2. Commitment to Prohibit Sexual Misconduct
MACC is committed to providing an environment for its students, faculty, staff, and visitors free from discrimination on the basis of sex (including pregnancy and marital status), gender identity, and sexual orientation. MACC maintains a strict policy prohibiting sexual misconduct in any form, to include sexual harassment, sexual discrimination, and sexual violence (rape, sexual assault and other sexual offenses, dating violence, domestic violence, and stalking). This policy applies to students and employees as well as third parties.
Response options are available through MACC policies and/or local, state, and federal law enforcement agencies for any persons have been sexually harassed, have experienced sexual discrimination, or have been a victim of sexual assault or other sexual misconduct which impacts their educational experience or employment environment.
Any person found to be in violation of this Sexual Misconduct Policy will be subject to action by MACC, up to and including dismissal. A complainant may wish to report to law enforcement agencies. If a report to law enforcement agencies is desired, the Title IX Coordinator, or their designee, would be able to assist.
MACC complies with all laws and regulations governing how colleges and universities handle sexual offenses. This policy outlines institutional procedures to meet the requirements of Title IX, the Violence against Women Reauthorization Act of 2013, the Campus Sexual Violence Act (CampuSaVE Act), and the Clery Act.
