Show 1.26.200! CRIMES from • A1 by UVU students, but Sprague believes that more incidents of lewdness have occurred. While victims of sex crimes tend to be women, males have reported offenses as well. "The one that sticks out in my mind involved a guy who was doing his business in a bathroom stall and realized that another guy was watching him over the dividing wall. He popped up, opened the door, and laid him out flat," Sprague said. There are video cameras installed throughout campus which allows the Utah Valley University Police Department (UVUPD) to identify and apprehend suspects, but it can be difficult to observe everything. This is where some responsibility is lain on the shoulders of witnesses to report the crimes being committed. In these cases, the UVUPD are often able to look back through the recordings to search for the offender. To students who are on campus late into the night, a car parked relatively close must seem miles away. Sprague reminds that students are always welcome to call UVUPD if they feel unsafe and they will work with students to insure security. "I still feel that we should improve the lighting at some of the crosswalks and a few locations on campus, but hopefully students will feel safer with the small flashlight key chain and whistle provided by UVUSA in those areas until we get that extra lighting," said Student Body President Trevor Tooke. Suggestions for increased safety measures can be given to UVUSA and they will work with UVUPD in implementing them. By increasing the usage of UVUPD as a safety resource and by assisting them through reporting crimes as soon as they happen, more offenders will be apprehended and campus crime rates will hopefully begin to decline. This stairwell on the south end of the library is secluded enough to attract sex crimes.
