary.

H. The Hall Director must ensure that the list of students with disabilities (permanent and tempo-rary) in the building is up-to-date and maintained at the station of the Security Officer. In the case of those buildings in which there is no Security Officer, a modified list including the name, room location, and phone number of each student with a disability requiring evacuation assistance should be provided to each RA. Hall Directors are

responsible for following the “Fire Safety Proce-dures for Students with Disabilities.”

I. The Hall Director is expected to be attentive and responsive to violations for fire safety related policies or other conditions that may compromise the safety of building residents by taking the appropriate action, including the adjudication of fire safety violations and the reporting of inappro-priate conditions to the appropriate personnel.

In the event that an evacuation (initiated by the sounding of the building alarm, by personal deci-sion, or at the direction of the fire department personnel) becomes necessary, the Hall Director should do the following:

A. Coordinate the evacuation of the building in accordance with the guidelines for that particular facility. The Security Officer/supervisors may assist with this process, but it is the Hall Director who assumes primary responsibility.

B. In the event that stairways serving the fire floor and/or rooms above are unusable due to contamination or cut-off by the fire and/or smoke, call 911 or the fire department dispatcher, and inform them of the situation.

C. Meet with the Building Engineer, as appropri-ate and possible, to determine the origin and nature of the alarm device activated and the cir-cumstances of the evacuation.

D. Review the updated listing of all residents with physical disabilities who cannot use stairs unaided. After the building has been evacuated, ensure that the Security Officer (or RA in those buildings without a Security Officer) has pre-sented the fire department personnel with the list

detailing the location (Floor and Room Number) of the person(s) with physical disabilities. See that the “Fire Safety Procedures for Students with Disabilities” are implemented.

E. Go to the designated location for meeting with the other members of the staff. Provide the Secu-rity Officers and/or fire department personnel with any information that you may have regarding con-ditions that prompted the evacuation.

F. After evacuation, to the extent that it is pos-sible to do so, dispatch RAs to periodically pro-ceed to the designated meeting location for their respective floors to speak with floor members and/or perform a head count to determine if all regular occupants known to have been present on the floor have been evacuated.

G. Assist with crowd control outside the building. Make sure that residents are at a safe distance from the building. Dispatch RAs to provide floor residents with information, as appropriate and necessary, regarding the status of the situation.

H. If the fire department has determined that there is no need to evacuate the building, a Secu-rity Officer will call each disabled resident to notify him/her of the “all clear” alert.” In those buildings without a Security Officer, the RA on duty should place this call. The Hall Director should ensure that these calls, if necessary, have been made.

I. When the fire department has determined that it is safe to re-enter the building, the Hall Director should assume primary responsibility for coordi-nating that process and assign RAs to assist at the front door to check each resident’s ID and verify those students without ID and guests.

A P P E N D I X C

Residence Hall Director Fire Safety Responsibilities

Each Resident Assistant shall be familiar with the Fire Safety Plan, the types and locations of the exits, the location and operation of the fire alarm system and manual pull stations, and types and uses of fire extinguishers.

Each RA shall have participated in a mandatory in-building training module conducted by the Hall Director.

Each Resident Assistant shall have prepared his/her residents for a fire safety emergency by doing the following:

A. Each RA will conduct a meeting within the first 10 days of each semester. Each of these meetings will conclude with a coordinated fire evacuation exercise in which the RA and floor residents walk to each fire exit on the floor. The RA should be prepared to describe the location where the stair-way exits the building (i.e. “This stairway exits on to E. 10th Street). Residents should be asked to identify which fire exit is closest to their rooms/suites, as well as identify a secondary exit to be used in the event their primary exit is blocked or unusable due to fire or smoke conditions..

B. Each RA will review fire safety information with any resident who moves onto his/her floor after the opening of the semester.

C. Each RA will provide fire safety information on the bulletin board and/or provide fire safety information to residents in other forms such as written materials or floor programs in accordance with related community development expecta-

tions and requirements.

D. Each RA shall notify residents of the pre-determined location where everyone should meet in the event of a building evacuation. In the event of an actual emergency, the RA should exercise his/her own best judgment as to whether the designated location is in a safe and secure area, and move the group to another location if neces-sary.

E. Each RA is required to report hazardous conditions and/or violations of NYU’s fire safety policy to the Residence Hall Director. Such condi-tions may include disabled fire extinguishers or pull stations, hazardous/prohibited materials in rooms or in hallways, or vandalized or missing fire exit signs. RAs should exercise their own best judgment about other potentially hazardous con-ditions not listed here.

F. To supplement information obtained by the Hall Director and Residential Life and Housing Office, each RA is expected to report any of his/her floor residents that have a temporary dis-ability (injury, illness, etc) that would affect that resident in the event of a fire safety emergency or evacuation situation, and notify the Hall Director of the name, location, phone number and dura-tion of disability so that this information may be included in the list maintained for this purpose at Security Officer’s desk or other location. This may be accomplished through meetings (such as the first meeting at the start of each semester) and/or individual visits with residents. The RA should inform the resident that the Hall Director has been notified of the resident’s condition.

