Annual Security Report 2016 The federal Jeanne Clery Disclosure of Campus Security Policy and Campus Crime Statistics Act (Clery Act) requires colleges and universities, both public and private, participating in federal student aid programs to disclose campus safety information, and imposes certain basic requirements for handling incidents of sexual violence and emergency situations. Disclosures about crime statistics and summaries of security policies are made once a year in an Annual Security Report. Welcome to Arizona State University!

of the ASU Knowledge Enterprise (Thunderbird/ASU). A copy of The 2016 Annual Security and Fire Safety Report for Thunderbird/ASU may be obtained from the Thunderbird Safety and Security Office or from the Procedures Analyst at ASU Police, 325 E Apache BLVD, Tempe, AZ; (480) 9652858. 3 ARIZONA STATE UNIVERSITY POLICE DEPARTMENT The ASU Police Department is vested with the authority and responsibility to enforce all applicable laws. ASU police officers have the authority and duty to conduct criminal investigations, arrest violators, and suppress campus crime. ASU Police are empowered by the State of Arizona to provide police and other quality safety services to the university system. ASU police officers are duly sworn peace officers under A.R.S. § 13-3871, are authorized to carry firearms, and have the same authority as municipal police officers to use police powers of arrest. The ASU Police Department has primary jurisdiction over ASU-owned and operated properties. ASU police officers are certified by the Arizona Peace Officer Standards and Training Board. In addition to attending a departmental pre-academy and a 20-week academy, each ASU police officer completes supervised and evaluated on-the-job field training based on a 15-week training program. Officers must also successfully complete a probationary period of one year. ASU Police provides law enforcement services 24 hours a day, 365 days a year. The ASU Police Department also employs unarmed police aides to assist with security around campus. Police aides are full and part-time department employees who serve as the “eyes and ears” of the ASU Police Department. They may take reports for minor incidents, provide basic emergency services, and assist police officers as needed. Police aides complete supervised and evaluated on-the-job field training based on a six-week training program. In the summer of 2015, ASU started a Special-Victims Unit within its Police Department. The detectives in that unit investigate cases involving sexual assault, domestic violence, dating violence, stalking, and crimes against children. The Special-Victims Unit assists in providing even better service to victims as well as training to the other officers at ASU and campus communities. Additionally, the Police Department added a Victim Advocate in early 2016. The Victim Advocate works closely with SVU detectives, helps victims understand their many options and obtain resources and services. The Victim Advocate can transport victims to Family Advocacy Centers for free exams, assist victims in obtaining orders of protection to include filling out paperwork and transporting them as needed, drive victims to court if requested, and advocate for victims as they work through the criminal justice system. The Victim Advocate also educates the victim about Crime Victim Rights and victim compensation. The university’s mission of education, research, and community service is supported by the law enforcement services and educational programs offered by the ASU Police Department. Through mutual aid agreements, ASU Police works closely with the surrounding law enforcement agencies including Tempe, Phoenix, Mesa, Glendale, Scottsdale, Gilbert, Maricopa County Sheriff, and Arizona Department of Public Safety. These agreements enable all agencies to assist each other when and where needed. Primary law enforcement at the ASU Colleges at Lake Havasu City is provided by the Lake Havasu City Police Department. Preparation of the Clery Report In 1990, the U.S. Congress enacted the Crime Awareness and Campus Security Act, which requires postsecondary institutions to disclose campus crime statistics and security information. In 1998, the act was renamed the Jeanne Clery Disclosure of Campus Security Policy and Campus Crime Statistics Act (“Clery Act”) in memory of a student who was slain in her dorm room in 1986 in Pennsylvania. The Violence Against Women Reauthorization Act of 2013 (VAWA) includes the Campus Sexual Violence Elimination Act which affords additional rights to campus victims of sexual assault, domestic violence, dating violence, and stalking. VAWA also amended the Clery Act, and provides additional reporting requirements. 4 These federal statutes require higher education institutions to give timely warnings of crimes which represent a threat to the safety of students or employees, and to make public their campus security policies. They require crime data to be collected, reported, and disseminated to the campus community as well as to the U.S. Department of Education. The purpose is to provide students and their families with accurate, complete, and timely information about safety on campus so they can make informed decisions. ASU Police prepares the text for the policies and practices section with input and information available from other university departments. ASU Police collects statistical information provided by reports from campus security authorities and local law enforcement agencies. Licensed counselors are exempt from reporting requirements. Campus counselors are encouraged to inform those they counsel to report crimes to ASU Police. REPORTING CRIMES AND INCIDENTS The success of any law enforcement agency is contingent on receiving timely and valuable information. ASU Police urges all victims and witnesses to report crimes and suspicious activity in a timely manner. We offer multiple options for reporting, to include anonymous reporting. Crimes in progress and serious crimes which have just occurred should be reported by calling 9-1-1 from any phone. Whenever possible, the actual victim or witness of the crime should call directly. First-hand information is always more accurate and complete. If you have knowledge of a crime or suspected crime, you may report it by telephone, in person, or electronically at asupolice@asu.edu or with the LiveSafe mobile application. The LiveSafe app can be downloaded from Google Play, iTunes, or the ASU Police Website. You may report a crime if someone merely gives you the information and leaves, but please include this fact when reporting. ASU Police officers or police aides will respond without delay to all calls for police service. Emergency calls shall take precedence; however, all calls will be answered as soon as possible. The ASU Police Communications Center is responsible for notifying other departments and appropriate university personnel, and for providing assistance as needed. [PSM 261-02] The ASU Police Communications Center is staffed 24 hours a day by trained public safety dispatchers. The dispatchers receive calls from the 9-1-1 and non-emergency lines and the LiveSafe mobile application. Calls are assigned to the appropriate police or emergency personnel to handle. When calling to report a crime or incident, please be ready to give information such as:  a brief description of the occurrence,  when and where the incident occurred,  weapons the suspect(s) carried,  where and when the suspect(s) was last seen,  description of the suspect(s) (including gender, race, age, height, weight, hair color/length, clothing, facial hair, tattoos/scars),  and any other relevant information. In addition to the importance of reporting, timely information assists responders in developing warnings for the university community. Cell phones do not automatically register caller and exact location information in the 9-1-1 system. When calling 9-1-1 from a cell phone, tell the dispatcher you are calling from a cell 5 phone and your location. 9-1-1 calls from cell phones may be directed to a city police department or Maricopa County Sheriff’s Office; 9-1-1 calls on the Downtown Phoenix campus go directly to the Phoenix Police Department. You may consider programming your phone with the ASU Police number for general, non-emergency use: (480) 965-3456. ASU Police Department Locations     Tempe campus - 325 E.

