Sexual Assault – Non-Consensual Sexual Contact, Fondling

September 1, 2022

On August 30, 2022, the Office of Title IX received a report of non-consensual sexual contact in the form of unwanted touching or fondling that occurred at approximately 4 pm inside of Ward Hall. It was reported that a Rollins student, while walking up the stairs, had an unknown male subject touch them without their consent. Campus Safety was able to piece this information together with a trespassing case that occurred during the same time period, and the student positively identified the same individual as the one involved in the case. Reporting options have been shared with the student, and we are following institutional policies to ensure overall safety to campus. The reporting party is being provided the appropriate level of care and resources and is connected with the proper offices on campus.      

Based upon footage from the CCTV system and eye-witness accounts, an unaffiliated male subject gained access to Ward Hall several times during a 30-minute time period when residents either held the door open or he was allowed to piggy-back into the building. Once inside the building, he stayed in common areas but was seen trying to open students’ doors that were locked. Ultimately residents noticed his behavior and attempted to confront the subject while also calling for Campus Safety to assist. After realizing that he was being looked for, the subject hastily left the building and returned to his vehicle, which was parked behind Olin Library. Campus Safety attempted to approach the subject twice while on campus, each time he recklessly sped off campus, drove over curbs, and almost caused accidents on Fairbanks Ave. Winter Park Police were notified of the trespassing and provided information pertaining to the subject’s car.

The subject is described as a white male, early 20s in age, approximately 5’ 10”, with black hair pulled back in a ponytail, patchy facial hair, dark rimmed glasses, wearing a light black sweater over a t-shirt with jeans and black shoes. He was driving a 2008, gray, Acura MDX sports utility vehicle. To aid the campus community, photos of the subject have been attached to this notification. If you have any additional information pertaining to this case or see this subject on campus, please contact us at 407-646-2999 or campussafety@rollins.edu or Winter Park Police Department at 407-644-1313. It is important to note that when living in a communal environment, safety is a shared responsibility. If you do not recognize a person attempting to access your building or if you feel that someone’s behavior is suspicious, please take action by either asking the person who they are and/or reporting the behavior to a faculty member, staff member, or Campus Safety. Even in safe communities such as our campus and the City of Winter Park, incidents can and do happen.

Sexual violence can happen to anyone, and it is not the only crime that can occur on a college campus. College students have the opportunity to look out for their friends, speak up about sexual violence, and take steps to increase personal safety.

At 5:09 PM on May 8, 2022, the Campus Safety Department received a report that an unlawful entry, no-force burglary occurred at the Sutton Apartments.

Campus Safety strongly urges the community to report anything that you perceive to be suspicious activity immediately; see something, say something.

Hate Crime – In the form of Vandalism based on Sexual Orientation

Case #21-329

September 30, 2021

At approximately 7:00 AM on September 30, 2021, a report of bias/hate-based vandalism was reported to Campus Safety by a staff member. Upon initial investigation, we discovered there were derogatory comments based on sexual orientation written on a wall in the dugout of the Rollins Softball Stadium. The vandalism was documented and immediately removed. It is unknown when the vandalism occurred or who may be responsible. At this time, Campus Safety is investigating this vandalism.

All appropriate notifications have been made across campus. Bias/hate-based crimes of any magnitude have a disparate impact on individuals and our community as a whole. The implied message of this particular incident is hurtful and is in direct opposition to our mission of global citizenship and responsible leadership. We hope that sharing incidents like this allow for a constructive dialogue that promotes a stronger more inclusive community.

Campus Safety strongly urges the community to report anything that you perceive to be suspicious activity immediately; see something, say something. If you have information that might be helpful in this investigation, contact Rollins College Campus Safety by telephone at 407-646-2999 (campus extension X2999) or via e-mail at campussafety@rollins.edu.

Burglary - unlawful entry, no force
Case # 21-218
August 13, 2021

At 10:04 AM on August 13, 2021, the Campus Safety Department received a report that an unlawful entry, no-force burglary, occurred in Cornell Social Sciences building. The burglary occurred between June 07, 2021, and August 13, 2021. It was reported that a faculty member had left a Laptop on their desk, before leaving for summer break. It is unclear whether or not the faculty office door was locked. The faculty member does not wish to file a report with the Winter Park Police Department at this time. Due to the nature of the circumstance, it is likely that this is a crime of opportunity that was perpetrated by someone walking through that building. At this time no other information is known.

