Any Kalamazoo College student, faculty, or staff member.
Can I use this form if I am studying abroad or on research-based travel?

Students, faculty, and staff may also contact the Title IX Coordinator directly to report, to request supportive measures, or to be connected to other support resources. College resources remain available to you while abroad or traveling. Supportive measures are available to students, faculty, and staff even if the respondent is not associated with the College.

Information on this form is sent to the Title IX Coordinator for review and follow-up. The Associate Vice President for Human Resources also receives a copy of the form.

What if I am a student who violated the alcohol policy?
The College strongly encourages students to report incidents violating the Policy Against Harassment. Therefore, students who act responsibly by reporting to the appropriate authorities information about conduct violating these policies typically will not face College disciplinary action for their own drug or alcohol possession or consumption in connection with the reported incident.
What if someone retaliates against me for reporting?
The College does not tolerate any form of retaliation for reporting in good faith or for participating in an investigation or hearing. This form may be used to report retaliation.