SERVICES TO HELP YOU STAY SAFE AND PREVENT CRIME Community Policing Community-based policing is a collaborative effort between a police department and community that identifies problems of crime and disorder and involves all elements of the community in the search for solutions to these problems. It is founded on close, mutually-beneficial ties between police and community members. The police department utilizes a neighborhood approach as a community policing strategy. ASU police officers and aides collaborate with residence hall and associated department staff, as well as community members to address public safety issues. 7 In addition to partnering with the community, collecting and analyzing reported crime data plays an important part in this process. The data is reviewed and then educational, enforcement, and deterrent strategies are employed in an effort to reduce the occurrence of crime in our community. The ASU Police Department believes that preventing crime is a shared responsibility. For every crime committed there must be a desire, an opportunity, and the ability to commit the crime. While you cannot control another’s desire or ability to commit a crime, you can control the opportunity by doing the following:  Always remain alert and aware of your surroundings.  Report any unusual or suspicious activity you witness.  Do not walk alone at night.  Never leave valuable items unattended.  Always secure valuable items with a proper lock.  Record the make, model and serial numbers of your valuables. Safety Escort Services Phoenix Metropolitan Area Campuses – Undergraduate Student Government provides a safety escort service on the Tempe campus. It is provided by volunteers and student workers and is available daily from 7:00 p.m. to 2:00 a.m. but requests must be made before 1:30 a.m. A safety escort will meet you and escort you to your on-campus destination. Call (480) 9651515 to arrange for an escort. If you desire an escort at another campus or outside that time frame at the Tempe Campus, you can contact ASU Police at (480) 965-3456 or via the LiveSafe App to ask for assistance 24 hours a day. ASU Colleges at Lake Havasu City – Safety escorts are provided by on-site security personnel between 5 p.m. and 7 a.m., Monday through Friday and 11 p.m. to 7 a.m. Saturday and Sunday. Contact (928) 716-0729 to ask for assistance. Emergency Call Boxes There are emergency call boxes located throughout each campus. They are easily identifiable by the blue light on the top of the pole with “Emergency” printed on it or by a bright yellow box mounted on a metal pole. To operate the call box, simply press the call button, and a police dispatcher will answer immediately and provide assistance. If the area remains unsafe, you may move to the next call box location and activate it until police arrive. Your location is identified with each activation. The emergency phones are not only located near campus buildings, but also in universityoperated parking lots and parking structures. The emergency phones are directly linked to ASU Police on the Tempe, West, and Polytechnic campuses. The emergency phones on the Downtown Phoenix campus have a red call button, are illuminated with a blue light, and will connect you directly to the Phoenix Police. The Lake Havasu City Police Department receives and responds to emergency call box activations at the ASU Colleges at Lake Havasu City. 8 LiveSafe Application Arizona State University community members gain more mobile reporting power for reporting crimes and emergencies with the free ASU LiveSafe™ mobile app available through your App Store. Smartphone users who download the app can report tips to the ASU Police Department, make emergency calls, and perform other functions that help enhance their personal safety and security. The app allows users to communicate anonymously with ASU Police in real-time via chat, pictures, audio, and video. During times of distress, a LiveSafe user can send a link with an accurate GPS location to alert the LiveSafe user’s personal emergency contacts. Friends and family also can virtually walk an app user home. The app’s SafeWalk feature uses GPS-tagged monitoring to track an app user’s progress on a Web-based map. The feature can be deactivated once the user has reached his or her destination safely. The LiveSafe app launch is an additional step that ASU is taking to improve the safety of the living, working and studying environment that the university community enjoys. While phone calls and written reports still will be accepted and acted upon by ASU Police, LiveSafe users can report tips in new ways and with more accurate location information. ASU Police Crime Prevention Unit Because it is better to prevent crimes than to react to them, ASU Police operates a full-time Crime Prevention Unit to plan, coordinate, and implement crime prevention presentations and services on the Tempe, West, Polytechnic, and Downtown Phoenix campuses. The Crime Prevention Unit also conducts building security assessments and inspects campus grounds to address areas of safety concern. The Crime Prevention Unit, in conjunction with other ASU Police staff, conducts educational and experiential programs throughout the year to inform students and employees of security policies, procedures, and practices. These programs are free and include topics such as personal safety, bicycle safety and theft prevention, preventing acquaintance sexual assault, drug and alcohol abuse, office security, residence hall security, and home security. If needed, presentations can be prepared or tailored to meet special requests. ASU Police encourages students, faculty, staff, and visitors to be responsible for their own safety by taking proactive steps to reduce the likelihood of victimization and crimes on campus. Crime prevention literature is available at the ASU Police Department lobby or by request from the Crime Prevention Unit. The following safety presentations are available to the university community. The number in parentheses, after each presentation name, is the number of times the presentation was provided to the community for the current reporting year. Presentations are not limited to these numbers, but are also provided as needed and upon request. 9 Active Shooter (18) This presentation provides information on police operations and what to expect during a shooting incident.