Campus Safety strongly urges the community to report anything that you perceive to be suspicious activity immediately; see something, say something. Please secure spaces that are unoccupied to reduce the risk of someone taking advantage of a vulnerable situation. Locking your door when away from your room or while you are sleeping will help reduce the risk of a variety of crimes from taking place. While the campus is not fully populated, it is especially important to take extra precautions and take note of situations that seem odd or out of the ordinary. Do not hesitate to contact Campus Safety for assistance or to ensure that space is secured.

If you have any additional information that might assist Winter Park Police in their investigation, please contact them at 407-644-1313 or contact the Rollins College Campus Safety Department at 407/646-2999 (X:2999) or via email at campussafety@rollins.edu.

Hate Crime – Destruction, Damage, or Vandalism of Property Based on Identity or Race

Case #21-128

April 11th, 2021

In the very early morning hours, on April 11, 2021, an incident was reported to Campus Safety by residents of Strong Hall where their personal property was destroyed, damaged, or vandalized.  Upon initial investigation, it was learned that an unknown person began banging on hallway walls, in an attempt to disrupt those residents in the area, and destroyed posters attached to residents’ doors that supported the African American and LGBTQ+ communities. Based upon the circumstances surrounding the case, we have classified this incident as a hate crime in the form of destruction, damage, or vandalism of property based on identity and race. At this time, Campus Safety is investigating and working with on-campus partners in Student Affairs to identify the responsible party.

All appropriate notifications have been made across campus to facilitate support for those immediately impacted. Bias/hate-based crimes of any magnitude have a disparate impact on individuals and our community as a whole.

Hate Crime – In the form of Intimidation based on Race

Case #21-101

March 22, 2021

On March 21, 2021, a report of bias/hate-based intimidation was reported to Campus Safety by members of the Student Affairs team as they worked with a student and their family. We learned that an African American student residing in Strong Hall was in their room on Saturday, March 20, 2021, at approximately 1015pm when they heard footsteps walking down their hallway. At approximately the same time as the footsteps were outside of the students’ room, a male voice stated, “I hate ni**as”. Based upon the circumstances surrounding the case, we have classified this incident as a hate crime in the form of intimidation based on race. At this time, Campus Safety is investigating and working with on-campus partners in Residential Life and the Center for Inclusion and Campus Involvement to identify the responsible party.

Burglary - unlawful entry, no force
Case # 21-052
February 19, 2021

At 1:30 PM on February 19, 2021, the Campus Safety Department received a report that an unlawful entry, no force burglary, occurred in a residential room at Ward Hall between 12:00 PM and 12:10 PM on 2/18/2021. It was reported that a student had left their room unlocked and bolted open during the aforementioned time and returned to find a valuable piece of jewelry missing from their room. The student does not wish to file a report with the Winter Park Police Department at this time. Due to the nature of the circumstance, it is likely that this is a crime of opportunity that was perpetrated by either another resident or a guest of a resident. At this time no other information is known.

Campus Safety strongly urges the community to report anything that you perceive to be suspicious activity immediately; see something, say something. Please secure spaces that are unoccupied to reduce the risk of someone taking advantage of a vulnerable situation. Locking your door when away from your room or while you are sleeping will help reduce the risk of a variety of crimes taking place. While the campus is not fully populated, it is especially important to take extra precautions and take note of situations that seem odd or out of the ordinary. Do not hesitate to contact Campus Safety for assistance or to ensure that space is secured.

If you have any additional information that might assist Winter Park Police in their investigation, please contact them at 407-644-1313 or contact the Rollins College Campus Safety Department at 407/646-2999 (X:2999) or via email at campussafety@rollins.edu.

Novel Coronavirus, COVID – 19

April 1, 2020

In compliance with the Jeanne Clery Disclosure of Campus Security Policy and Campus Crime Statistics Act (the “Clery Act”), 20 U.S.C. 1092 (f), Rollins College issues timely notices to notify the campus community of Clery Act crimes or other serious incidents that the College determines to represent a serious and ongoing threat to the campus. The College may distribute timely notices using a variety of means, including emails, text messages, flyers, and website announcements posted on the Campus Safety website.

Due to the unfolding situation surrounding COVID-19, institutions of higher education have been instructed by the Department of Education to communicate with campus communities when specific and/or ongoing threats to the campus community have been identified.

