Frequently Asked Questions

Is there a time limit for filing a complaint?

Complaints should be brought forward as soon as possible after the conduct occurs. While there is no stated timeframe for making a Complaint, prompt reporting will better enable the Campus to respond to the Complaint, determine the relevant issues, and provide an appropriate Remedy and/or action. All incidents should be reported even if a significant amount of time has passed. However, delaying a report or Complaint may impede the University’s ability to conduct an investigation or take appropriate remedial actions.

Can my complaint be kept confidential?

Information regarding the Complaint may be shared on a “need to know” basis with other Campus Employees, and with law enforcement (with the Complainant’s written consent), except for some limited exceptions. (See Executive Order 1095.) The DHR Administrator and/or Title IX Coordinator shall endeavor to honor any request for confidentiality; however, the DHR Administrator and/or Title IX Coordinator shall also weigh requests for confidentiality against the University’s duty to provide a safe and nondiscriminatory environment for all members of the Campus community. Confidentiality, therefore, cannot be ensured.