Crime Logs and Timely Warnings ASU Police will issue timely warnings in the form of crime alerts to ensure students, faculty, staff, and visitors receive notification of crimes which may present a threat to the campus community and to heighten safety awareness. The alert may also seek information which may lead to an arrest and conviction of the offender. The ASU Police Department is responsible for creating and publishing the crime alerts. These can be disseminated utilizing a variety of methods to include, but not limited to, the ASU Police website, email, electronic media, hand posting, and local media. The names and identifying information of victims will not be released. Crime alerts advise the community about violent crimes against persons, a series of crimes against property, or threats to persons or property in an effort to inform our community about potential risks and allow individuals to protect themselves against such risks. The alert may also provide details of the crime or threat, a description of the suspect (if known), information on who to contact about the investigation, and timely crime prevention tips. In regards to crime logs and timely warnings, ASU Police works closely with individuals reporting serious crimes to ensure the victim’s privacy while also ensuring the community has adequate information regarding potential risks. ASU Police and security personnel at Lake Havasu have requested cooperation from local law enforcement by asking to be kept apprised of crimes that warrant a timely warning or an emergency response. As a result, information for alerts can also come from other law enforcement agencies and other ASU offices. ASU Police will release important crime alerts electronically to campus partners and will distribute bulletins and flyers to the ASU community. The method of distribution depends on the nature of the crime and the threat to the community. You may view all current and recent alerts online at: http://cfo.asu.edu/police-campuscrime-alerts 11 Anyone with information warranting a timely warning should contact ASU Police at (480) 9653456 or Lake Havasu Police at (928) 855-4111. A daily police log documenting reported crimes is kept in accordance with the Higher Education Opportunity Act. The logs can be accessed electronically at http://cfo.asu.edu/policecampuscrime-logs or they may be viewed by going to any of the police department locations on our Downtown Phoenix, Polytechnic, Tempe, and West campuses. In addition to the daily crime log, individuals may review basic police report data to include date, time, location, report number, and type of crime reported in a geo-based format online at http://cfo.asu.edu/police-campuscrime-crimereports. Statistics for the ASU Colleges at Lake Havasu City can be viewed at https://www.crimereports.com/agency/lakehavasu and the crime log can be viewed by visiting the Santiago Hall Reception desk, 100 University Way, at ASU Colleges at Lake Havasu City. Emergency Response and Evacuation Procedures It is the University’s policy to notify, without delay, the campus community of any confirmed significant emergency or dangerous situation involving an immediate threat to the health and safety of individuals. The Chief of Police or his designee will determine the notification’s content and will initiate the notification system unless, in the professional judgment of responsible authorities, notification at that time would compromise efforts to assist victims or to contain, respond to, or otherwise mitigate the emergency. ASU Police Department has the authority to issue emergency messages as they deem necessary to maximize public safety. A determination regarding what segment of the campus community will receive the notification shall be based on the nature, severity, and location of the emergency. The same procedures will be used to notify the larger community. Methods Depending on the nature of the emergency, methods that may be deployed include: door-todoor notifications; ASU Police patrol vehicle public address system; crime alerts; text messages; reverse 9-1-1; ASU Police media notification system; freeway electronic billboards; ASU home page messages; ASU news page messages; mass e-mail and text via BlackBoard Connect; media alert (TV, print, radio, Internet); emergency information hotline messages; Facebook postings; Twitter messages; RSS feed; MyASU Web page alerts; and digital bulletin board postings. Because each situation will present individual challenges, some or all of these communication methods will be used in an emergency. Follow-up messages to the university and to broader audiences such as parents and alumni will be sent as needed. Procedures for Notification Depending on the severity of the incident, the ASU Police Department has the authority to send an emergency notification without prior approval. If the incident is a large-scale emergency, as determined by the incident commander (typically the top fire or police official at the scene), the incident commander will be responsible for making these decisions. For messages other than those sent by the ASU Police Department, it is the responsibility of the vice president of Media Relations/Strategic Communications or designee to determine the content of the notification. The Office of Media Relations/Strategic Communications will 12 coordinate with the university’s Emergency Policy Executive, ASU Web masters, Student Affairs personnel, and other responsible parties to ensure proper implementation of the methods determined to be appropriate for the incident at hand. The communication method and message are approved by the university’s Emergency Policy Executive or designee in consultation with the vice president of Media Relations/Strategic Communications or designee. While the ASU Police Department is the primary agency confirming significant emergencies on campus via notifications from 911 calls or from personal observations by its officers or other security personnel, other departments at ASU such as Risk and Emergency Management or Environmental Health and Safety may also confirm a significant emergency. The notification system’s purpose is to provide brief and immediate instructions to the campus community and identify other resources where additional information can be obtained. During an emergency, detailed information about an incident would be provided in other forms of communication, such as: text messages, email, notification on the official ASU website, electronic media, voice mail, hotline, and emergency bulletins issued through the media. ASU Police work closely with surrounding police agencies to help facilitate the sharing of incidents reported to them which might constitute the issuance of an emergency notification. A test of the procedures shall be conducted at least once each calendar year. One test each year will include a link to the ASU Emergency Notification Policy and a link to the ASU Emergency Response Guide. An actual incident in which the emergency notification system was activated shall not qualify as a test under this policy. Each test/incident shall be documented, to include: a description of the exercise/emergency, date, time, and whether announced or unannounced. Residence halls will have evacuation procedures tests/drills at least semi-annually. The Emergency Notification Policy is available at: http://www.asu.edu/aad/manuals/ehs/ehs206.html. To learn more about the University’s emergency notification and advisory service, please go to our secure website at http://www.asu.edu/go/alert_text Shelter-in-Place Procedures – What it Means to “Shelter-in-Place” If an incident occurs and the building(s) or areas around you become unstable, or if the air outdoors becomes dangerous due to toxic or irritating substances, it may be safer to stay indoors. Leaving the area may expose you to that danger caused by high winds, limited visibility, and respiratory-related issues to name a few. Thus, to “shelter-in-place” means to “make a shelter” using the building that you are in, and with a few adjustments this location can be made even safer and more comfortable until it is safe to go outside. Basic “Shelter-in-Place” Guidance During an incident, if the building you are in is not damaged and still affords protection, stay inside. If possible, move to an interior room and away from glass or items that might become dangerous flying objects. Stay inside until you are told the area is safe by designated staff or it is obvious the incident has passed and no longer poses a danger to your wellbeing. If the building you are in is damaged and no longer affords protection from the incident, take your belongings needed for personal care (purse, wallet, medications) as long as it does not slow your exit. Follow the evacuation protocols for your building (close your door, proceed to the nearest exit, and use the stairs instead of the elevators, etc.) Do not remove personal items (i.e. pictures, computer, etc.) Once evacuated, seek shelter at the nearest safe building. Follow all instructions given by first responders if they are already on scene. 