Supportive measures may vary depending on what the College deems to be reasonably available. These measures may include but are not limited to: counseling; extensions of deadlines and other course-related adjustments; campus escort services; increased security and monitoring of certain areas of the campus; restrictions on contact applied to one or more parties; leaves of absence; changes in class, work, housing, or extracurricular or any other activity, regardless of whether there is or is not a comparable alternative; and training and education programs related to sex-based harassment. Complainants are eligible for supportive measures at the time their identity is known to the Title IX Coordinator. Respondents are eligible for supportive measures at the time that notice of an alleged complaint has been given.
Supportive measures cannot unreasonably burden either party and must be designed to protect the safety of the parties or the College’s educational environment, or to provide support during the College’s grievance procedures or during the informal resolution process. The College will not impose such measures for punitive or disciplinary reasons.
The College may, as appropriate, modify or terminate supportive measures at the conclusion of the grievance procedures or at the conclusion of the informal resolution process, or the College may continue them beyond that point.
The College will not disclose information about any supportive measures to persons other than the person to whom they apply, including informing one party of supportive measures provided to another party, unless necessary to provide the supportive measure or restore or preserve a party’s access to the education program or activity.
If the party is a student with disabilities, the Title IX Coordinator or assigned Title IX Deputy Coordinator may consult, as appropriate, with the individual or office that the College has designated to provide support to students with disabilities to determine how to comply with Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973, 29 U.S.C. 794, in the implementation of supportive measures.