Rollins College activated portions of the Emergency Operations Plan in early February 2020 in response to the growing threat of COVID-19 to our students studying abroad. We continued to receive direction from federal, state, and local officials aimed at mitigating the threat and reducing the risk to all members of our campus community. Full activation of the Emergency Operations Plan took place on February 28, 2020, as the increased threat to the United States and institutions of higher education became clearer. Residential students were asked to vacate the campus by March 20, 2020, and classes shifted to virtual, synchronous instruction on March 23, 2020.

As members of the campus community returned home and following continued communication from the institution, this week, we have begun to hear about members of the campus community who have either tested positive or are presumptively positive. In each case, a team of individuals, including a member of our Wellness Center staff, is assigned to investigate the threat level, make appropriate recommendations, and ensure those recommendations are carried out. To be clear, none of the current student residents still remaining on campus have reported symptoms. If they should, our proactive approach of relocating them to a building that would allow for additional space and personal bathroom facilities will facilitate their care and ability to quarantine. While this is a dynamic situation that is changing daily, we have only had reports of students with symptoms or who were presumptively positive, but we have not had a student report that they have actually tested positive for COVID-19.

Areas of campus that may have been impacted are cordoned off until cleaning, consistent with CDC guidelines, can be completed and reviewed by a member of our Wellness Center staff.

We ask that you continue to be vigilant with hand washing and social distancing, following all applicable CDC guidelines. Anyone with infection concerns should call their healthcare provider to discuss symptoms and requirements for monitoring. If you feel you have symptoms and need to be seen, please inform the healthcare facility prior to your arrival so that they can prepare appropriately. The closest emergency room to Rollins is Advent Health Winter Park. If you are a student who has tested positive or is presumptively positive, please contact the Director of Student Life, Student and Family Care Penelope Strater at pstrater@rollins.edu.

If you are a faculty/staff member who has tested positive or are presumptively positive, please contact Associate Vice President, HR & Risk Management Matt Hawks mhawks@rollins.edu.

If you have questions please contact Campus Safety, at 407-646-2999 or via email at campussafety@rollins.edu. For any additional important or significant updates to available information, we will send notifications to our community via email. You can also check our website for continuous updates and helpful information.

Sexual Assault – Non-Consensual Sexual Contact, Fondling

March 22, 2020

On March 22, 2020, at approximately 8:15 pm, a Rollins College Campus Safety Officer, while on routine patrol of campus, heard a woman yell in the vicinity of the Warren Administration parking lot. The officer immediately went to investigate and found a staff member in distress who stated she had just been assaulted by an unknown male. She reported that as she was entering her vehicle in the Warren Administration lot, a male approached on a bicycle to speak with her. After getting off of the bike, he attempted to hug her and fondled her breasts without her consent. She yelled and drew the attention of a passing minivan, which stopped on Holt Avenue and scared the perpetrator, who got back onto his bicycle and fled the scene down Holt Avenue in the direction of Park Avenue.

The suspect was described as being African-American, approximately 6’ tall, with a slim build, and clean-shaven. Due to the interoperability of our radio system with the Winter Park Police Department, a unit was on the scene in moments, and a canvass of the surrounding area for a person matching the description was unsuccessful. Campus Safety is still actively engaged in identifying the perpetrator, who is not believed to be a member of the campus community. If you have any additional information pertaining to this case, please contact us at 407-646-2999 or campussafety@rollins.edu or Winter Park Police Department at 407-644-1313.

Care and emergency support services were offered to the staff member. It is important to remember that if you are sexually assaulted it is not your fault – help, and support are available. If you or a friend has experienced sexual assault, we encourage you to seek help and report it.

Timely Notification • Burglary, Forcible Entry

Case #20-048

February 5, 2020

On February 5, 2020, the Rollins College Campus Safety Department received a report that a forcible entry burglary occurred at the Rollins Softball Field at the South Martin Luther King, Jr. Park. At 8:30 AM, it was reported that an unknown person had broken an exterior window to gain access to the lounge area. The door locking mechanism was also damaged in an attempt to gain access to the room. Nothing was reported missing from the room or the property, but due to the condition of the locking mechanism and the broken window, the intention was to commit burglary.

Campus Safety strongly urges the community to report anything that you perceive to be suspicious activity immediately; see something, say something. Please secure spaces that are unoccupied to reduce the risk of a crime of opportunity. Locking your door when away from your room or while you are sleeping will help reduce the risk of a variety of crimes from taking place.

If you have any additional information that might assist Winter Park Police in their investigation, please contact them at 407-644-1313 or contact the Rollins College Campus Safety Department at 407/646-2999 (X:2999) or via email at campussafety@rollins.edu.