13 How You Will Know to “Shelter-in-Place” A shelter-in-place notification may come from several sources, including ASU Police, Housing Staff members, University employees, or other authorities utilizing the University’s emergency communications tools. Examples are door-to-door notifications; ASU Police patrol vehicle public address system; crime alerts; text messages; reverse 9-1-1; ASU Police media notification system; freeway electronic billboards; ASU home page messages; ASU news page messages; mass e-mail; media alert (TV, print, radio, Internet); emergency information hotline messages; Facebook postings; Twitter messages; RSS feed; MyASU Web page alerts; and digital bulletin board postings. How to “Shelter–in-Place” No matter where you are, these basic steps should assist and should be considered unless instructed otherwise by emergency personnel. 1. If you are inside, stay where you are. Collect any emergency shelter-in-place supplies you may need if you must evacuate immediately. Supplies will also include any items you may need if utilities are severed and you must remain inside for a prolonged period of time (i.e., a flashlight, extra batteries, etc.) If you are caught outdoors, move quickly to the nearest undamaged building and take shelter. 2. If possible, your shelter area should be: • An interior room; • Above ground level; and • Without windows or with the least number of windows possible. 3. Shut and lock all windows (tighter seal) and close exterior doors. 4. Turn off air conditioners, heaters, and fans. 5. Close vents to ventilation systems if able. (University staff will turn off the ventilation as quickly as possible.) 6. Turn on a radio or TV (if power is still available) and listen for more information about the incident. FIRE SAFETY In compliance with the Higher Education Opportunity Act, the university provides fire statistics and a fire log with details of each fire that occurs on campus. To view the daily fire log, go to https://cfo.asu.edu/crime-logs and select the “Fire Logs” tab. The ASU Environmental Health and Safety department completes audits to ensure fire safety code compliance of all university facilities. In the event of a fire or a hazardous material situation, the surrounding municipal fire department will respond and handle the situation. Annual Fire Safety Report If a fire occurs in an ASU building, immediately call 9-1-1. ASU Police can summon the fire department quickly through a direct-dial phone communication link to the Tempe, Mesa and Phoenix Unified Communications Center. The 9-1-1 center in Lake Havasu City is a unified police and fire dispatch center. If a member of the ASU community finds evidence of a fire that has been extinguished, and the person is not sure whether ASU Police has already responded, the community member should immediately notify ASU Police to investigate and document the incident. For example, if a Community Assistant finds evidence of a fire in a trashcan in the hallway of a residence hall, 14 he/she should not touch the trashcan and should report the incident to ASU Police immediately and wait for an officer’s response. The officer will document the incident prior to removing the trashcan. Fire alarms alert community members of potential hazards and community members are required to heed their warning and evacuate buildings immediately upon hearing a fire alarm in a facility. Use the nearest stairwell and/or exit to leave the building immediately. Do not use the elevator. Community members should familiarize themselves with the exits in each building. The Police Department may arrest those who fail to evacuate a building promptly – but more importantly, evacuate so that you are safe! When a fire alarm is activated, the elevators in most buildings will stop automatically. Occupants should use the stairs to evacuate the building. If you are caught in the elevator, push the emergency phone button. The emergency phones in elevators on campus will ring to the ASU Police Communications Center or another emergency call center. ASU Police publishes this fire safety information as part of its annual Clery Act compliance document, which contains information with respect to the fire safety practices and standards for ASU. This report includes statistics concerning the number of fires, the cause of each fire, the number of injuries and deaths related to a fire, and the value of the property damage caused by a fire (see charts for more information). The Annual Security and Fire Safety Report is available for review 24 hours a day on the ASU Police website at http://police.asu.edu and a physical copy may be obtained by making a request to the ASU Police (480-965-3456). Fire Protection Equipment/Systems A majority of University buildings are equipped with automatic fire detection and alarm systems that are constantly monitored by staff at ASU Police. Refer to the Fire Safety Amenities in the subsequent chart for information about fire detection, notification, and suppression systems in each residential facility. Procedures for Students and Employees in the Event of a Fire Find the nearest pull station, and sound the central alarm. Shut all doors and windows in the vicinity of the fire. If the fire is small, consider using fire extinguishers to put it out. Exit by the nearest safe stairway. Do not use the elevators. Do not run. Fire Safety Education and Training Fire safety education and training for residential life students and support personnel is provided quarterly, in person, in the form of fire drills. The drills include announced and unannounced drills and are conducted by the ASU Fire Marshal’s Office. Additionally, all ASU employees are required to attend Fire Safety Training conducted by Environmental Health & Safety personnel upon hire and to take an online refresher training annually. University Documentation and Manuals Contact the ASU Fire Marshal for access to the Arizona State University Fire Prevention and Safety Plan. This guideline is provided as a general guideline for residential life facilities and does not cover all code compliance issues. If you have any questions or concerns, or need additional information, contact the ASU Fire Marshal at 480-965-1823 or email at asufire@asu.edu. 15 Residential Life Guidelines – Fire Safety ASU’s Residential Life supports the student population with living quarters on the university’s various campuses. ASU must ensure all operations and living quarters are safe and compliant with all applicable federal, state, and local codes, standards, and ordinances, e.g., Building Codes, Fire Codes, and Occupational Safety and Health. ASU Environmental Health & Safety (EH&S) is responsible for inspecting and coordinating with each unit representative within Residential Life to ensure a safe environment and operation. The following guidelines have been prepared for university personnel to facilitate proper use and operation of congregated residential facilities on university property. General Safety State and federal regulations specifically require the university to maintain facilities in a manner that promotes a safe environment for occupants to enter and exit a facility, as well as safe operations and use of the facility. The following guidelines will assist Residential Life in assuring each facility’s exit system is appropriately utilized and maintained: 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. Any material used in lobbies, corridors, stairwells, or other common areas shall not obstruct the exit passageway and must be of non-combustible material, made of fire resistive material, or is fire retardant treated. Exit signs must be operational and visually unobstructed (illuminated appropriately). Decorations are prohibited near any heat source. Distance from heat sources can only be determined by evaluating the area, decorative materials, and determining the heat source’s capabilities. Follow the manufacturer’s recommendations for installation and use when utilizing authorized equipment, installing equipment, or any temporary structure, display, or device. Contact ASU Environmental Health & Safety at 480-965-1823 prior to initiating any project related to construction, remodel, special event, and anything that involves the use of the exit system other than normal traffic ingress and egress. (Exit system includes—lobbies, corridors, hallways, exit doors, stairways, and exit passageways). Maintain clear unobstructed view and operation of any fire protection device (smoke detectors, heat detectors, manual fire pull stations, audible visual devices, fire sprinkler heads, fire panels, and special fire suppression systems/apparatus). Refuse (garbage) should be disposed (removed from the building) on a daily basis at a minimum. Electrical Safety The following guidelines must be assured whenever electrical equipment, lighting, or any electrical wiring is utilized or affected by decorative materials or displays: 1. 