VIII Resolution Options Overview

The Formal Grievance Process is the University’s primary resolution approach unless all Parties and the University agree to an Informal Resolution. The process considers the Parties’ preferences but is ultimately determined at the Senior Director of Student Experience and Title IX Coordinator’s discretion.

 

Resolution proceedings are private. All persons present at any time during a resolution process are expected to maintain the privacy of the proceedings in accordance with the Policy.

 

There is an expectation of privacy around what Investigators share with Parties during interviews and for any materials the institution shares with the Parties during the resolution process. The Parties have discretion to share their own knowledge and evidence with others if they choose, except for information the Parties agree not to disclose as part of an Informal Resolution. University encourages Parties to discuss any sharing of information with their Advisors before doing so.
