BU Title IX Resources

Copied from a slide presented during a course presented by SumTotal. I'm putting this information here because I'm not sure if it's available elsewhere.

If a student brings a sexual misconduct concern to you, do not try to manage the situation yourself.

Central reporting to the designated, trained official(s):

• Allows all reports to be handled consistently by staff in accordance with BU Policy and Procedures; and
• Allows the complainant to receive all available resources, including counseling or medical attention; and
• Allows complainants streamlined access to law enforcement and University discipline processes if they choose to pursue University or criminal action.

As a RESPONSIBLE EMPLOYEE, you must contact your Deputy Title IX Coordinator and/or the University-Wide Title IX Coordinator.

Contact information for the Coordinator and Deputy Coordinators for each school and college is located on the Equal Opportunity Office website (URL: https://www.bu.edu/eoo/sexual-misconduct-title-ix/title-ix-team/ )

Anyone who has been the target of sexual misconduct is encouraged to seek help and support.

Students who are uncertain of their options or who simply need help should call the Sexual Assault Response and Prevention Center (SARP). They are a confidential resource. Phone: (617) 353-7277; Web: www.bu.edu/shs/sarp.

Students, faculty, and staff can contact their Deputy Title IX Coordinators at their school/college, or the University-wide Title IX Coordinator in the Equal Opportunity Office. They can provide resources and information on next steps for making a report with BU. Phone: (617) 358-1796; Web: www.bu.edu/eoo.

Faculty and staff may contact the Faculty and Staff Assistance Office (FSAO) for assistance. They are a confidential resource. Phone: (617) 353-5381; Web: www.bu.edu/fsao.