In the event that an evacuation (as a function of the sounding of the building alarm, by personal decision, or at the direction of fire department personnel) becomes necessary, the RA shall do the following:

A. Assist in the evacuation of the building in accordance with the guidelines for that particular facility. Should it be necessary to do so, residents will be required to evacuate the building in accor-dance with the established guidelines. In build-ings with alarm systems, residents must evacuate at the sounding of the alarm. In those buildings without alarm systems, the need to evacuate is typically determined by either facilities staff or fire department or other emergency personnel. Evacuation should be via uncontaminated stairs.

B. As the RA evacuates the building, he/she is to knock only on doors that are in his/her path of egress. The RA should not extend their exit route to knock on all room/suite doors or stop on other floors.

C. In the event that stairways are unusable due to contamination or cut-off by fire and/or smoke conditions, call 911 and inform them of your situ-ation and location. Provide your floor number, room number, and number of persons present. Remain in the room with the door closed but not locked. Open windows if outside air is fresh, keep windows closed if outside air is hot or smoke-filled. If smoke or fire is present in the hallway, remain inside room and place wet towels or clothing at the bottom of the door.

D. In those buildings in which there is no Public Safety Officer, each RA should have been pro-vided with a list of disabled residents who require assistance in evacuating the building. RAs in such buildings should present that list to fire depart-ment personnel immediately upon their arrival.

E. After evacuation, to the extent that it is pos-sible to do so, the RA should proceed to the designated meeting location for residents. Speak with floor residents and/ perform a head count to determine whether all regular occupants known to have occupied the floor have evacuated.

F. The RA should go to the designated location for meeting with the other staff members. Provide the Hall Director and/or fire department person-nel with any information that he/she may have regarding conditions that prompted the evacua-tion.

G. Assist with crowd control outside the building. Provide residents with information, as appropriate and necessary, regarding the status of the situa-tion.

H. For buildings where there is not a stationed Security Officer, if the fire department determines there is no need for students with disabilities to evacuate, use the telephone contact list to inform any students with disabilities that they are safe to remain in their rooms.

I. When the fire department has determined that it is safe to re-enter the building, Residential Life staff shall assist the Security Officer at the front door to check each resident’s ID and verify those students without IDs and guests.

A P P E N D I X D

Resident Assistant Fire Safety Responsibilities

An up-to-date list of all residents who have a disability that would significantly impede his/her ability to evacuate a building in a fire safety emergency is to be established and maintained in each residence hall. This list is to be developed from the following sources of information:

• Office of Residential Life and Housing Ser-vices staff are expected to inform each Hall Director of the identity of each resident in his/her building who has so indicated on the application for housing and through the follow-up information gathering process con-ducted by the Moses Center that he/she has a disability which would significantly impede his/her ability to evacuate a building in a fire safety emergency.

• Resident Assistants are to advise floor resi-dents of the importance of informing building staff if any resident needs assistance to evac-uate the building in the event of a fire safety emergency. The RA is to immediately provide that information to the Hall Director who will, in turn, see that the information is included on the list. This includes permanent and tempo-rary disabilities.

• Each Hall Director must devise a means by which the names of residents with temporary disabilities (e.g. illness, accidents, etc) can be placed on the list of disabled students.

The aforementioned list should include the resi-dent’s name, nature of disability, room location, and telephone number and is to be placed with the Security Officer in the building lobby. In those buildings in which a Security Officer is not sta-tioned, each building Resident Assistant is to be provided with a modified list which includes the name, room location, and telephone number of each disabled resident who requires evacuation assistance.

It is the responsibility of each Hall Director to meet personally with each resident who has a disability that would impede his/her ability to evacuate the building in the event of a fire safety emergency and advise them of the following pro-tocol/procedures:

Students with disabilities are not expected to immediately evacuate their room at the sounding of the building alarm (if the building has an alarm).

If there is a fire in his/her room, the disabled resi-dent is to:

• Leave the room, close but do not lock the room door.

• Go to a safe location in the hallway.

• Pull the pull-station alarm (if one is available) or call 911 to report a fire condition. The stu-dent may have to knock on a neighbor’s door

or use a cell phone.

• Ask another resident to inform the building staff of his/her location when he/she reaches the lobby.

If the building alarm sounds but the fire is not in his/her room, the disabled resident is to remain in the room but to prepare for an evacuation.

If the building alarm sounds and the student with the disability is in the building but not in his/her room, if he/she has access to a telephone, he/she should contact the lobby desk, Security Officer, or the Main Public Safety office (in that order) to alert building staff of his/her location. (The Hall Director must ensure that each student with a disability has been given these telephone num-bers, and should urge the student to program those numbers into his/her cell phone). If there is no access to a telephone and the student is able to proceed to the building lobby, he/she should do so. If there is no access to a telephone and the student is unable to proceed to the building lobby, he/she should wait in the public area for fire department personnel to arrive during the building “sweep.”

As soon as they arrive on the scene, fire depart-ment personnel will be supplied with the list of all residents with disabilities who require evacuation assistance. (It is the responsibility of the Security Officer to perform this task. In those buildings in

which there is no Security Officer, each RA should have been provided with a list of residents with disabilities who require assistance in evacuating the building. RAs in such buildings should present that list to the fire department personnel immedi-ately upon their arrival.)

