What happens after a Complainant files a complaint?
Once a formal complaint is received, a staff member from the Office of Gender Equity & Title IX will:
- Reach out to the Complainant to offer supportive measures;
- Ensure the complaint is filed under the appropriate policy and procedure;
- Notify the Respondent of the complaint in writing;
- Inform both parties of their rights, including the right to an Advisor of their choice; and
- Initiate an investigation, if appropriate.
