An alert was sent out to the campus, including students, by Patrick Gagnon, director of Safety and Security at the college, on Wednesday, April 1, around 5 p.m., according to Ryan Duel, director of Media Relations.

The victim reportedly described the man as caucasian and about six feet tall.

St. Lawrence University says they are investigating the incident.