If there is a need to evacuate, fire department personnel will immediately proceed to the rooms of each student with a disability to assist in the evacuation. Other fire department personnel should conduct a “sweep” of public areas (e.g. laundry, lounges, etc) to ensure that no students with disabilities have been “stranded” in those areas.

During a scheduled fire drill, all students with disabilities should be notified PRIOR TO the drill. Students with disabilities do not need to evacuate during a scheduled drill, and should wait in their rooms. If a student with a disability is in a public area (i.e. lounge, laundry, lab, etc) and contacts the Security Officer or front desk or Hall Director, that student should be informed of the drill situa-tion, and advised to remain in his or her location until the drill is concluded.

It is the responsibility of each Hall Director to ensure that this protocol has been implemented in those buildings for which he/she had adminis-trative responsibility.

14 | 2013 Campus Security and Fire Safety Report

Purpose of Policy:

1. To comply with the requirements of Title IX and the Violence Against Women Act.

2. To define the nature of sexual assault, harassment and other forms of sexual conduct that is prohibited at the University.

3. To set forth the manner in which allegations of sexual misconduct will be addressed at the University.

4. To provide resources for victims and those accused of sexual misconduct.

To Whom the Policy Applies:

This policy applies to all students, administrators, faculty and staff at the

University.

I. General Statement: New York University is committed to

maintaining a safe learning environment

that is free of acts of violence, harassment

and other forms of sexual misconduct that

undermine the character and purpose of

the University and to creating a campus

climate that supports, nurtures, and rewards

educational and career advancement on

the basis of ability and performance. All

students are subject to this policy and also

are encouraged to report any incidents

of sexual assault or harassment of which

they become aware that compromise the

well-being of an individual or the University

community.

II. Policy Statement:

A. Sexual Assault: Within New York University, sexual assault is defined as a sexual act against the will and without the consent of the victim. While defining effective consent in sexually intimate relationships can be difficult, examples of sexual assault include, but are not limited to:

• Sexual contact with someone whom you reasonably should have known was impaired due to the use of alcohol or other drugs.

• Sexual contact with someone who is “passed out” or sleeping.

• Sexual contact with someone who is unable to say “no” and/or change his/her mind due to the presence of coercion or intimidation.

• Sexual contact with someone who is under the legal age to consent.

B. Sexual Harassment: Within New York University, sexual harassment is defined as unwelcome conduct of a sexual nature. It includes sexual advances, requests for sexual favors, and other verbal, non-verbal, or physical conduct of a sexual nature when:

• Submission to or rejection of the conduct is either an explicit or implicit term or condition of employment, basis for partici-pation or advancement in an academic program, or basis for participation in a University activity or benefit;

• Such conduct creates an intimidating, hostile or offensive work, academic or residential environment;

• Such conduct otherwise adversely affects employment or academic opportunities.

Examples of sexual harassment include, but are not limited to:

• Verbal abuse or hostile behavior such as insulting, teasing, mocking, degrading or ridiculing another person or group.

• Unwelcome or inappropriate physical contact, comments, questions, advances, jokes, epithets or demands.

• Physical assault or stalking.

• Displays or electronic transmission of derogatory, demeaning or hostile materials.

• Unwillingness to train, evaluate, assist, or work with a student.

• Engaging in behavior that is invasive or disruptive to another student for the purpose of initiating a sexual or romantic relationship with that person.

C. Other Forms of Sexual Misconduct: Other forms (in addition to sexual assault and sexual harassment) of sexual misconduct that compromise the well-being of another student also are subject to review at the University. Examples of such misconduct may include, but are not limited to, actions that are sexually exploitative or degrading, retaliatory and/or abusive acts directed toward former relationship partners, or retaliatory/abusive actions directed toward someone who has rejected the efforts of another to establish a relationship.

III. Consensual Relationships:Sexual behavior that is welcome or consensual does not constitute sexual harassment. However, consensual sexual relationships in situations where one individual has power or authority over another may result in claims of harassment when the relationship ends and/or may give rise to complaints by others of favoritism while the relationship continues. Examples of such relationships may include: a professor and his/her student, a supervisor and a subordinate, or a coach and team player. If such a consensual relationship occurs, any situation of authority should be discontinued immediately.

IV. Violations of Law: Behavior which violates the University policy may also violate the laws of the locality in which the incident occurred and subject the perpetrator to criminal prosecution by the presiding authority.

A. Federal: Title IX of the Education Amendments of

1972 (Title IX), 20 U.S.C. §§ 1681 et seq., and its implementing regulations, 34 C.F.R. Part 106, prohibit discrimination on the basis of sex in education programs or activities operated by recipients of

Federal financial assistance. http://www.justice.gov/crt/about/cor/coord/titleix.php

B. New York State: Sex Offenses are described in Sections

130.00 to 130.90 of the New York State Penal Code and in Appendix A of this document (page 15). http://ypdcrime.com/penal.law/article130.htm

C. Global Academic Centers:

Students who are studying at one of the University’s Global Academic Centers

should be aware that they are subject to the laws of that country with regard to what constitutes sexual assault or another sex-based offense.

