Title IX Policy

Contact:

Title IX of the Education Amendment of 1972

“No person in the United States shall, on the basis of sex, be excluded from participation in, be denied the benefits of, or be subjected to discrimination under any program or activity receiving Federal financial assistance.”

Both Title IX and College Policy prohibit discrimination in services or benefits offered by the College based upon gender.

Sexual harassment is a form of gender discrimination and therefore prohibited under Title IX. Sexual harassment is defined as unwelcome sexual advances, requests for sexual favors, or other verbal or physical conduct of a sexual nature.

The following are examples of types of conduct that may constitute sexual harassment:

• Inappropriate touching, patting, or pinching.
• Physical assault or coerced sexual activity.
• Demands or subtle pressure for sexual favors.
• Obscene phone calls, texts, email, or gestures.

Any person (student, faculty, staff, or guest) who believes that discriminatory practices have been engaged in based upon gender may discuss these concerns and file informal or formal complaints of possible violations of Title IX with the Title IX Coordinator.

It is the policy of this college to provide equal employment and educational opportunity on the basis of merit without discrimination because of age, race, ethnicity, color, sex, religion, national origin, sexual orientation, veterans’ status, or disability.

What does this have to do with me?

Most SSC employees are required to report incidents of sexual and gender-based harassment, sexual violence, domestic violence, dating violence and stalking to the Title IX Coordinator.  The Department of Education refers to these individuals as Responsible Employees.

Why am I a Responsible Employee?

Responsible Employees are those with supervisory responsibilities, or the authority to address or remediate misconduct, or those whom an individual might reasonably believe have such supervisory responsibility or authority.

To whom does a Responsible Employee report an incident?

Title IX Coordinator

What is your actual reporting responsibility?

To promptly place incidents of sexual and gender based harassment, sexual violence, dating and domestic violence, stalking and related retaliation into the hands of Title IX Coordinator.

As a Responsible Employee you have two main duties:

1. To inform a survivor of their rights and the services available through SSC.

2. Report the incident to the Title IX Coordinator.

What is a Responsible Employee’s duty to inform?

Before a person reveals information that they may wish to keep confidential a Responsible Employee should make every effort to ensure that the survivor understands:

• • • the Responsible Employee’s obligation to report to the Title IX Coordinator (names and relevant facts such as the date, time, and location)
    • the option to request that SSC maintain confidentiality and not start an investigation, which the college will consider; and
    • inform the survivor that they entitled to support services
    • inform the survivor that SSC prohibits retaliation

What if a survivor does request confidentiality or asks that SSC does not investigate?

1. If the survivor wants to tell the Responsible Employee what happened, but also maintain confidentiality or ask that no investigation occur, the Responsible Employee should tell the survivor that SSC will consider the request, but cannot guarantee that we will be able to honor it.

2. In reporting the details of the incident to the Title IX Coordinator, the Responsible Employee must inform the coordinator of the survivor’s request for confidentiality and/or no investigation.

How does SSC evaluate a survivor’s request for confidentiality or no investigation?

In consultation with Campus Police and other personnel necessary personnel, the Title IX Coordinator will evaluate a request for confidentiality or no investigation by considering factors, such as whether:

• there have been other similar complaints about the same accused;
• the accused has a history of arrests or records indicating a history of violence;
• the accused threatened any further violence against the survivor or others; • the misconduct was committed by multiple alleged perpetrators;
• the act was perpetrated with a weapon;
• the survivor is a minor; • there appears to be a pattern of perpetration (e.g., via illicit use of drugs or alcohol) at a given location or by a particular group

What must be included in the Responsible Employee’s report?

An Responsible Employee must report all known details about the alleged incident, including:

• the Responsible Employee’s name, position and contact information
• the date, time and location of incident (if known)
• the date the incident was reported to the Responsible Employee
• the name and contact information of the survivor or other party who reported the incident (if known)
• the name and contact information of the accused (if known) a description of the incident (as much factual detail as possible;
• names of witnesses (if available)
• whether complainant has requested confidentiality
• whether other offices are involved (has the survivor reported the incident to anyone else on campus, to the police, or to an outside agency?)

How can a Responsible Employee make sure the report is confidential?

