The College encourages individuals who have witnessed or experienced acts of Discrimination, Harassment, Sexual Misconduct, Retaliation, or other prohibited conduct to report the misconduct. However, the College understands that there are many barriers to reporting, both individual and societal. Not every individual will choose to make a formal report but still may need someone to speak with in confidentiality who is not required to report the incident to the College’s Title IX/Civil Rights Coordinator. For such individuals, the College offers limited Counseling through the Office of Counseling and Wellness Services.
The Director of Counseling and Wellness Services is a professional counselor and is subject to legal confidentiality. This prohibits the release of information without an individual’s express consent, except as required by law. If someone makes a report of Discrimination, Harassment, Sexual Misconduct, Retaliation, or other prohibited conduct to the College’s confidential resource, the individual will be provided with options and information on the steps of submitting a voluntary, confidential report to the Clery Compliance Officer. This Report permits the Clery Compliance Officer to determine if the incident should be reported among the crime statistics in the Annual Security Report. Personal information is NOT disclosed in the crime statistics.

The College’s counseling services are limited. In an effort to support an individual’s rights to speak with someone confidentially, the College maintains a Community Assistance Resource page.
Supportive measures are free non-disciplinary, non-punitive services offered to the Complainant and/or Respondent, by the College, as appropriate and reasonably available.
In applying supportive measures, any services that are provided to the Complainant or the Respondent will be kept confidential unless disclosure is necessary to provide the service. Supportive measures restore or preserve equal access to the College’s educational and work programs and activities without unreasonably burdening the other Party. They are designed to protect the safety of all Parties, the College’s educational environment, and/or deter sexual misconduct.
Examples of Supportive Measures may include, but are not limited to
