Dear University of Oregon community member:

Campus safety is a top priority for the University of Oregon. We are pleased to share that our 2020 Annual Campus Security and Fire Safety Report is now available online.

This report, developed in compliance with the Jeanne Clery Disclosure of Campus Security Policy and Campus Crime Statistics Act (Clery Act), provides up-to-date information about personal safety, crime reporting, crime prevention programs and other resources. This report also contains crime statistics and fire safety information for the previous three calendar years.

The report also details the UO’s updated standard operating procedures for complaints involving discrimination or harassment, following changes to the federal Title IX rules this year.

In recognition of the impact across the nation from the COVID-19 pandemic, the U.S. Department of Education moved the publication deadline for the report this year from October 1 to December 31.

We encourage students, employees, and other campus community members to familiarize themselves with UO resources and webpages devoted to campus safety and security, including:

  • UO Alerts. The university uses the UO Alert system to notify the campus community about emergency situations via email and text message. You can sign up for text message alerts at the UO Alerts website.
  • UOregon Mobile App. Safety resources, including safe ride options for students, are included in the free UOregon Mobile App, available for iOS and Android platforms.
  • SAFE website. Students seeking assistance, support, or resources related to sexual assault, sexual harassment, dating or domestic violence, or stalking should visit the SAFE website, or contact the 24-Hour Crisis Hotline at 541-346-SAFE (7233).
  • Ducks Do Something. Additional information about sexual violence prevention, substance abuse prevention, and other prevention and awareness resources can be found on our prevention website.
  • Safety resources. Valuable safety resources are available on the UO’s One Stop page.
  • Employee resources. A list of on- and off-campus resources for employees relating to crime prevention, reporting, and other services is available here.
  • UO Police Department (UOPD). The university encourages all campus community members to promptly report crimes to UOPD at 541-346-2919 (or dial 9-1-1 for emergencies). Crime information and resources are also available at the UOPD website.
  • Clery Act. For more information about the Clery Act and its requirements, see the UO’s Clery website.
