As a student organization leader, you build many relationships with friends, members, and many others who trust you as a leader. If an individual shares with you that they experienced an incident of sexual misconduct, there are resources available on campus through the Title IX Office and other offices. The Title IX Office is responsible for receiving and responding to reports of sexual misconduct (Policy 1340) and Title IX sexual harassment (Policy 1346), including dating and domestic violence, sexual assault, sexual exploitation, sexual harassment, stalking, and non-consensual relationships. Students can also connect with Victim Advocacy Services if they would like to explore resources and options in a confidential setting. More information on resources and options can be found on the Title IX Office website.