V. Reporting an Incident of Sexual Assault, Harassment or other Sexual Misconduct:

A. New York City Campus: Victims, or anyone else who is aware of

the occurrence of such an incident, are encouraged to report such offenses as soon as possible, whether the incident took place on or off campus, to the NYU Department of Public Safety (212-998-2222) , the Title IX Coordinator (212-998-2352) or via the web at: http://www.nyu.edu/about/policies-guidelines-compliance/equal-opportunity/harassment-and-discrimination/submitcomplaint.html, a Residence Life and Housing staff member (212-998-4600), the Office of the Dean of Students in his/her school, the Office of Community Standards (212-998-4403), the Student Health Center (212-443-1000) and/or the Wellness Exchange (212-443-9999), or another campus official from the contact list available at http://www.nyu.edu/content/dam/nyu/equalOpp/documents/OEOcontactlist.pdf

B. Global Academic Centers: Students at a global center should report

an incident to a campus security officer, a residence hall staff member, the site Wellness Coordinator, or the appropriate Student Affairs administrator:

• NYU Washington, D.C. – Michael Ulrich, Director, 202-654-8310, [email protected]

C. Referral to Police: A victim of sexual misconduct has the option to report the incident to the appropriate local law enforcement authorities for the purpose of filing a criminal complaint and/or seeking and enforcing a no contact, retraining or similar court order and has the right to be assisted by the University in exercising this option. (In New York: contact the Victims Services Liaison in the Department of Public Safety at 212-998-9829. At a Global Academic Center: contact the office of the site Director). A criminal investigation into an allegation of sexual misconduct does not relieve, or substitute for, the University’s duty and authority to conduct its own prompt review of a complaint; the University will not wait for the conclusion of a criminal investigation or proceeding to begin its own investigation and resolution of an alleged violation. Furthermore, because the standards for criminal proceedings differ from those used in campus disciplinary actions, conduct that may not be subject to criminal prosecution or sanctions may still be addressed through the University disciplinary process, and/or a finding of “not guilty” in a criminal case does not preclude a finding of responsibility in a campus disciplinary proceeding for violating University policy. Students are advised to preserve physical evidence to support their complaint in the event they wish to pursue criminal action.

D. Retaliation: The University will take steps to prevent/address any form of retaliation against the complainant.

E. Specific Rights Afforded to Sexual Assault Complainants: Victims of sexual assault are entitled to specific rights, among them:

• The right to a prompt and equitable investigation and resolution of a complaint.

• The right to file a complaint with the appropriate local law enforcement authorities for the purpose of filing a criminal complaint and/or seeking and enforcing a no contact, retraining or similar court order.

• The right to be assisted by the University in seeking assistance from local law enforcement.

• The right to request and receive a change in his/her living situation if such a change is reasonably available.

• The right to request and receive a change in his/her academic situation if such a change is reasonably available.

• The right to be referred to on- and off-campus counseling, mental health or other student services for victims of sex offenses.

• The right to file a complaint on campus and to avail him/herself of the process for doing so including, but not limited to, the following: adequate, reliable, and impartial investigation of complaints; an equal opportunity to present relevant witnesses and other evidence; an equal opportunity to be accompanied by an

New York University

Policy on Sexual Assault, Harassment and Other Forms of Sexual Misconduct2013-2014

Effective Date: August 15, 2013

Issuing Authority: Marc Wais, Office of the Vice President for Student Affairs

Responsible Officer: Thomas Grace, Director of Community Standards and Compliance

Page 15: Ca mp us Secu rity - nyu.edu · up-to-date information enabling them to locate and contact students, faculty, and staff abroad in the event of an emergency. C ampus T ransportation

adviser (who may be an attorney); an equal opportunity to the appeal processes.

• The Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act (FERPA) permits a school to disclose to the student victim information about the sanction imposed upon a student who was found to have engaged in violative behavior when the sanction directly relates to the victim. Furthermore, when the conduct involves allegations of a crime of violence or a non-forcible sex offense, a postsecondary institution is required to simultaneously provide written notification of the final results of a disciplinary proceeding against the alleged perpetrator to both the victim and the alleged perpetrator, regardless of whether the institution concluded that a violation was committed.

VI. Resolution of a Report of Sexual Assault, Harassment or other Sexual Misconduct:The University will act promptly in response to information that an incident of an assault, harassment or other form of sexual miscon-duct has occurred. Any conduct that may be in violation of this policy will be investigated and addressed in a timely manner, typically within 60 calendar days.

A. Confidentiality: If a complainant requests confidentiality or asks that the complaint not be pursued, the University still must take all reasonable steps to investigate and respond to the complaint within the parameters of such a request. If a complainant insists that his or her name or other identifiable information not be disclosed to the alleged perpetrator, the complainant must realize that the University’s ability to respond may be limited. When a complainant insists that his or her name or other identifiable information not be revealed, the University must evaluate that request in the context of its responsibility to provide a safe and nondiscriminatory environment for all students. Thus, the University will weigh the request for confidentiality against the following factors:

• the seriousness of the alleged harassment

• the complainant’s age

• whether there have been other complaints about the same individual

• the alleged perpetrators’ rights to receive information about the allegations under the Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act (FERPA), 20 U.S.C. § 1232g; 34 C.F.R. Part 99.15

If the University cannot ensure confidentiality, the complainant will be so informed. If the University cannot take disciplinary action against the alleged perpetrator because the complainant insists on confidentiality, it may pursue other steps to limit the effects of the alleged conduct and prevent its recurrence.

