*Data for (on-campus) Sex Offense were
also reported anonymously to a Victim’s Advocacy Center for
these reporting years and are included in these totals. A vast majority
of Non-forcible Sex Offenses are acquaintance assaults. Montana State
University’s strong victims’ assistance resources and
public education programs on women’s safety encourages reporting
and reflects sensitivity and trust in campus services, not a higher
incident of assaults.
