Additional Processes

Relationship with Human Resources

The process for conducting investigations of complaints against Respondents who are University employees is similar to the process for investigating complaints against students, subject to University policies and procedures that apply to the respondent (see “Equal Employment Opportunity and Anti-Harassment” policy). Human Resources has primary responsibility for investigations of complaints against employees, with support from the division of Student Affairs as dictated by HR to ensure that the Complainant is provided all the notices required by this policy and receives appropriate supports.

Campus-Wide Concerns

When there is insufficient information to conduct a formal investigative process, but it is determined that there has been an impact on the campus community, the case will be referred to the CARE (Campus Awareness, Response, & Education) Team. The CARE Team will review the situation and develop a response plan to assist the community in processing the situation and move forward together.