B. Investigation and Resolution:

Step One: Investigation. An investigator will conduct a prompt, thorough and impartial initial investigation of the complaint in the manner he or she deems necessary. The parties to the complaint each will have an opportunity to be heard and will be kept informed of the status of the investigation as deemed appropriate. As circumstances warrant, preliminary administrative actions (e.g. interim suspension, restricted access to campus facilities, no-contact orders, reassignment in University housing, academic modifications, etc.) may be taken to preserve the safety and well-being of those involved and/or the campus community.

Step Two: Informal Resolution: With the consent of the complainant and the alleged perpetrator, and if the University deems the circumstances to warrant doing so, a matter may be resolved through non-disciplinary interventions (e.g., educational, counseling, changes in housing and/or academic accommodations, administrative actions). A complainant has the right, however, to end the informal process at any time and begin a formal student conduct proceeding. Mediation, even on a voluntary basis, is not an appropriate means of resolving a sexual assault complaint.

Step Three: Formal Student Conduct Action (if initiated): Should informal resolution be inappropriate or unattainable, the matter will be referred to the appropriate student conduct process. At NYU, there is no single office that handles all disciplinary cases. An alleged policy violation may be addressed through one of the following jurisdictions:

• If the matter involves students from a single School or College and occurred in the context of an academic activity, disciplinary action is carried out by the faculty and administrators of that School or College through its student conduct process. Information about each School’s or College’s disciplinary procedures is available online at: http://www.nyu.edu/academics/schools-and-colleges.html. Matters involving students from the same School or College but which occurred in the context of an activity that was not sponsored by the School/College may be referred to the Division of Student Affairs if there are inherent University level issues.

• If the matter involves students from more than one School or College, disciplinary action is carried out under the authority of the University Senate, through its designee the Office of the Vice President for Student Affairs. A description of the University Student Disciplinary Policies and Procedures is located in Section I (The Office of Community Standards: University Disciplinary Policies and Procedures) on the following webpage: http://www.nyu.edu/life/student-life/student-communitystandards/university-student-conduct-policies.html

• Student Conduct matters at Global Academic Centers are managed by the site Director. Information about the Student Disciplinary Process for Students Enrolled at Global Academic Centers is locatedin Section VI (Student Disciplinary Process for Students Enrolled at NYU’s Global Academic Centers) on the following webpage: http://www.nyu.edu/life/student-life/student-communitystandards/the-judicial-process.html

a) Standard of Evidence: The University utilizes a standard of preponderance of the evidence (i.e., it is more likely than not that sexual

assault, harassment or another form of sexual misconduct occurred) when reviewing a complaint.

b) Disciplinary Sanctions: The specific sanctions available to the adjudicating body may differ depending on the circumstances of the matter being addressed. In general, however, sanctions imposed upon students determined to have violated this policy can include a range of sanctions including, but not limited to, warning, censure, education/counseling, disciplinary probation, suspension or dismissal from the University.

c) Notification: When the conduct involves allegations of a crime of violence or a non-forcible sex offense, a postsecondary institution is required to simultaneously provide written notification of the final results of a disciplinary proceeding against the alleged perpetrator to both the victim and the alleged perpetrator, regardless of whether the institution concluded that a violation was committed.

VII. Medical and Counseling Resources Available to Victims/Complainants:

Many services, including resources for medical and emotional well-being, are available to victims of sexual assault, harassment and other forms of sexual misconduct whether the incident occurred in New York or at one of the University’s Study Away Sites. Contact information and general advice on how to seek assistance for yourself or another person who has been subjected to such behavior can be obtained from one of the offices listed above. Counseling and additional resources are available in Section II (Specific University Policies) on the following webpage: http://www.nyu.edu/life/student-life/student-communitystandards/university-student-conduct-policies.html

New York State Laws Regarding Sex Offenses

The following is a summary description of sex offenses as they are defined in the New York State Penal Law, Sections 130.00 to 130.90. Sex offenses are ranked (first degree, second degree, etc.), and carry different punishments ranging from a few months imprisonment for misdemeanors, to up to 25 years imprisonment for felonies. Readers seeking more specific information are urged to consult the New York State Penal Code which is available as a link on the following government website: http://www.criminaljustice.ny.gov/nsor/ What constitutes consent? Consent “Lack of consent” is defined in New York State’s Penal Law as occurring in the following circumstances:

(a) forcible compulsion • actual physical force

• the threat of physical force, expressed or implied, that puts the victim in fear of being physically harmed or of another person being physically harmed

• the imminent threat to kidnap the victim or third person

(b) physically helpless • physically unable to indicate a lack

of consent (e.g. because the victim is unconscious or because of a physical disability that makes one unable to

physically or verbally communicate lack of consent)

(c) under 17 years of age • if the victim is under 11, or if a person at

least 18 (or over) has sex with someone less than 13, this constitutes a 1st degree sexual offense

• if a person 18 or over has sex with someone less than 15, this constitutes a 2nd degree sexual offense

• if a person 21 years old or over has sex with someone less than 17, this constitutes a 3rd degree sexual offense

(d) mentally incapacitated • When the victim is made temporarily

incapable of understanding or controlling his or her conduct (e.g. the victim was given a drug or other intoxicating substance without his or her consent)

(e) mentally disabled • when a person suffers from a mental

illness or condition that renders him or her incapable of understanding the nature of his or her conduct.