• A Responsible Employee is obligated to inform the Title IX Coordinator ONLY.
• The information shared by the survivor is confidential and should not be disclosed to anyone else on campus.
• A Responsible Employee should not share information with law enforcement without the survivor’s consent. The Title IX Coordinator will make the determination as to whether or not Campus Police needs to be made aware of the incident.

What does SSC do with the report?

• The Title IX Coordinator will determine whether further action is necessary.
• If the Title IX Coordinator determines that additional action is necessary, the survivor will be informed and protected from any retaliation.
• The Title IX Coordinator, or a designee, will contact the survivor to answer any questions, discuss support options and address any safety concerns.
• The Title IX Coordinator will ensure that appropriate interim measures are implemented.

Please note that a survivor’s personal information will be shared only as necessary, and consistently with state and federal law:

• with investigators, witnesses, and the accused
• with other CCS officials to provide interim measures
• when required to be disclosed by law

Sex Discrimination

Sex Discrimination is an umbrella term encompassing multiple types of actions involving the unfavorable treatment of an individual or group of identifiable individuals based on sex.

• Sexual Harassment
• Sexual Misconduct
• Domestic Violence
• Dating Violence
• Stalking

Sexual Harassment

Sexual harassment is unwelcomed sexual advances, requests for sexual favors and other verbal or physical contact or communication of a sexual nature when:

1. Submission to such conduct or communication is made either explicitly or implicitly a term or condition of educational benefits, employment, academic evaluations or other academic opportunities,
2. Submission to or rejection of such conduct or communication by an individual is used as the basis for an employment decision or academic decision affecting such individual, or
3. Such conduct is sufficiently severe, pervasive, or persistent and objectively offensive that has the effect of creating an intimidation, hostile or offensive environment which negatively affects an individual’s academic or employment environment.

Sexual harassment does not include verbal expressions or written materials that is relevant and appropriately related to course subject matter or curriculum, and this policy shall not abridge academic freedom or the college’s educational mission.

Two forms of Sexual Harassment:

• Quid Pro Quo- Exchange of sexual favor for benefit in workplace or educational environment.
• Hostile Environment
• Subjective AND Objective

• • Sufficiently Severe, Pervasive, OR Persistent

• • • • Severe- How bad is it?
      • Pervasive- How wide spread is it?
      • Persistent- How frequent is it?

• Student in a biology class sends frequent e-mails to the class listserv that contain sexist jokes
• Student hangs nude male photos in her room that are visible to all of her roommates

Examples

• Unwelcomed sexual flirtation, advances or propositions of sexual activities.
• Asking about someone else’s personal, social or sexual life or about their sexual fantasies, preferences or history.
• Discussing one’s own personal sexual fantasies, preferences or history.
• Repeatedly asking for a date from a person who is not interested.
• Whistles, catcalls or insulting sounds.
• Sexually suggestive jokes or innuendoes, or turning discussions into sexual topics.
• Sexually offensive or degrading language used to describe an individual or remarks of a sexual nature to describe a person’s body or clothing.
• Calling a person a “hunk,” “doll,” “babe,” “sugar,” “honey” or similar descriptive terms.
• Displaying sexually demeaning or offensive objects and pictures.
• Making sexual gestures with hands or body movements.
• Rating a person’s sexuality.
• Unwelcomed touching of a person’s body, including massaging a person.

Offensive physical contact- Possible problem areas include:

• Massaging a person's neck or shoulders
• Touching a person's clothing, hair, or body hugging, kissing, patting, or stroking a person's body
• Touching or rubbing oneself in a sexual manner around or in the view of another person
• Brushing up against another person
• Tearing, pulling, or yanking a person's clothing
• Sexual assault or other sexual contact

Sexual Misconduct

Sexual misconduct is engaging in non-consensual contact of a sexual nature. Sexual misconduct may vary in its severity and consists of a range of behavior or attempted behavior including, but not limited to, the following examples of prohibited conduct:

• Unwelcome sexual touching: Touching an unwilling or non-consensual person’s intimate parts (such as genitalia, groin, breast, buttocks, mouth or clothing covering same); touching an unwilling person with one’s own intimate parts; or forcing an unwilling person to touch another’s intimate parts.
• Exposure: Engaging in indecent exposure, sexual acts in a public place, voyeurism or non-consensual sharing of sexually explicit images.
• Non-consensual sexual assault: Penetrating any bodily opening of an unwilling or non-consensual person with any object or body part.
• Forced sexual assault: Penetrating any bodily opening of an unwilling or non-consensual person with any object or body part that is committed either by force, threat, intimidation, or through exploitation of another’s mental or physical condition (such as lack of consciousness, incapacitation due to ingestion of drugs or alcohol, age or mental disability) of which the respondent was aware or should have been aware.

