*Note: If you are comfortable, ask the person to stop. Write down everything including: what happened, dates and times, what exactly was said or done, who said/did it, and any witnesses who were there. Include as much detail as possible, and keep notes about every time it happens or happened. If it happens again, write down the details while the memory is fresh. Save any emails, texts, letters, or messages about the harassment, or between you and the harasser. Gather them in one place, at home, on a personal email account, or in another safe place not at work. These notes will be helpful if you decide to report in the future. Talk to a lawyer.

 

You decide what happens next!

  • If you choose to report the incident to the University, the Title IX Coordinator will reach out to you to schedule a meeting. This meeting will explain all the support that might be available in your circumstances. You are not obligated to file a formal grievance to access these supports.
  • The formal complaint process will also be explained to you. You will decide if you would like to move forward with a formal complaint.
