Sexual Misconduct

Central Wyoming College prohibits sexual misconduct in any form, including but not limited to: sexual discrimination, sexual assault/sexual violence, sexual harassment, or any form of sexual misconduct. Individuals participating in a college educational program or activity should be able to live, study, and work in an environment free from all forms of sexual misconduct.

The college is committed to fostering a campus environment that promotes and expedites prompt reporting of sexual misconduct and complies with due process. The college’s procedures are designed to protect the rights and confidentiality of both the person(s) making a complaint and the person(s) accused of sexual misconduct. The college also adheres to all federal, state, and local requirements for intervention, crime reporting, and privacy provisions related to sexual misconduct. Therefore, Central Wyoming College’s Title IX Coordinator/s will evaluate every report of sexual misconduct. Additionally, sexual misconduct will be investigated by trained investigators. The college honors any order of protection, no-contact order, restraining order, or lawful order of a court of competent jurisdiction. The link to the procedure document, process document, and additional resources can be found at https://www.cwc.edu/titleix/.

This sexual harassment procedure guides the college’s response to reports of sexual harassment. There are other legal forums for reporting sexual harassment and seeking other legal remedies. Nothing in the procedure prevents a student, employee, or any other person from also pursuing these other options at their discretion.