2. 3. All electrical equipment and lighting must be tested and approved by a recognized testing laboratory, e.g., Underwriters Laboratory (UL). All appliances and lighting must be inspected for damage and operability prior to use. Use appliances and lighting only as approved and recommended by the manufacturer. Lighting must be mounted in a manner that will not damage the wiring or be damaged by other equipment. Use of adhesive transparent tape to adhere wiring to walls or the use of hooks to drape wiring is acceptable for temporary conditions and if approved by EH&S or the ASU Fire Marshal. 16 4. 5. 6. Running electrical cords through doorways or any openings through walls, ceilings, or floors is prohibited. Extension cords must be at least a minimum of 16 gauge or heavier with a ground (three prong) and cannot run in series. The use of multi-plug adapters is prohibited. (Exception: any adapter or cord that has an operational circuit breaker is acceptable for more than one appliance as long as used within the recommended use, design, and load capacities of the manufacturer.) Christmas Trees and Other Plant Life Below are State Fire Marshal, ASU Fire Marshal, and other code requirements to follow whenever decorating or displaying materials utilizing any plant life for the interior or exterior of a facility: 1. 2. 3. 4. Cut Christmas trees are prohibited—only fire retardant artificial trees or "live" trees (root type in soil) are acceptable. Live trees must be checked daily and watered as needed. Trees shall not be located in any manner that will block or obstruct an exit or passageway. Only approved lighting shall be used on trees. Ensure that all electrical wiring is in good condition and connections are secure. Any decorations on or around the tree must be non-combustible or properly treated with fire retardant material. Palm fronds and any other cut vegetation are prohibited unless approved by EH&S for specific temporary use and verified all vegetation is fire retardant treated. (Exception: cut flowers are acceptable for temporary display in a personal area as long as it does not create a fire hazard.) Candles/Open Flames and other Heat Sources Any item utilized for decoration, display, or personal use that generates or emits heat must comply with the following guidelines: 1. 2. 3. Use of candles, open flames, and burning are prohibited in all university buildings. (Exception: Authorized "hot work" by qualified maintenance personnel and only if temporary approval is granted by the ASU Fire Marshal --Temporary approval is granted on a one-time individual case-by-case basis.) Portable heaters and other portable heat generating equipment must have appropriate safety features to automatically shut off power to equipment whenever tipped over or the temperature of the device exceeds the manufacturer’s predetermined heat exposure limit (must be U.L. listed). These must also be approved by the Dean, VP or property manager. Use of any type of heat generating product or equipment must be utilized as recommended by the manufacturer. Temporary Structures Temporary structures are facilities that are designed for temporary use or defined as temporary construction, e.g., trailers and tents. Each temporary structure must comply with the following: 1. 2. Trailer, tents, temporary walls or ceilings constructed of any materials must be approved by the ASU Fire Marshal. From any point, a minimum of a 2-A:10-B:C rated fire extinguisher must be within a 75-feet travel distance for light to moderate hazard areas, and 30 or 50 feet for high hazard areas (based on the type of hazardous operations for the area). (Travel distance cannot include steps, through secured doors, or any special 17 3. conditions that restrict the user in obtaining the fire extinguisher and returning to fight the fire.) Special fire protection measures may be necessary for events to meet the requirements of the International Building and Fire Codes. (These measures are determined by submitting the purpose and all pertinent information relating to the temporary structure to the ASU Fire Marshal.) Emergency Planning and Evacuation Emergency plans and drills are necessary for all facilities to help ensure a safe, effective, and efficient evacuation. Residential Life facilities require an emergency plan for each facility which includes quarterly fire drills (one will be an unannounced—no notice fire drill). Each staff working and/or residing in residential halls must be aware of the emergency plans, how to execute an evacuation, and proper notification procedures for prompt emergency response. The plan includes floor plans indicating exit locations, telephone numbers for emergency contact of occupants and responders, all egress notification procedures, evacuation procedures, and assembly area for accountability. Evacuation of Persons with Physical Disabilities Faculty, Staff, and Student Responsibilities:    You are responsible to plan for your own emergency evacuation. Familiarize yourself with the Fire evacuation routes and plans for every floor where you live, work, and the classroom you are attending. Know where the available exits, pull stations, evacuation routes, and areas of refuge are located. If you will need assistance with evacuation, first, identify the areas of refuge on the floor of your living space, office, or classroom. Second, plan to use a “buddy system.” Staff should connect with a co-worker; students should connect with another student, residence hall community assistant, or their instructor. Inform your “buddy” of your needs. Your “buddy” will be responsible for notifying emergency personnel of the exact location where you are waiting for rescue. Everyone should notify emergency personnel of any known students or staff with disabilities they believe are still in the building. Procedures on evacuation 1. During an emergency, i.e., fire alarm, all persons should proceed toward the nearest safe emergency exit. 2. On the ground floor, persons with physical disabilities, if able, should exit the building along with other building occupants. 3. On floors above or below ground level: a. Visually Impaired/Blind Tell the person with the visual impairment the nature of the emergency and offer to guide the person to the nearest exit. Have the person take your elbow and escort him/her out of the building. As you walk, advise the person of any obstacles. When you reach safety, orient the person to where he/she is and ask if any further assistance is necessary. b. Hard of Hearing/Deaf Alert the person that there is an emergency situation by using hand gestures or by turning the light switch on and off. Verbalize or mouth instructions or provide the 18 individual with a short note containing instructions. Offer assistance as you leave the building. c. Mobility Impaired Since elevators should not be used for evacuation during most emergencies, persons with mobility impairments (any impairment which renders an individual unable to exit the building on their own) will need assistance evacuating. Individuals who can walk may be able to evacuate themselves. Walk with the person to provide assistance if necessary. If you can, accompany the individual to a safe place (i.e., Emergency Evacuation Rescue Area, which is a corridor near an exit stairwell or inside the stairwell). Whenever possible, someone should remain with the person while another individual exits the building and notifies emergency personnel of the exact location of the person needing assistance. If you cannot accompany or remain with the individual, you should proceed directly out of the building and to emergency personnel to notify them of the exact location of the person needing assistance. DO NOT attempt to carry an individual out of a building. You could hurt that individual and yourself. Evacuating individuals who cannot exit the building due to any condition, for example if the individual uses a wheelchair or walker, will require that the individual go to an Emergency Evacuation Rescue Area. 4. Emergency Evacuation Rescue Area: Unless otherwise designated, this will be at the top of the stairwell landings on every level above or below exit grade level in any building. Note: It is important for persons with disabilities to work with the instructor, professor, teaching assistant, facilitator, director, supervisor, co-worker, co-student, or residence hall staff to preplan for any special considerations required for evacuation that are not included in this guideline.