(f) inmate • when a person is literally or physically

under the control of others. Some examples are: The victim is an inmate in either a state or city correctional facility,

the victim is committed to a psychiatric institution, or the perpetrator is a mental health provider and the victim is her/his client.

(g) some factor other than incapacity to consent • Rape 3 and criminal sexual act 3 have been

modified with a “no means no” clause. In cases of intercourse, oral sexual conduct, or anal sexual conduct,, if the victim clearly expressed that he or she did not consent to the sex act in such a way that a reasonable person would have understood those words or acts as expressing lack of consent, this would be prosecutable as Rape in the third degree or criminal sexual act in the third degree.

What constitutes a sexual offense? If any of the following acts are perpetrated against a victim “without his or her consent,” as defined above, it is a crime under the New York State Law: Sexual Intercourse: the penetration of the penis into the vagina, however slight - in other words, if the penis goes into the vagina just a little, not in its entirety, that is considered completed “sexual intercourse”. (There is no requirement of physical injury and there is usually no requirement that ejaculation or orgasm have occurred).

Oral sexual conduct: does not require any penetration and occurs upon contact between penis and mouth, mouth and anus, or mouth and the vulva or vagina..

Anal sexual conduct: conduct between persons consisting of contact between the penis and anus.

Sexual Contact: any touching of the sexual or intimate parts of the body whether over or under clothing: • between persons not married to each

other

• done for the purpose of gratifying the sexual desire of either party

• includes the touching of the victim’s sexual or intimate parts by the perpetrator AND the touching of the perpetrator’s sexual or intimate parts by the victim

Aggravated Sexual Contact: insertion of a foreign object into the vagina, urethra, penis or rectum. Depending on the precise circumstances, this can constitute a 1st, 2nd, 3rd, or 4th degree sexual offense.

A1 | 2013 Global Academic Centers Security Report

New York University closely monitors travel advisories issued by

the U.S. Department of State as well as other governmental and international agencies and responds appropriately. Public Safety has been granted privileges by the Overseas Security Advisory Council under the U.S. Department of State. These privileges allow for access to in-depth, current information on global affairs. Select members of Public Safety and the Office of Global Programs have access to this information and to key personnel in the U.S. Department of State. Designated staff of each Academic and Research Center abroad remain in contact with the local United States Embassy, as well as local authorities, for guidance on security matters. The staff at each Center are instructed to closely monitor and adhere to both U.S. and local advisories. Similar vigilance from our exchange partner universities is requested. Appropriate announcements are communicated to students via a variety of mechanisms at

each site. In addition, security is assessed at all Academic Centers abroad by the Department of Public Safety. While access to facilities and overall security vary from site to site, entry is restricted to individuals holding NYU identification; and outside guests to the Centers are announced. New York University currently maintains overseas sites in Paris, Florence, Madrid, London, Accra, Berlin, Prague, Buenos Aires, Tel Aviv, Sydney and Shanghai, and a domestic site in Washington, D.C. Crime statistics from these locations are contained in this report and are obtained directly from each site administrator’s office. Personnel identified as campus security authorities are trained annually in relation to Clery compliance and incident report preparation. Below is a listing for each site along with contact information:

Due to the cultural differences in each of the countries, students who become the victims of crimes are encouraged to contact the appropriate site staff who will assist in coordination with local law enforcement. In the event of an emergency, law enforcement should be immediately contacted. In the event a crime occurs which necessitates a timely warning, the Academic Center’s designated Campus Security Authority, in consultation with the Director of Global Programs and NYU Depart-ment of Public Safety, will issue a site-specific Campus Safety Alert to advise community members of the event and potential risks. Security incidents are also docu-mented and sent to the Assistant Director of Public Safety for Crime Prevention, Clery Compliance and Strategic Planning at the NYU New York campus for review and additional consultant with site staff whenever necessary.

POLICIES

All NYU student conduct policies are applicable to the global sites. During orientation, these and other site specific security poli-cies and programs are discussed. Students are encouraged to remain vigilant and be responsible for their personal safety. Stu-dents seeking to report or obtain assistance regarding an incident involving one of these policies are advised to contact the appropri-ate site administrator, as noted above. The academic building of each site is staffed by a security officer who monitors access into the facility. Access into student housing ranges from keys to front doors of apartment buildings to front desk coverage. All problems, comments, and observations can be reported to site administration. Additional information can be found on NYU Global Academic Centers at http://www.nyu.edu/global/global-academic-centers.html.

