Note Regarding Student Participation in Public Awareness Events

Public awareness events such as “Take Back the Night,” the Clothesline Project, candlelight vigils, protests, “survivor speak outs” or other forums in which students disclose incidents are not considered notice to the College of sex-based discrimination, harassment or misconduct for purposes of triggering an obligation to investigate any particular incident(s).Such events may, however, inform the need for campus-wide education and prevention efforts, and the College will provide information about students’ rights at these events.
