Sexual Harassment/Title IX

1000.340   SEXUAL HARASSMENT/TITLE IX PROCEDURE

A. PURPOSE

Wenatchee Valley College recognizes its responsibility to investigate, resolve, implement corrective measures, and monitor the educational environment and workplace to stop, remediate, and prevent discrimination on the basis of sex, as required by Title IX of the Educational Amendments of 1972, Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, the Violence Against Women Reauthorization Act, and Washington State’s Law Against Discrimination, and their implementing regulations. To this end, Wenatchee Valley College has enacted this procedure for receiving and investigating sexual harassment allegations arising during education programs and activities. Any individual found responsible for violating this procedure is subject to disciplinary action up to and including dismissal from Wenatchee Valley College educational programs and activities and/or termination of employment.

Application of this procedure is restricted to allegations of “sexual harassment,” as that term is defined in 34 C.F.R. §106.30. Nothing in this procedure limits or otherwise restricts the college’s ability to investigate and pursue discipline based on alleged violations of other federal, state, and local laws, their implementing regulations, and other college policies prohibiting gender discrimination through processes set forth in the college’s code of student conduct, employment contracts, employee handbooks and collective bargaining agreements.

Discrimination and discriminatory harassment are addressed separately in the college’s discrimination and discriminatory harassment policy 000.330 and procedure 1000.330.

B. DEFINITIONS

For purposes of this procedure, the following terms are defined as follows:

1. Complainant: an individual who is alleged to be the victim of conduct that could constitute sexual harassment.
2. Consent: knowing, voluntary and clear permission by word or action, to engage in mutually agreed upon sexual activity. Each party has the responsibility to make certain that the other has consented before engaging in the activity. For consent to be valid, there must be at the time of the act of sexual intercourse or sexual contact actual words or conduct indicating freely given agreement to have sexual intercourse or sexual contact.
   
   A person cannot consent if they are unable to understand what is happening or is disoriented, helpless, asleep or unconscious for any reason, including due to alcohol or other drugs. An individual who engages in sexual activity when the individual knows, or should know, that the other person is physically or mentally incapacitated has engaged in nonconsensual conduct.
   
   Intoxication is not a defense against allegations that an individual has engaged in nonconsensual sexual conduct.
   
   
3. Formal Complaint: a writing submitted by the complainant or signed by the Title IX coordinator alleging sexual harassment against a respondent and requesting that the college conduct an investigation.
4. Education Program or Activity: locations, events, or circumstances over which the college exercised substantial control over both the respondent and the context in which the alleged sexual harassment occurred. It also includes any building owned or controlled by a student organization officially recognized by the college.
5. Respondent: an individual who has been reported to be the perpetrator of conduct that could constitute sexual harassment.
6. Sexual Harassment: for purposes of these procedures, sexual harassment occurs when a respondent engages in the following discriminatory conduct on the basis of sex:
   
   
   1. Quid Pro Quo Harassment: a college employee conditioning the provision of an aid, benefit, or service of the college on an individual’s participation in unwelcome sexual conduct.
   2. Hostile Environment: unwelcome conduct that a reasonable person would find to be so severe, pervasive, and objectively offensive that it effectively denies a person equal access to the college’s educational programs or activities or college employment.
      
      Examples of behaviors that may rise to the level of sexual harassment and, therefore, are prohibited include but are not limited to the following:
      1. Physical assault.
      2. Direct or implied threats that submission to sexual advances will be a condition of employment, work status, promotion, grades, or letters of recommendation.

         • Remarks of a sexual nature about an individual’s clothing, body, or speculations about previous sexual experiences.
         • Persistent, unwanted attempts to change a professional relationship to an amorous relationship.
         • Subtle propositions for sexual activity or direct propositions of a sexual nature.
         • Uninvited letters, e-mails, telephone calls, or other correspondence referring to or depicting sexual activities.
   3. Sexual Assault: sexual assault includes the following conduct:

      2. Nonconsensual Sexual Contact: any actual or attempted sexual touching, however slight, with any body part or object, by a person upon another person that is without consent and/or by force. Sexual touching includes any bodily contact with the breasts, groin, mouth, or other bodily orifice of another individual, or any other bodily contact in a sexual manner.
      3. Incest: sexual intercourse or sexual contact with a person known to be related to them, either legitimately or illegitimately, as an ancestor, descendant, brother, or sister of either wholly or half related. Descendant includes stepchildren, and adopted children under the age of 18.
      4. Statutory Rape: consensual intercourse between a person who is 18 years of age or older, and a person who is under the age of 16.

