Investigations of Students

If you decide to file a report of an incident under 丁香园AV鈥檚 sexual violence and misconduct policy, the investigation process will begin after you submit your report with the SVSPO.

The chart below illustrates the general process in cases where the Respondent (the person you allege caused you harm) is a student. Please note that this is a general guide only, and details may differ. If you have any questions about the process, please connect with an SVSPO case manager.

SVSPO gives your report to the Office of Student Support, Rights & Responsibilities. This office will review the report to determine if an investigation will occur. The office may contact you for further information, if needed, to help make that decision.

NOTE: As much as possible, all information and records will be kept confidential. The University may disclose personal information, for example, where appropriate, including where it determines that a person鈥檚 health or safety may be at risk.
