Dear students, faculty, staff, and other members
of the UWM campus community:

Recently, the UWM Police Department learned that a registered sex
offender, Eugene Nelson, had enrolled in classes at UWM for the Spring
2008 semester.  Individuals with criminal histories are permitted by law
to pursue higher education.  In this case, due to the nature of the
crimes committed by Mr. Nelson over 20 years ago, I concluded that
special efforts were required to ensure the safety of the campus
community.

We have been closely monitoring the situation, while working
strategically with Mr. Nelson’s parole officer and his UWM instructors
to develop significant restrictions for his time on campus.  On Monday
and Tuesday of next week, the UWM Police Department will be visiting
with each of the classes in which he is enrolled to answer questions of
fellow students.  He will not be present on campus those days.

Mr. Nelson’s restrictions currently include a prohibition of being on
campus for any reason other than attending class.  He will be escorted
by the UWM Police Department to and from his daytime classes on campus,
and escorted off campus no later than 3:30 p.m.  He is specifically
restricted from being in the Union, Klotsche Athletic Facilities or
Golda Meir Library at any time.

For more information, please go to the UWM Police website:

Any member of the campus community may attend an informational session
about this notification on Friday, Feb. 8, 2008, at 9:00 a.m., in the
Sandburg Flicks.

Any individual who believes the restrictions are being violated should
contact the UWM Police Department.