8. Summary Suspension: an emergency suspension of a student respondent pending investigation and resolution of disciplinary proceedings pursuant to the procedure and standards set forth in 1400.115 student discipline procedure.
9. Supportive Measures: non-disciplinary, non-punitive individualized services offered as appropriate, as reasonably available, and without fee or charge to the complainant or respondent regardless of whether the complainant or the Title IX coordinator has filed a formal complaint. Supportive measures restore or preserve a party’s access to the college’s education programs and activities without unreasonably burdening the other party, as determined through an interactive process between the Title IX coordinator and the party. Supportive measures include measures designed to protect the safety of all parties and/or the college’s educational environment and/or to deter sexual harassment or retaliation. Supportive measures may include, but are not limited to, (1) counseling and other medical assistance, (2) extensions of deadlines or other course-related adjustments, (3) modifications of work or class schedules, (4) leaves of absence, (5) increased security or monitoring of certain areas of campus, and (6) imposition of orders prohibiting the parties from contacting one another in housing or work situations. Determinations about whether to impose a one-way no contact order must be made on a case-by-case basis. If supportive measures are not provided, the Title IX coordinator must document in writing why this was clearly reasonable under the circumstances.
10. Title IX Administrators: the Title IX coordinator, Title IX investigators, the vice president of student services and the Student Conduct Committee members and any advisors assigned to the parties by the college during Title IX disciplinary proceedings.
11. Title IX Coordinator: person responsible for processing Title IX complaints and conducting and/or overseeing formal investigations and informal resolution processes under this grievance procedure. Among other things, the Title IX coordinator is responsible for:

    5. Maintaining accurate records of all complaints, reports, and referrals, and retaining investigation files, complaints, reports, and referrals in compliance with the applicable records retention schedules or federal or state law, whichever is longer.
    6. Conducting investigations or assigning and overseeing investigations.
    7. Engaging in an interactive process with both parties to identify and provide supportive measures that ensure during the investigation and disciplinary processes that the parties have equitable access to education programs and activities and are protected from further discrimination or retaliation.
    8. Upon completion of an investigation, issuing or overseeing the issuance of a final investigation report to the parties and the appropriate disciplinary authority in compliance with this grievance procedure.
    9. Recommending non-disciplinary corrective measures to stop, remediate, and/or prevent recurrence of discriminatory conduct to disciplinary authorities and other college administrators.

F. CONFIDENTIALITY

1. The college will seek to protect the privacy of the complainant to the fullest extent possible, consistent with the legal obligation to investigate, take appropriate remedial and/or disciplinary action, and comply with the federal and state law, as well as college policies and procedures. Although the college will attempt to honor complainants' requests for confidentiality, it cannot guarantee complete confidentiality. Determinations regarding how to handle requests for confidentiality will be made by the Title IX coordinator.
2. The Title IX coordinator will inform and attempt to obtain consent from the complainant before commencing an investigation of alleged sexual harassment. If a complainant asks that their name not be revealed to the respondent or that the college not investigate the allegation, the Title IX coordinator will inform the complainant that maintaining confidentiality may limit the college's ability to fully respond to the allegations and that retaliation by the respondent and/or others is prohibited. If the complainant still insists that their name not be disclosed or that the college not investigate, the Title IX coordinator will determine whether the college can honor the request and at the same time maintain a safe and nondiscriminatory environment for all members of the college community, including the complainant. Factors to be weighed during this determination may include, but are not limited to:
   1. The seriousness of the alleged sexual harassment.
   2. The age of the complainant.
   3. Whether the sexual harassment was perpetrated with a weapon.
   4. Whether the respondent  has a history of committing acts of sexual harassment or violence or has been the subject of other sexual harassment or violence complaints or findings.
   5. Whether the respondent  threatened to commit additional acts of sexual harassment or violence against the complainant or others.
   6. Whether relevant evidence about the alleged incident can be obtained through other means (e.g., security cameras, other witnesses, physical evidence).
3. If the college is unable to honor a complainant’s request for confidentiality, the Title IX coordinator will notify the complainant of the decision and ensure that complainant’s identity is disclosed only to the extent reasonably necessary to effectively conduct and complete the investigation in compliance with this grievance procedure.
4. The college decides not to conduct an investigation or take disciplinary action because of a request for confidentiality, the Title IX coordinator will evaluate whether other measures are available to address the circumstances giving rise to the complaint and prevent their recurrence, and implement such measures if reasonably feasible.