2013 School of Medicine Security Report | B1

The NYU School of Medicine campus extends along First Avenue from 30th Street

to 34th Street in Manhattan’s Kip’s Bay neighborhood, which has been categorized by the city police department as a low-crime area. The number of serious crimes occurring on the School of Medicine campus is quite low. The primary function of the Security Department is to provide the safe and secure environment for all members of the School of Medicine community. In addition to their regular assignments, security staff attend New York State mandated training as well as other in-service training, which includes management of disruptive persons, fire safety, infection control protocols, Bomb Threat protocols, knowledge of the campus, information about the alarm systems and building evacuation. Even though School of Medicine security staff have no authority beyond that of private citizens, they are trained to use citizen arrest procedures as may be necessary. The Security Department is aided in its tasks by the use of various systems, such as card access, CCTV, and alarm sys-tems. Many entrances and exits, to include high security areas are monitored by either security staff and or closed circuit television equipment which has the capac-ity to record images. The card access system is integrated with the ID card system so ID cards can provide access to doors when programmed. More information about safety and security at the School of Med-icine can be found by contacting the Security Department at 212-263-5038 or visiting http://redaf.med.nyu.edu/campus-security.

Reporting ProceduresAll criminal incidents, and requests for assistance should be reported to the Security Depart-ment. Victims or witnesses may report crimes on a voluntary and confidential basis. Reports can relate to incidents or emergen-cies that occur either on or off campus. The Security Department has an Operations Center (which operates around the clock), in which most security systems ter-minate. This center receives calls for service, monitors alarms and CCTV, and dispatches resources. Incidents or emergencies may be reported there or at any location

where a School of Medicine secu-rity officer is posted. These loca-tions include residence halls and hospital facilities. If something is sensitive, or egregious you should ask for the security supervisor on duty and report the matter to him. In addition to the Security Depart-ment, the following University offices and personnel may be con-tacted to report crimes:

Student Affairs: Associate Dean for Student Affairs, Director of Student Affairs 212-263-6088.

Medical Education: Associate Dean for Curriculum, Director of Education 212-263-0748.

Human Resources: Vice President of Employee Relations, Employee Relations Manager 212-404-3714.

Once a report is received, it is assessed and investigated by security management personnel. Incidents concerning students are reported to the appropriate Dean for review and follow-up. All accounts are entered into an incident report data base. The department distributes information on campus crime to the School of Medicine community via campus media. Serious crimes, such as robbery and assault, the Security Department issues notifications called “Security Alerts” to the School of Medicine community.

Campus Facilities and ProgramsThe Facilities of the New York University School of Medicine exist to house or support the mis-sion of the institution: to teach, carry on research, and provide services. The use of certain of these facilities by university and non university groups is permit-ted under certain conditions. For information on the use of these facilities, contact the Facilities Scheduling office at 212-263-6997 or by visiting http://redaf.med.nyu.edu/rooms-spaces.

Residence HallsHousing for the School of Medi-cine is administered through the Office of Real Estate and Strategic Capital Initiative. Residential build-ings provide a 24-hour security personnel presence and CCTV in sensitive areas. Access into a resi-dential facility is restricted to cur-rent students, residents, guests or otherwise authorized visitors. All entrants, including staff and fac-ulty, will be requested to wear and display proper identification.

ClassroomsThe School of Medicine provides 24-hour security CCTV coverage In lobbies, entrances and public access ways leading to as well as in and around classroom facilities. Several classroom spaces can only be accessed via card reader.

Wellness Reporting ProceduresWhile the School of Medicine enforces the policies of the University regarding Alcohol and Substance Abuse and Sexual Assault and Harassment, students at the School of Medicine are encouraged to report problems in these areas to the Security Department, School of Medicine Student Health Services at 212-263-5489 or the School of Medicine Office of Student Affairs at 212-263-6088. Students are also encouraged to make contact with any off-campus resources as necessary.

Student MistreatmentIn addition to the University policies on harassment, assault and bias, the School of Medicine enforces the Association of American Medical Colleges (AAMC) statement on Student Mistreatment. This statement addresses alleged, perceived or real incidents of mistreatment of students based on race, religion, ethnicity, gender, sexual orientation, physical handicap or age; humiliation, psychological or physical punishment and the use of grading and other forms of assessment in a punitive manner. Further details about this policy are available in the School of Medicine Student Handbook (http://school.med.nyu.edu/studentsfaculty/student-affairs/student-resources/student-handbook).

While the policies and procedures presented in the New York University Campus Security Report are for the most part

applicable to the New York University School of Medicine, because the School of Medicine has its own administrative

infrastructure, there are a few differences in the manner by which those security policies and procedures are implemented at

the School of Medicine. These differences are summarized below. For more detailed information, please consult the

New York University School of Medicine Student Handbook at http://school.med.nyu.edu/studentsfaculty/student-affairs/

student-resources/student-handbook. The NYU Clinical Cancer Center on 34th Street is one of the non-campus sites of

NYU’s School of Medicine.

