File a Title IX Sexual Harassment Formal Complaint

 



  • What to expect when filing a Title IX Sexual Harassment Formal Complaint: 
    Upon receipt of a Formal complaint, the Title IX Coordinator or a Deputy Title IX Coordinator will contact the Complainant with information on available resources. The Office of Civil Rights and Title IX Compliance will conduct an initial inquiry into the Formal Complaint to determine whether the allegations, if substantiated, would rise to the level of a violation of University Policy. If the conduct alleged in the Formal Complaint would not constitute a violation of the Interim Policy on Title IX Sexual Harassment even if proved, if it did not occur in Ë¿¹ÏÊÓƵ’s Education Program or Activities, did not occur against a person in the United States, or occurred prior to August 14, 2020, the Office of Civil Rights and Title IX Compliance will dismiss the Formal Complaint with regard to that conduct under the Interim Policy on Title IX Sexual Harassment. In the event of a dismissal, the Office of Civil Rights and Title IX Compliance will provide written notice of the dismissal to both parties, advising them of their right to appeal. If the conduct alleged in the Formal Complaint passes initial inquiry, the office will proceed with a formal investigation and hearing pursuant to the Interim Policy on Title IX Sexual Harassment.