G. COMPLAINT RESOLUTION

The Title IX resolution processes are initiated when the Title IX coordinator’s office receives a written complaint alleging that a respondent (s) sexually harassed a complainant and requesting that the college initiate an investigation (a formal complaint). A formal complaint must be either submitted by the complainant or signed by the Title IX coordinator on behalf of the complainant. Formal complaints submitted to the Title IX coordinator may be resolved through either informal or formal resolution processes. The college will not proceed with either resolution process without a formal complaint.

For purposes of this procedure, the complainant must be participating in or attempting to participate in a college education program or activity at the time the formal complaint is filed.

1. Informal Resolution:
   Under appropriate circumstances and if the impacted and responding parties agree, they may voluntarily pursue informal resolution during the investigation of a concern. Informal resolution is not appropriate when the allegations involve a mandatory reporting situation, an immediate threat to the health, safety or welfare of a member of the college community, or in cases where an employee is alleged to have sexually harassed a student.
   
   If an informal resolution is appropriate, the impacted party and the responding party may explore remedies or resolution through:
   
   
   1. Guided conversations or communications conducted by the Title IX coordinator/human resource office representative or a mutually agreed upon third party;
   2. Structured resolution process conducted by a trained mediator; or
   3. Voluntarily agreed on alterations to either or both of the parties’ work or class schedules or student housing arrangements.
      If the parties agree to an informal resolution process, the college will commence the process within 90 days after the parties agree to this option and conclude within 90 days of beginning that process, subject to reasonably delays and extensions for good cause shown. The informal process is voluntary. Either the impacted or responding party may withdraw from the informal resolution process at any time, at which point the formal investigation process will resume.
      
      If the impacted and responding party voluntarily resolve a report, the college will record the terms of the resolution in a written agreement signed by both parties and provide written notice to both parties that the report has been closed.
      
      
2. Formal Resolution
   Formal resolution means that the complainant’s allegations of sexual harassment will be subjected to a formal investigation by an impartial and unbiased investigator. The investigator will issue a report of the investigation findings. Upon completion of the investigation, the investigator will submit the final investigation report to the appropriate disciplinary authority to determine whether disciplinary proceedings are warranted.

H. EMERGENCY REMOVAL

If a student respondent  poses an immediate threat to the health and safety of the College Community or an immediate threat of significant disruption to college operations, the college’s student conduct officer may summarily suspend a respondent  pursuant to 1400.115 student discipline procedure pending final resolution of the allegations. Nothing in this grievance procedure prohibits the college from placing non‑student employees on administrative leave pending final resolution of the allegations.

I. INVESTIGATION NOTICES

Upon receiving a formal complaint and determining that allegations comport with Title IX claims, the college will provide the parties with the following notices containing the following information:

1. Notice of formal and informal resolution processes. A description of the college’s grievance resolution procedures, including the informal resolution procedure.
2. The investigator will serve the respondent  and the complainant with a notice of investigation in advance of the initial interview with the respondent  to allow the respondent  sufficient time to prepare a response to the allegations and to inform the complainant that the college has commenced an investigation. The investigation notice will:
   1. Include the identities of the parties (if known), a description of the conduct alleged constituting Title IX sexual harassment, and the time and location of the incident (if known).
   2. Confirm that the respondent  is presumed not responsible for the alleged conduct and that the college will not make a final determination of responsibility until after the grievance and disciplinary processes have been completed.
   3. Inform parties that they are both entitled to have an advisor of their own choosing, who may be an attorney.
   4. Inform parties they have a right to review and inspect evidence.
   5. Inform parties about student conduct code provisions and employment policies that prohibit students and employees from knowingly submitting false information during the grievance and disciplinary processes.
3. Amended investigation notice. If during the course of the investigation, the college decides to investigate Title IX sexual harassment allegations about the complainant or respondent  that are not included in the investigation notice, the college will issue an amended notice of investigation to both parties that includes this additional information.
4. Interview and meeting notices. Before any interviewing or meeting with a party about Title IX allegations, the college shall provide the party with a written notice identifying the date, time, location, participants, and purpose of the interview or meeting with sufficient time for the party to prepare for the interview or meeting.

