WHAT HAPPENS IF I FILE AN INFORMAL REPORT

An informal complaint process is a fully voluntary, structured interaction between the parties that is designed to help them address and resolve an issue at the earliest stage possible. Informal resolutions are flexible meaning the process can move forward in many different ways.   As a general rule an informal complaint process:

  1. Will not receive a comprehensive investigation.
  2. May be kept confidential.
  3. Will not be referred for official disciplinary action if an agreement between the parties and the College is reached.
Will my report be confidential?
Only those at the College that need to know will have access to the report. If a formal complaint is filed the other party would be notified at that time. A truly confidential report may be made to the College-wide Counseling Center. 
What happens if the person retaliates against me for reporting?

Policy states that “Retaliation against individuals who have filed a charge or participated in an investigation or opposed any unlawful practice is prohibited and will subject the person who retaliates to disciplinary action…”

Who will I have to talk to?

You will have to speak to the Title IX Coordinator. If you decide to file a formal complaint you will need to speak to an investigator.

What happens if I submit a formal complaint?

The other party will be notified that a complaint has been filed.
An investigation will be conducted by a trained investigator, this will include interview all involved parties and witnesses, gathering documentation related to the complaint from both parties and compiling a summary report..

What if I am not satisfied with the outcome of the hearing?

Either party has the right to appeal the outcome of a hearing.