Forest Ave. Yes Yes Yes 22 0 0 4/01/2013 Undetermined Health and Safety Inspections The University continues to assess and upgrade fire and life safety equipment/systems as an ongoing process to ensure that all equipment meets applicable codes and standards. The Office of Environmental Health & Safety (EH&S) performs Residence Hall Health and Safety Inspections and fire drills at least four times a year, at least one each quarter. Inspections will be announced only during the first round of the fall semester. All other inspections are unannounced. The EH&S inspections are primarily designed to find and eliminate safety violations. The inspections include, but are not limited to, a visual examination of electrical cords, sprinkler heads, smoke detectors, fire extinguishers and other life safety systems. In addition, each room will be examined for the presence of prohibited items (e.g., sources of open flames, such as candles; non-surge protected extension cords; halogen lamps; portable cooking appliances in non-kitchen areas; etc.) or prohibited activity (e.g., smoking in the room; tampering with life safety equipment; unlawful possession of pets; etc.). This health and safety inspection will also include a general assessment of food and waste storage and other sanitary considerations of the room. Prohibited items will be immediately disabled with a locking device or confiscated and donated/discarded if found, without reimbursement. Fire Safety Tips Buildings are equipped with a variety of features that are designed to detect, stop, and/or suppress the spread of a fire. A door can be the first line of defense against the spread of smoke or fire from one area to another. Some doors, such as fire doors in corridors or stairwells of residence halls, are designed to stand up to fire longer than those of an individual room. It is important that these doors are CLOSED for them to work. Additionally, if a door has a device that automatically closes the door, it should NOT be propped open. Sprinklers are 98% effective in preventing the spread of fire when operating properly. DO NOT obstruct the sprinkler heads with materials like clothing hanging from the piping. Smoke detectors cannot do their job if they are disabled or covered by the occupant, which is a violation of University Policy. A daily fire log is available for review 24 hours a day on the ASUPD website at http://police.asu.edu or at the ASU Police lobby at the Tempe campus. The information in the fire log typically includes information about fires that occur in residential facilities, including the nature, date, time, and general location. Tobacco use is prohibited on university property, facilities, grounds, parking structures, university-owned vehicles and structures owned or leased by the university. Almost three-fourths of all fires that are caused by smoking material are the result of a cigarette being abandoned or disposed of carelessly. PARKING AND TRANSIT SERVICES ASU Parking and Transit Services runs The Motorist Assistance Program (MAP) which includes help with a dead battery and assistance when car keys are locked inside the vehicle for the four campuses in the Phoenix Metropolitan area: Downtown Phoenix Campus Polytechnic Campus Mon-Fri: hours vary Mon-Fri: hours vary 602-496-1023 480-727-2775 Tempe Campus Mon-Fri: 7am-10pm 480-965-0641 23 West Campus Mon-Fri: hours vary 602-543-3258 Parking and Transit Services encourages all Sun Devils who bike on campus to register their bicycles with ASU. Bike registration is free and easy! Registration may assist in recovering a bicycle in the event it is stolen and may deter theft since registered bicycles are kept on record with ASU Police. Sun Devils may choose any of the following options to register their bikes:    For questions about bicycle registration, call the ASU Bicycle Program at 480-965-6124. Visit any of the PTS campus customer service office locations* Register online at parking.asu.edu and go to “My Transportation Account” *Registration is not available at the PTS @ The MU office. Some of the benefits that registered cyclists enjoy include use of the Tempe and Downtown Phoenix campus card-access bike-parking facilities as well as expedited drop-off service at the free Tempe bike valet station. SECURITY AND ACCESS TO CAMPUS BUILDINGS AND GROUNDS As a public university, many areas on ASU’s campuses are accessible to the general public 24 hours a day. Consequently, regardless of the time of day or night, and no matter where you may be on campus, it is important for you to be alert and aware of your surroundings and exercise personal safety at all times. Non-Residential Buildings Most campus buildings and facilities are open during regular business hours during the day and evening when classes are in session and events are occurring. At other times, university buildings are generally locked and only faculty, staff, students, and authorized individuals are admitted. Do not leave doors propped open or unlocked after hours. Remember, if your campus keys/access cards are lost or stolen, report the loss immediately to your department and the ASU Police key control, by calling (480) 965-6090. At ASU Colleges at Lake Havasu City, report lost keys or access cards to administrative staff in Santiago Hall or call (928) 854-9705. The Academic Building Security (ABS) program was started in 1998 to add a higher level of security to the academic buildings. Police aides patrol the academic buildings on foot on ASU campuses in the Phoenix metropolitan area. Police aides assist the patrol officers with their duties and provide, when available, safety escorts for members of the university community. Police aides assist with security of the community by serving as the “eyes and ears” of the department. Residential Buildings Approximately 10,000 students live on the ASU Tempe campus, 1,413 on the Polytechnic campus, 534 on the West campus, and 1,279 on the Downtown Phoenix campus. University Housing manages the residential facilities at the Tempe, Poly, West, and Downtown Phoenix campuses, and Havasu Hospitality Partners, LLC manages the residential facilities at ASU Colleges at Lake Havasu. Access to all ASU residential facilities is restricted to residents and their guests. Residents are expected to comply with the hall visitation policy, to lock doors when leaving rooms, to close and lock outside doors when found open, to use only designated 24 entrances to the facilities, and to deny entrance to non-residents and uninvited guests. Report non-compliance of these guidelines to your residence hall staff immediately. To provide additional residential building safety, the police aide patrol provides additional security for students and staff at the ASU Campuses in the Phoenix metropolitan area. The coordinated efforts of police patrols, police aide patrols, and University Housing staff help to promote an increased awareness of safety issues. Information about security measures at individual campuses is available through the hall staff or from officers identified in this document. MISSING STUDENT NOTIFICATION POLICY In compliance with the Higher Education Opportunity Act, the university has established a Missing Student Notification Policy which describes the formal notification procedure to be followed when a student residing in on-campus housing has been reported missing for more than 24 hours. (An on-campus student housing facility is defined as any dormitory or other residential facility for students located on an institution’s campus even if the building is owned or maintained by a student organization or another party.) Report any student missing for more than 24 hours, sooner if suspicious circumstances exist, to ASU Police at (480) 965-3456 and, in Lake Havasu, contact the Lake Havasu Police at (928) 855-4111. Each Arizona State University student residing on-campus may identify an individual to be contacted by the university in the event that the student is determined to be missing for at least 24 hours. The contact person will be notified within 24 hours of the report. The contact person will be confidential and utilized only for this purpose and only by authorized officials or police. Unless otherwise specified by the student to University Housing, the university will consider the parent/guardian or other primary emergency contact provided to the university by the student to be the person to be contacted in the event the student is determined to be missing. For students under the age of 18 and not emancipated, the university is required to notify the custodial parent or guardian not later than 24 hours after a student is deemed missing. Regardless of whether the student has identified a contact person, is above the age of 18, or is an emancipated minor, ASU must notify the local law enforcement agency which has jurisdiction in the area within 24 once the student is deemed missing. The Missing Student Notification Policy is available at http://www.asu.edu/aad/manuals/ssm/ssm1001-07.html. To register an emergency contact, visit