J. INVESTIGATION PROCESS - DISMISSAL

1. Mandatory dismissal. The Title IX coordinator will dismiss the Title IX allegations, if during the course of a formal investigation under the sexual harassment/Title IX procedure process, the investigator determines that the alleged misconduct in the formal complaint:
   1. Does not meet the definition of sexual harassment under Title IX, even if proved; or
   2. Did not occur in the context of a College Education Program or Activity; or
   3. Occurred outside the United States.
2. Discretionary dismissal. The college may dismiss a Title IX claim in whole or in part, if:
   1. The complainant notifies the Title IX coordinator in writing that they would like to withdraw the formal complaint in whole or in part;
   2. Respondent  is no longer enrolled with or employed by the college; or
   3. Specific circumstances prevent the college from gathering evidence sufficient to complete the investigation of the Title IX allegations in whole or in part.
3. The Title IX coordinator will provide both parties written notice if Title IX allegations are dismissed with an explanation for the dismissal.
4. Mandatory or discretionary dismissal of a Title IX claim does not preclude the college from investigating and pursuing discipline based on allegations that a respondent  violated other federal or state laws and regulations, college conduct policies, and/or other codes and contractual provisions governing student and employee conduct.

K. INVESTIGATION PROCESS – CONSOLIDATION OF FORMAL COMPLAINTS

When multiple sexual harassment allegations by or against different parties arise out of the same facts or circumstances, the college may consolidate the investigation of formal complaints, provided consolidation can be accomplished in compliance with confidentiality protections imposed by the Family Educational Records and Privacy Act (FERPA). This includes instances in which complainant and respondent  have lodged formal complaints against one another or when allegations of sexual assault are lodged by a single complainant against multiple respondent s, or when multiple complainants lodge sexual assault complaints against single or multiple respondent s.

L. INVESTIGATION PROCESS – REQUIRED PROCEDURES

During the investigation, the investigator:

1. Will provide the parties with equal opportunity to present relevant statements, and other evidence in the form of fact or expert witnesses and inculpatory or exculpatory evidence.
2. Will not restrict the ability of either party to discuss the allegations under investigation or gather and present relevant evidence, except when a no contact order has been imposed based on an individualized and fact specific determination that a party poses a threat to the health, safety, or welfare of another party and/or witnesses or when contact with a party and/or witness is prohibited by court order. A college-imposed no contact shall be no broader than is necessary to protect the threatened party or witness and must provide the impacted party or their advisor with alternative means of gathering and presenting relevant evidence from the protected witness and/or party.¹
3. Will allow each party to be accompanied by an advisor of their choosing, who may be an attorney, to any grievance related meeting or interview. Advisors’ roles during the investigation meetings or interviews will be limited to providing support and advice to the party. Advisors will not represent or otherwise advocate on behalf of the parties during the investigation process. An attorney representing a party must enter a notice of appearance with the Title IX coordinator and the Investigator at least five days before the initial interview or meeting they plan to attend, so that the college can secure its own legal representation, if necessary.
4. The investigator will provide both parties and their respective advisors with an equal opportunity to review the draft investigation report and to inspect and review any evidence obtained during the investigation that is directly related to the allegations raised in the formal complaint, including inculpatory or exculpatory evidence, regardless of its source, as well as evidence upon which the investigator does not intend to rely in the final investigation report. After disclosure, each party will receive 10 days in which to submit a written response, which the investigator will consider prior to completion of the investigation report. If a party fails to submit a written response within 10 days, the party will be deemed to have waived their right to submit comments and the investigator will finalize the report without this information.
5. The investigator will forward the final report to the Title IX coordinator, who will distribute the report and evidence to the parties, as well as the disciplinary authority responsible for determining whether pursuing disciplinary action is warranted.

¹ The Rule does not provide any exceptions on prohibition against imposing a gag order. The Rule does recognize the use of summary suspension proceedings to address situations where a respondent poses a threat to the health, welfare, and safety of members of the campus community.

M. AMNESTY

The college considers the reporting and adjudication of sexual harassment cases on either campus to be of paramount importance. The college does not condone underage drinking or use of illegal drugs. However, the college will extend amnesty to complainants, third-party reporters, witnesses, and those assisting a potential victim of non-consensual sexual contact or non-consensual sexual penetration from punitive sanctioning for illegal use of drugs and/or alcohol when evidence of such use is discovered in the course of a sexual harassment investigation or while individuals are assisting a potential victim. Similarly, the college, at its discretion, may provide amnesty for other minor conduct code violations that are discovered in the course of sexual harassment report or investigation.

For the purposes of this subsection, "employee" has the same meaning as defined in RCW 49.44.210.

N. PUBLIC RECORDS REQUESTS

Any responses to public records requests will be provided in accordance with RCW 42.56.660 and 42.56.675.
