The MSU Police Department is sending this notice as a reminder to students that intoxication does not excuse sexual assault. Forcing sexual contact with another person without consent is against both the law and MSU policy. Someone who is passed out, unconscious, or incapacitated because of drugs or alcohol is unable to give consent, and sexual contact without consent is sexual assault. Rape is never the victim's fault.

MSU Police would like to remind you to never take an open drink from someone you do not know and to never leave your drink unattended. Additionally, always go out with friends, and when you do go out, look after each other. If you notice someone is intoxicated, stay with the intoxicated person and get them to a safe place. Trust your instincts and take care of one another.
