The College’s primary goals when responding to complaints of Prohibited Conduct such as sexual harassment/misconduct, domestic violence, dating violence or stalking matters involving students is to promote student safety, and to address Prohibited Misconduct and prevent it from recurring. A student should not hesitate to report Prohibited Conduct due to a concern that the investigation process may indicate that they were under the influence of alcohol or drugs at the time of the incident(s). Violations of other College policies will be handled separately from sexual misconduct complaints, and the relatively minor sanctions that may result from a violation of other College policies under the circumstances should not dissuade a student from reporting relatively serious incidents of Prohibited Conduct. The use of alcohol or drugs never makes the complainant at fault for such misconduct.
