The Vice President for Student Affairs will issue a final written decision on the appeal no later than thirty (30) calendar days after it is filed. At any point during the formal process, the complainant has the right to file a complaint with the appropriate state or federal agency. If requested, the Title IX Coordinator or Deputy Coordinator will direct the complainant to the appropriate agency. Sexual Misconduct Contact: Barbara King, Associate Dean Sexual misconduct in any form will not be tolerated at Wilkes. The University has in place: programs to educate the campus community regarding prevention and issues surrounding sexual misconduct; training programs for staff and faculty to provide student victims with direction for assistance; conduct policies and procedures to adjudicate cases involving sexual misconduct; and, most importantly, support systems for victims. As a recipient of Federal funds, the university is required to comply with Title IX of the Higher Education Amendments of 1972, which prohibits discrimination on the basis of sex in education programs or activities. Sexual misconduct, as defined in this policy, is a form of sexual discrimination prohibited by Title IX. The complete Sexual Misconduct Policy can be found on page 132 (Appendix C). Behavioral Threat Assessment Procedures Contact: Paul Adams, Ph.D., Vice President for Student Affairs Wilkes University strives to maintain an environment that is safe from any kind of threats to the community. This requires a proactive community approach to behavioral threat assessment. If you feel that a member of the campus community (student, staff, or faculty) presents behavior or language that appears threatening to the health and safety of himself/herself or others you should do the following: - If the threat is imminent call 911 followed up by a call to Public Safety (ext. 4999). (example – you see a campus community member walking on the Greenway with a weapon) - If you are uncertain about the immediacy of the threat contact Public Safety. (example – a campus community member tells you that he saw another campus community member with a weapon) - If the threat is viewed as less than imminent please contact Paul Adams, Vicepresident for Student Affairs (408-4114), who serves as the University’s Point of Contact for the Behavioral Intervention Team. (example – a campus community member writes on his/her social media site that he/she would like to do harm to another community member) 43
- If you wish to report threatening behavior and want to remain anonymous, you can call the CARE line (408-2273). Behavioral Threat Assessment Process When a potential threat is reported to the Point of Contact (Vice-President for Student Affairs) he will determine the level of urgency and either refer the problem to the appropriate University professionals to resolve (non-urgent) or assemble the Behavioral Intervention Team (members include: Director of Public Safety; Campus Counselor; and one of the following based on the nature of the threat: Provost (faculty); functional Vice- President (staff); or Student Affairs representative (students). Other professionals may be included depending on the nature of the potential threat. The Behavioral Intervention Team will gather enough information to make an informed and timely decision to resolve the potential threat. Anyone who reports a potential threat will receive follow up information from the Point of Contact. Once the potential threat has been assessed the appropriate action will be taken guided by University policy (i.e. – emergency action plan, student discipline process, involuntary suspension policy, etc.). The Behavioral Threat Assessment Process is in place to proactively intervene before concerning behavior poses a real threat to the campus community. For it to be effective all campus community members should error on the side of caution and report concerns to the appropriate campus resources.
