Upon receipt of a complaint or report of a violation of this policy, the University will provide reasonable and appropriate supportive measures. Supportive measures are individualized services offered as appropriate, as reasonably available, and without fee or charge to the Complainant or the Respondent, and as appropriate, other witnesses and impacted individuals, before or after the filing of a complaint or where no complaint has been filed. Such measures are designed to restore or preserve equal access to the University’s program or activity without unreasonably burdening the other Party, including measures designed to protect the safety of all Parties or the University’s educational environment, or deter sexual harassment.

Supportive measures may include:

• Access to counseling services and assistance in arranging an initial appointment;
• Extensions of deadlines or other course-related adjustments;
• Rescheduling of exams and assignments;
• Change in class schedule, including the ability to transfer course sections or withdraw from a course;
• Change in work schedule or job assignment;
• Campus escort services;
• Leaves of absences;
• Increased security and monitoring of certain areas of  the campus;
• Imposition of a mutual on-campus "no contact order," an administrative remedy designed to curtail contact and communications between two or more individuals; and/or
• Any other remedy that can be used to achieve the goals of this policy.

Supportive measures are meant to be short-term in nature and will be re-evaluated on a periodic basis. To the extent that there is a continuing need for supportive measures after the conclusion of the resolution process, the Title IX Coordinator will work with appropriate school resources to provide continued assistance in the process.
