Public Records Request

Under Wisconsin Public Records Law, records generated by the UW-Whitewater Police Department may be subject to release. The department processes and releases all records in a reasonable and timely manner, in compliance with the State of Wisconsin’s public records laws.

Records may be obtained the following ways:

• In person at UW-Whitewater University Police main headquarters (Goodhue Hall)
• Emailed to police@uww.edu
• Faxed to 262-472-5746
• Called in to the non-emergency line 262-472-4660

To request an accident report, please visit the Wisconsin Crash Reports website.  

UW-Whitewater Police Department may bill requesters $0.25 for each physical copy made, but will not charge reproduction costs for electronic copies of records that exist in electronic format.  A location fee may be charged if the cost to locate the record(s) in question is $50.00 or more.  Location fees will be calculated at the hourly salary and benefit rate for the lowest-paid employee capable of performing the task.  No fee will be charged for the cost of reviewing records for possible redaction or removal of confidential information.  Requests which exceed a total cost of $5.00 may require prepayment.  All associated costs may be paid via check, money order, or cash. Payment is required before records are released to you.

If you have questions, please call the UW-Whitewater Police Department at (262) 472-4660.
