Level 3: Immediate Threat
Whenever there is an immediate threat to the safety of any person, you should
always contact the Campus Police immediately at (314) 516-5155. This includes
behavior that could be classified as unlawful harassment, stalking, or a death
threat. After a disruptive incident has occurred and a report has been taken, the
Campus Police customarily involves Student Affairs, Student Conduct and Community
Standards, and Counseling Services, and other campus offices in responding to the
incident. You can expect these and other offices to provide appropriate consultation
and assistance on an ongoing basis where a serious problem has occurred. When an
incident is sufficiently serious and attracts media attention, senior officers of
Student Affairs and Campus Police will take the lead in communicating with the press,
in conjunction with Media Relations and other appropriate offices.