https://asu.secure.force.com/kb/articles/FAQ/Submit-yourEmergency-Contact-Information-for-University-Housing/?l=en_US&fs=RelatedArticle ASU CAMPUS MAINTENANCE The Tempe, West, Polytechnic, and Downtown Phoenix campuses are maintained by ASU Facilities Development and Management. Facilities Development and Management maintains and responds to reports of malfunctioning equipment within campus buildings and residence halls. To foster a safe campus environment, the ASU Police Department periodically consults with Facilities Development and Management regarding the maintenance and location of landscaping foliage and exterior lighting. To report deficiencies or request service: 25 FOR URGENT FACILITY NEEDS: 24-HOURS A DAY, 7 DAYS A WEEK Tempe: Polytechnic: West: Downtown Phoenix: Residential Facilities: 480-965-3633 480-727-1110 480-543-3200 602-496-1502 480-965-3633 FOR NON-EMERGENCY REQUESTS: https://cfo.asu.edu/fdm-requests-for-service Taylor Place residents: To request room repairs, (such as a burned out light bulb, leaky faucet, etc.), go to the Taylor Place Management Office between 8 a.m. - 8 p.m. to fill out a work order request. ASU Colleges at Lake Havasu City: For non-emergency maintenance issues Monday through Sunday, students fill out a Residence Hall maintenance request and turn it in in the Residence Hall Common Room, which is then forwarded on to maintenance. For maintenance emergencies, students contact the maintenance technician directly who is on-call at (602) 7250107. If having difficulty contacting the maintenance technician, they can call the Community Assistant (who lives on site in #115) at (623) 388-7306 or the Resident Assistant (who lives on site in #114) at (720) 413-0192. CAMPUS SAVE ACT Sexual Assault, Domestic and Dating Violence, and Stalking The Campus Sexual Violence Elimination Act (SaVE Act) was passed in March 2013 as part of the Violence Against Women Reauthorization Act (VAWA). As a result, universities must include statistics on incidents of domestic violence, dating violence, sexual assault, and stalking. ASU specifically prohibits dating violence, domestic violence, sexual assault, and stalking. ASU recognizes that sexual misconduct, including sexual violence, is a societal problem, and members of university and college communities certainly have not been immune. Such violence has a profound impact on a victim’s academic, social, and personal life, and negatively affects the experiences of their friends and families, other students, and all members of the university community. Title IX of the Education Amendments of 1972 protects individuals from discrimination based on sex in any educational program or activity operated by recipients of federal financial assistance. Sexual harassment, which includes acts of sexual violence, is a form of sex discrimination prohibited by Title IX. ASU does not discriminate on the basis of sex in the employment, education programs or activities it operates. ASU’s Title IX Coordinator (480-965-0696) works with the Office of Equity and Inclusion (OEI) which is available to investigate and resolve allegations of unlawful discrimination or harassment, including all forms of sexual misconduct involving faculty, staff, and other ASU affiliates. The Title IX Coordinator also works with ASU’s Student Rights and Responsibilities, which investigates and resolves allegations involving Student Code of Conduct violations. All complaints of such conduct are taken seriously and appropriate action will be taken to hold violators accountable and to prevent any recurrence. Arizona State University is committed to combatting this complex social problem and strives to foster a positive learning, working and living environment that promotes every individual’s ability 26 to participate fully in the ASU experience without fear of sexual harassment, sexual violence, sexual assault, domestic violence, dating violence, or stalking. Through university policies (e.g., ACD 401, SSM 104-01, SSM 104-04), awareness efforts, education and training programs, and advocacy, every member of the ASU community should be prepared to actively contribute to a culture of respect. To view ASU policies, education and training programs, and resources go to https://sexualviolenceprevention.asu.edu/ ASU has a comprehensive campaign involving training, awareness, and prevention, for new and returning students and employees, to address sexual harassment, sexual assault, domestic violence, dating violence, and stalking. The program is culturally relevant, inclusive of diverse communities and identities, and responsive to the needs of the ASU community. An overview of the program is provided at Appendix A. Starting in Fall 2015, new students will participate in training to learn how to raise awareness about sexual violence, prevention, and bystander intervention through education in their ASU 101 classes. Additionally, all new ASU students (first-time freshmen, transfers, and new graduate students) will be asked to complete A Community of Care, an online educational module designed to provide information and training about ASU’s values and code of conduct as well as training to enhance awareness of sexual violence and its impact on college students, and to provide critical information on what to do if you or someone you know experiences sexual violence. Expanded sexual assault prevention training and education is also provided to all faculty and staff. Information on ASU’s numerous, ongoing training and education programs dedicated to combating sexual violence, sexual assault, domestic violence, dating violence, and stalking is located at https://sexualviolenceprevention.asu.edu/. This web portal provides a comprehensive list of campus and other available resources. All of this work is in addition to the training provided on Consent and Respect, which started in fall 2014 whereby 34,979 students completed an online training on sexual violence education and prevention. To prevent sexual assault, domestic violence, dating violence, and stalking, members of the ASU community must commit to looking out for one another. An overview of ASU’s bystander training is found at Appendix A. As part of the training, attendees learn about safe and positive options for preventing harm and intervening when there is a risk of sexual assault, dating violence, domestic violence, or stalking. Training includes recognizing situations which could increase the potential for harm, understanding conditions that facilitate violence, overcoming barriers that keep people from intervening, safe and effective intervention options, and steps for taking action to intervene. Step Up and Do Your Part (Bystander Intervention) Our community expects that you will step up and help others in need. It’s the Sun Devil Way. This creates a powerful network of students who watch out for each other, show concern for each other’s well-being, and help prevent harmful situations from occurring. How and when to intervene are often difficult decisions and your first concern should always be safety. If you or someone else is in immediate danger, call 9-1-1 immediately. Included below are some general tips about intervention when the situation does not pose an immediate threat of danger. 1. Pay attention. It is easy to miss something if you are not aware of what is going on in your surroundings. If you get the sense that something is wrong, then trust your instincts. If you are observing a situation where someone is feeding another person alcohol or other drugs you need to step in. 27 2. Take personal responsibility. People often do not intervene because they believe it is not their responsibility or that someone else will help the person. Think about what you would want someone to do for you or for a friend or family member. As Sun Devils, we want ASU to be a safe community and it is important to watch out for members of your Sun Devil family. 3. Decide how to help. In order to decide how to help you will need to assess the situation. Is it safe for you to intervene on your own? Should you call others to help you? Should the police be involved? Thinking about these questions will help you to determine how you can effectively address the situation. 