title receive annual notification and training and are asked to forward the training to anyone within their department who they believe meets the Clery definition of a Campus Security Authority by job function. If you believe that you may qualify as a Campus Security Authority and have not received notification or training, please contact the Title The Role of a Campus Security Authority. Campus Security Authorities should not investigate crimes or attempt to determine whether in fact a crime occurred. Rather, a Campus Security Authority’s obligation is to simply report the information that s/he has as soon as possible. Sumner College is required to disclose statistics for the following offenses that occur on campus, or in non-campus buildings or property owned or controlled by the college, and public property within or immediately adjacent to campus. • Murder • Manslaughter • Sexual Assault • Robbery • Aggravated Assault • Burglary • Vehicle Theft • Arson • Dating Violence • Domestic Violence • Stalking • Hate/Bias Crimes If in doubt that a crime is reportable, please err on the side of reporting the matter Accommodations and Protective Measures Available for Victims Upon receipt of a report of domestic violence, dating violence, sexual misconduct and/or stalking, Sumner College will provide written notification to students and employees about accommodations available to them, including academic, living, transportation and working situations. The written notification will include information regarding the accommodation options, available assistance in requesting accommodations, and how to request accommodations and protective measures (i.e., the notification will include the name and contact information for the individual or office that should be contacted to request the accommodations.) At the victim’s request, and to the extent of the victim’s cooperation and consent, the College will work cooperatively to assist the victim in obtaining accommodations. The College is obligated to comply with a victim’s reasonable request to make changes to academic, living, working or transportation situations regardless of whether the victim
chooses to report the crime to local law enforcement. Examples of options for a potential change to the academic situation may be to transfer to a different section of a class, withdraw and take a class at another time if there is no option for moving to a different section, etc. Possible changes to work situations may include changing working hours. Possible changes in transportation may include having the student or employee park in a different location, assisting the student or employee with a safety escort, etc. To request changes to academic, living, transportation and/or working situations or protective measures, a victim should contact the Title IX Coordinator/Campus President. If the victim wishes to receive assistance in requesting these accommodations, she or he should contact the Title IX Coordinator/Campus President. Upon receipt of any order of protection, no-contact or restraining order issued by any criminal, civil or Tribal court Sumner College will abide by stipulations within the court order. Confidentiality Victims may request that directory information on file with the College be withheld by request to the Registrar’s Office. Regardless of whether a victim has opted-out of allowing the College to share “directory information,” personally identifiable information about the victim and other necessary parties will be treated as confidential and only shared with persons who have a specific need-to-know, i.e., those who are investigating/ adjudicating the report or those involved in providing support services to the victim, including accommodations and protective measures. By only sharing personally identifiable information with individuals on a need-to-know basis, the institution will maintain as confidential, any accommodations or protective measures provided to the victim to the extent that maintaining such confidentiality would not impair the ability of the institution to provide the accommodations or protective measures. The College does not publish the name of crime victims or other identifiable information regarding victims in the Daily Crime Log or in the annual crime statistics that are disclosed in compliance with the Jeanne Clery Disclosure of Campus Security Policy and Campus Crime Statistics Act. Furthermore, when a Timely Warning Notice is issued, including on the basis of a report of domestic violence, dating violence, sexual assault or stalking, the name of the victim and other personally identifiable information about the victim will be withheld. The College reserves the right to notify parents/guardians of dependent students regarding any health or safety risk, or a change in student status. The Crime Log can be viewed by request to a school administrator
