Campus Public Safety

The Clery Act is a federal statute requiring all colleges and universities participating in federal student aid programs to publish an annual security report that accurately discloses campus crime statistics and security information. This report may be found on the UPIKE website at http://www.upike.edu/StudentServices/publicsafety/crime_reporting.

 Sexual Assault Prevention

The University of Pikeville is committed to providing a supportive learning environment and fostering safe, healthy relationships among our students. As such, the institution and members of our community will not tolerate the offenses of dating violence, domestic violence, sexual assault and stalking. The University encourages any member of the University community who has experienced sexual harassment, sexual assault, domestic violence, dating violence, or stalking, or knows of another member of the community who has experienced sexual harassment, sexual assault, domestic violence, dating violence or stalking, to report the incident to the University. In case of an emergency or ongoing threat, a survivor should get to a safe location and call 911. Calling 911 will connect you with local police. Students and employees who have experienced sexual harassment, sexual assault, domestic violence, dating violence, or stalking should report incidents to Dr. Bethany Kingery, who serves as the University’s Title IX Coordinator at bethkingery@upike.edu or 606-218-5344.