School of Medicine Annual Fire Safety Report2013-2014

The Higher Education Opportunity Act of 2008, requires academic institutions to produce an annual report that outlines annual

on-campus student housing fire-related statistics, fire safety policies and procedures. Since the majority of New York University’s

student housing is located off campus, all student residences are included. New York University publishes this information as part

of the Annual Campus Security and Fire Safety Report every October 1st. This report is available to all students, faculty, staff and

our community on the Public Safety website: http://www.nyu.edu/life/safety-health-wellness/public-safety/crime-reports-statistics.html.

Student Housing Evacuation and Drills

Residents receive residence hall specific information about fire safety and

evacuation procedures at the beginning of each term from the department of

Housing.

The following evacuation procedures are posted on the back of all apartment

entry doors.

IN THE EVENT OF A FIRE, REMAIN CALM. NOTIFY THE FIRE DEPARTMENT AND FOLLOW THE DIRECTIONS OF FIRE DEPARTMENT PERSONNEL. IF YOU MUST TAKE IMMEDIATE ACTION, USE YOUR JUDGMENT AS TO THE SAFEST COURSE OF ACTION, GUIDED BY THE FOLLOWING INFORMATION: YOU ARE IN A NON-COMBUSTIBLE (FIREPROOF) BUILDING

If The Fire Is In Your Apartment

• Close the door to the room where the fire is located and leave the apartment.

• Make sure EVERYONE leaves the apartment with you.

• Take your keys.

• Close the entrance door as you exit, but do not lock.

• Alert people on your floor by knocking on doors on your way to the exit.

• Use the nearest stairway to leave the building.

• DO NOT USE THE ELEVATOR

• Call 911 once you reach a safe location. Do not assume the fire has been

reported unless firefighters are on the scene.

• Meet the members of your household at a pre-determined location outside the

building. Notify responding emergency personnel if anyone is unaccounted

for.

If The Fire Is Not In Your Apartment

• Stay inside your apartment and listen for instructions from firefighters, unless

conditions become dangerous.

• If you must exit your apartment, first feel your apartment door and doorknob

with the back of your hand. If they are not hot, open the door slightly to check

if there is any flame or smoke in the hallway.

• If you can safely exit your apartment, follow the instructions for a “fire in your

apartment.”

• If you cannot safely exit your apartment or building, call 911 or the Fire

Department Dispatcher and inform them of your situation. Provide the

address, floor, apartment number and the number of persons present.

• Seal the front door with wet sheets or towels. Seal air ducts and any other

openings where smoke may enter.

• Open windows a few inches at the top and bottom unless flames or smoke is

coming from below.

• Do not break any windows; they may need to be closed later.

• If conditions in the apartment appear life threatening, open a window and

wave a bed sheet or towel side-to-side to attract the attention of firefighters.

• If smoke conditions worsen before help arrives, get down on the floor and take

short breaths through your nose. If possible, retreat to a balcony or terrace

away from the source of the flames, heat or smoke.

School of Medicine Fire Safety Procedures for Residents with Disabilities

Fire Safety Procedures for Residents with Disabilities

An up-to-date list of all residents who have

a disability that would significantly impede

his/her ability to evacuate a building in a

fire safety emergency is to be established

and maintained in each residence hall. The

Director of Housing will be responsible

for developing the list from information

gathered from student housing applications

and observation from Housing Staff

assigned to each residential building. In

addition, Housing department staff will

devise a means by which the names of

residents with temporary disabilities (e.g.

illness, accident, etc) can be placed on the

list of disabled students.

The aforementioned list should include the

resident’s name, nature of disability, room

location, and telephone number and is to be

placed with the Security Officer in the build-

ing lobby.

It is the responsibility of Housing staff to

meet personally with each resident who has

a disability that would impede his/her abil-

ity to evacuate the building in the event of

a fire safety emergency and advise them of

the following protocol/procedures:

Students with disabilities are not expect-

ed to immediately evacuate their room

at the sounding of the building alarm (if

the building has an alarm).

If there is a fire in his/her room, the disabled

resident is to:

• Leave the room, close but do not lock

the room door.

• Go to a safe location in the hallway.

• Pull the pull-station alarm (if one is avail-

able) or call 911 to report a fire condition.

The student may have to knock on a

neighbor’s door or use a cell phone.

• Ask another resident to inform the build-

ing staff of his/her location when he/she

reaches the lobby.

If the building alarm sounds but the fire is

not in his/her room, the disabled resident is

to remain in the room but to prepare for an

evacuation.

If the building alarm sounds and the student

with the disability is in the building but not

in his/her room, if he/she has access to a

telephone, he/she should contact the lobby

desk, Security Officer, or the Main Public

Safety office (in that order) to alert building

staff of his/her location. (Housing staff must

ensure that each student with a disability

has been given these telephone numbers,

and should urge the student to program

those numbers into his/her cell phone). If

there is no access to a telephone and the

student is able to proceed to the building

lobby, he/she should do so. If there is no

access to a telephone and the student is

unable to proceed to the building lobby, he/

she should wait in the public area for fire

department personnel to arrive during the

building “sweep.”

As soon as they arrive on the scene, fire

department personnel will be supplied

with the list of all residents with disabilities

who require evacuation assistance. (It is

the responsibility of the Security Officer to

perform this task.)
