The University of Lynchburg is committed to providing an educational and work environment in which no one is excluded from participation in, denied the benefits of, or subject to discrimination in any educational program or activity on the basis of sex or gender identity.
Sex discrimination is prohibited at the University of Lynchburg. See the full Interpersonal Misconduct Policy. There are multiple ways to report incidents of interpersonal misconduct. The University of Lynchburg encourages all individuals to report interpersonal misconduct to the Title IX coordinator and, when such conduct might constitute a crime, to report such conduct to:.
Responsible employees are campus security authorities who are responsible for campus safety. These persons have authority to receive crime information. Included are such positions as community advisors, coaches, athletic directors, student housing, faculty and staff advisors to student groups, and campus police and security. The duty of the campus security authority is to listen when approached with crime information and to document and report it to the Title IX coordinator.
Although Spiritual Life Center counselors and professional counselors have significant responsibilities, they are not campus security authorities.
Both provide confidential services and are exempted from the campus security authority role. However, if functioning in a role other than counselor, these responsible employees are obliged to report a crime under certain situations. Non-emergency incidents may be reported to the Title IX coordinator by completing the form available here or by contacting the Title IX coordinator directly.