Effective Consent is:

• informed;
• freely and actively given;
• mutually understandable words or actions; and
• willingness to participate in mutually agreed upon sexual activity.

Further:

• Initiators of sexual activity are responsible for obtaining effective consent.
• Silence or passivity is not effective consent.
• The use of intimidation, coercion, threats, force or violence negates any consent obtained.
• Consent is not considered effective if obtained from an individual who is incapable of giving consent due to the following:

• • mental, developmental, or physical disability; or
  • they are under the legal age to give consent; or
  • they are incapacitated by alcohol, beer or under the influence of drugs.

Individuals who commit acts of sexual misconduct assume responsibility for their behavior and must understand that the use of alcohol or other drugs does not reduce accountability for their actions.

Examples of sexual misconduct violations:

• Ignoring an individual’s protest and engaging in sexual activity.
• Convincing somebody to have sex, which likely constitutes intimidation or coercion. If someone is coerced, the “yes” is not effective consent.
• Drinking and/or drug use may render an individual incapable of giving consent for sexual activity. For example, someone who is incapacitated may agree to have sex at the time, but have no memory of the consent. This person may have been functioning in a “blackout” and could not give effective consent.
• Holding a person down or preventing a person from leaving the room and forcing him or her to engage in sexual activity against their will.

Domestic Violence

Domestic violence is a crime of violence committed by a:

• • Current or former spouse or intimate partner of the victim
  • Person with whom the victim shares a child in common
  • Person who is cohabitating with or has cohabitated with the victim as a spouse or intimate partner
  • Person similarly situated to a spouse of the victim.

Domestic violence is a pattern of abusive behavior that is used by one partner to gain or maintain power and control over another intimate partner. It can be physical, sexual, emotional, economic, or psychological actions or threat of actions that influence another person.

Definition consistent with Violence Against Women Act Volume 79 CFR.

Retaliation

The college will not tolerate retaliation against a person who, in good faith, brings a complaint forward.  Any attempt to penalize or retaliate against a person for filing a complaint or participating in the investigation of a complaint of sexual harassment will be treated as an equally serious form of harassment.

Rape is an act of sexual intercourse accomplished with a male or female who is the spouse of the perpetrator if force or violence is used or threatened, accompanied by apparent power of execution to the victim or to another person.

The term “consent” means the affirmative, unambiguous and voluntary agreement to engage in a specific sexual activity during a sexual encounter which can be revoked at any time.  Consent cannot be:

Given by an individual who:

• is asleep or is mentally or physically incapacitated either through the effect of drugs or alcohol or for any other reason, or
• is under duress, threat, coercion or force; or

• Inferred under circumstances in which consent is not clear including, but not limited to:

• the absence of an individual saying “no” or “stop”, or
• the existence of a prior or current relationship or sexual activity.

• 21 Okla. Stat. § 113 (effective June 6, 2016).

The following is to be used for informational, educational, and preventative purposes.

A person CANNOT give consent:

(Regardless of what he or she might verbalize):

• The person is incapacitated or unconscious as a result of alcohol and/or drugs
• The person is mentally disabled to the extent that the person cannot understand the nature or the consequences of the sexual act
• The person is not of age to give consent
• Once a person says no. It does not matter if or what kind of sexual behavior has happened previously in the current event, earlier that day, or daily for the previous six months. It does not matter if it is a current long-term relationship, a broken relationship, or marriage. If one partner says, NO, and the other forces penetration it is rape.

What does consent mean in intimate relationships?

Consent is when one person agrees to or gives permission to another person to do something. Consent means agreeing to an action based on your knowledge of what that action involves, its likely consequences and having the option of saying no. 

