Our retaliation policy prohibits retaliation against individuals who provide information to the University, bring forth a complaint, or who are asked to cooperate in an investigation. Whether or not you participate in the University’s investigation process, you have a right to be protected from retaliation related to the information you share with the University.

Federal civil rights laws, including Title IX, make it unlawful for the University to retaliate against an individual who brings concerns about possible civil rights violations to its attention. It is also unlawful for the University to retaliate against an individual (such as a witness) for participating in the complaint or investigation process.

If the University is made aware of retaliation against a complainant, witness, or respondent by other students, employees, or third parties, the University can take action to stop the potentially retaliatory behavior, and determine what has occurred.

 

If you are experiencing retaliation, please contact Campus Civil Rights immediately so that we may address it.