The absence of no does not mean yes. Consent is a very important part of a sexual relationship. Each person is responsible for their own comfort and safety. Consent is an important part of healthy sexuality and both people should be involved in the decision to participate in sexual activity.

Consent Is

• A voluntary, sober, imaginative, enthusiastic, creative, wanted, informed, mutual, honest, and verbal agreement.
• An active agreement: Consent cannot be coerced.
• A process, which must be asked for every step of the way; if you want to move to the next level of sexual intimacy, just ask.
• Never implied and cannot be assumed, even in the context of a relationship. Just because you are in a relationship does not mean that you have permission to have sex with your partner.

Kissing Doesn't Always Need to Lead to Sex

Everyone has the right to say no and everyone has the right to change their mind at any time regardless of their past experiences with other people or the person they are with.

The Perks of Consent

• Shows that you have respect for both yourself and your partner.
• Enhances communication, respect, and honesty.
• Having the ability to know and be able to communicate the type of sexual relationship you want.
• The opportunity to acknowledge that you and your partner have sexual needs and desires.
• The opportunity to identify your personal beliefs and values and respecting your partners personal beliefs and values.
• Building confidence and self-esteem.
• Challenging stereotypes that rape is a women's issue.
• Challenging sexism and traditional views on gender and sexuality.
• Gaining positive views on sex and sexuality are empowering.
• Eliminates the entitlement that one partner might feel over another. Neither your body nor your sexuality belong to anyone else.

What if the person you're with is unable to give consent?

Drugs and alcohol can affect people’s ability to make decisions, including whether or not they want to be sexual with someone else. This means that if someone is really out of it, they cannot give consent.

Being with them in a sexual way when they don't know what is going on is the same as rape.

If you see a person who is unable and is being intimate with someone, you should pull them aside and try your best to make sure that person is safe and knows what he or she is doing. If it’s the opposite situation, and your friend is trying to engage in a sexual encounter with someone who is out if it, you should try to pull them aside and stop them from continuing their behavior

Responsibility with Consent

Giving consent is not the sole responsibility of one person. An initiator of sexual activity is also responsible for obtaining effective consent before engaging in sexual behavior.

How do you know if the person you are with has given their consent?

The only way to know for sure if a person has given consent is if they tell you. Its not always easy to let people know that you are not happy about something. Sometimes the person you're with might look like they are happy doing something, but inside they are not. They might not know what to say or how to tell you that they are uncomfortable. The best way to determine if someone is uncomfortable or unwilling in any situation, especially a sexual one, is to simply ask. Here are some examples of the questions you might ask:

• Is there anything you don't want to do?
• Are you comfortable?
• Do you want to stop?
• Do you want to go further?

However, if the person incapacitated (as described above) even if consent is verbalized, it is not consent!

Recognizing Non-Verbal Communication

There are many ways of communicating. The look on a person’s face or their body language are also a way of communicating. Often nonverbal communication has more meaning than the words that come out of their mouth.

Some examples of nonverbal communication that signal a person is uncomfortable with the situation are:

• Not responding to your touch
• Pushing you away
• Holding their arms tightly around their bodies
• Turning away from you or hiding their face
• Stiffening muscles

Asking questions and being aware of body language helps you to determine if the person is consenting and feeling comfortable, or not consenting and feeling uncomfortable. If you get a negative or non-committal answer to any of the questions above, or if the person's body language resembles any of the above examples, you should stop what you are doing and talk to them about it.

Slowing Things Down      

Take your time. Making sure you are both comfortable and want the same thing, talk about how far you want to go. This will make the time you spend together more satisfying and enjoyable for you both. Things can move very quickly. Below are ways to say "slow down" if you feel that things are moving too quickly.

• I don’t want to go any further than kissing, hugging, touching.
• Let’s just stay like this for a while.
• Let’s slow down.

Stopping

You always have the right to say no. You always have the right to change your mind at any time regardless of your past experience with the person or others. Below are some things you can say or do if you want so stop:

• Say No
• Say I want to stop
• Say I need to go to the bathroom/toilet
• In a situation where the other person isn't listening to you and you feel unsafe, say you are going feeling sick and might vomit.