4. Early Intervention. It is important to intervene as soon as you notice that someone might be in danger. It is typically safer and more effective to intervene before a situation escalates. You should never intervene if you feel your personal safety is at risk. If you feel unsafe you should get the police involved so that they can address the situation. Refer peers to resources. There are a variety of resources on campus that can help someone who experiences sexual violence. If someone comes to you and says they have been sexually assaulted, then it is your role to believe them. Educating yourself on the resources available will prepare you to help someone who may disclose sexual violence to you. For more information visit https://sexualviolenceprevention.asu.edu/ Training also focuses on risk reduction (Appendix A). Options for acting are presented with the intent of decreasing bystander inaction, increasing victim empowerment, promoting safety, and addressing conditions that facilitate violence. Cases involving allegations of sexual assault, domestic violence, dating violence, and stalking which are reported at ASU are promptly, fairly, and thoroughly investigated. ASU provides victims with resources that let them know they are not alone including, but not limited to, providing guidance on finding a safe place, filing a police report, talking with counselors, seeking medical care, and changing student living, academic, transportation, or work situations. To learn more, visit https://sexualviolenceprevention.asu.edu/ Campus SaVE Act Statistics The Campus SaVE Act requires ASU to compile statistics on domestic violence, dating violence, and stalking in addition to the other enumerated crimes. The Campus SaVE Act defines domestic violence and dating violence by referencing the applicable state laws. In Arizona, domestic violence and dating violence are found in Arizona Revised Statutes § 13-3601; both are consolidated under the domestic violence category. The Campus SaVE Act expanded the University’s role in reporting and responding to crimes 1 of domestic violence, dating violence, sexual assault, and stalking. The Arizona Revised Statutes and Campus SaVE Act contain the following definitions: A.R.S. § 13-1406 Sexual Assault A. A person commits sexual assault by intentionally or knowingly engaging in sexual intercourse or oral sexual contact with any person without consent of such person. 1 The ASU Student Code of Conduct includes administrative definitions for these matters that control in the course of a student disciplinary proceeding. 28 The Campus SaVE Act also includes, under the category of sexual assault, the specific offenses of rape, statutory rape, fondling, and incest as used in the FBI’s UCR program. These terms are defined in the Crime Definitions section of this report. A.R.S. § 13-1401 “Without Consent” “Without consent” includes any of the following:  The victim is coerced by the immediate use or threatened use of force against a person or property;  The victim is incapable of consent by reason of mental disorder, mental defect, drugs, alcohol, sleep or any other similar impairment of cognition and such condition is known or should have reasonably been known to the defendant (“mental defect” means the victim is unable to comprehend the distinctively sexual nature of the conduct or is incapable of understanding or exercising the right to refuse to engage in the conduct with another);  The victim is intentionally deceived as to the nature of the act;  The victim is intentionally deceived to erroneously believe that the person is the victim’s spouse. A.R.S. § 13-3601 Domestic Violence A crime of violence or criminal damage, if any of the following apply: 1. The relationship between the victim and the defendant is one of marriage or former marriage or of persons residing or having resided in the same household. 2. The victim and the defendant have a child in common. 3. The victim or the defendant is pregnant by the other party. 4. The victim is related to the defendant or the defendant’s spouse by blood or court order as a parent, grandparent, child, grandchild, brother or sister or by marriage as a parent-in-law, grandparent-in-law, stepparent, step-grandparent, stepchild, step-grandchild, brother-in-law or sister-in-law. 5. The victim is a child who resides or has resided in the same household as the defendant and is related by blood to a former spouse of the defendant or to a person who resides or who has resided in the same household as the defendant. 6. [Dating Violence] The relationship between the victim and the defendant is currently or was previously a romantic or sexual relationship. The following factors may be considered in determining whether the relationship between the victim and the defendant is currently or was previously a romantic or sexual relationship: (a) The type of relationship. (b) The length of the relationship. (c) The frequency of the interaction between the victim and the defendant. (d) If the relationship has terminated, the length of time since the termination. 29 Under the Campus SaVE Act, domestic violence includes a felony or misdemeanor crime of violence. Dating violence includes sexual or physical abuse or the threat of such abuse. A.R.S. § 13-2923 Stalking A. A person commits stalking if the person intentionally or knowingly engages in a course of conduct that is directed toward another person and if that conduct causes the victim to: 1. Suffer emotional distress or reasonably fear that either: (a) The victim's property will be damaged or destroyed. (b) Any of the following will be physically injured: (i) The victim. (ii) The victim's family member, domestic animal or livestock. (iii) A person with whom the victim has or has previously had a romantic or sexual relationship. (iv) A person who regularly resides in the victim's household or has resided in the victim's household within the six months before the last conduct occurred. 2. Reasonably fear death or the death of any of the following: (a) The victim's family member, domestic animal or livestock. (b) A person with whom the victim has or has previously had a romantic or sexual relationship. (c) A person who regularly resides in the victim's household or has resided in the victim's household within the six months before the last conduct occurred. B. This section does not apply to an interactive computer service, as defined in 47 United States Code section 230(f)(2), or to an information service or telecommunications service, as defined in 47 United States Code section 153, for content that is provided by another person. C. Stalking under subsection A, paragraph 1 of this section is a class 5 felony. Stalking under subsection A, paragraph 2 of this section is a class 3 felony. D. For the purposes of this section: 1. "Course of conduct": (a) Means directly or indirectly, in person or through one or more third persons or by any other means, to do any of the following: (i) Maintain visual or physical proximity to a specific person or direct verbal, written or other threats, whether express or implied, to a specific person on two or more occasions over a period of time, however short. 30 (ii) Use any electronic, digital or global positioning system device to surveil a specific person or a specific person's internet or wireless activity continuously for twelve hours or more or on two or more occasions over a period of time, however short, without authorization. (iii) Communicate, or cause to be communicated, on more than one occasion words, images or language by or through the use of electronic mail or an electronic communication that is directed at a specific person without authorization and without a legitimate purpose. (b) Does not include constitutionally protected activity or other activity authorized by law, the other person, the other person's authorized representative or if the other person is a minor, the minor's parent or guardian. 2. "Emotional distress" means significant mental suffering or distress that may, but does not have to, require medical or other professional treatment or counseling. The Campus SaVE Act and the ASU Student Code of Conduct also consider stalking to include engaging in a course of conduct directed at a specific person that would cause a reasonable person to suffer substantial emotional distress. Reporting the Incident We strongly encourage victims of sexual assault, domestic violence, dating violence, sexual harassment, or stalking to seek support and report the incident. The following reporting options are available to ASU students, faculty, and staff who have been victimized or who know someone who has been or is being victimized. We understand individual circumstances may determine if and how a victim chooses to make a report. A victim can choose to pursue one or more of these reporting options by going to https://sexualviolenceprevention.asu.edu/      File a criminal report with the ASU Police Department File a report with the ASU Office of Student Rights and Responsibilities File a report with the ASU Office of Equity and Inclusion, (480) 965-5057, University Center Bldg. A, 1100 E University Dr., Tempe, AZ Anonymously Report an incident by calling the ASU Hotline at 877-786-3385 Unsure who to talk to? Contact the university Title IX Coordinator: TitleIXCoordinator@asu.edu; (480) 965-0696 Victims of sexual assault, domestic violence, dating violence, or stalking are encouraged to report the assault to police. ASU Police can be contacted 24 hours a day at (480) 965-3456 or refer to https://sexualviolenceprevention.asu.edu/. Reporting is best done as soon as possible, but it may be done at any time. It is important to preserve evidence that may assist in proving that the alleged criminal offense occurred or which may be helpful in obtaining a protective order. In an effort to preserve evidence, victims of sexual assault should not shower, douche, urinate, brush their teeth, or change/discard their clothing until evidence can be collected. Try to preserve evidence even if you are unsure at the time whether to pursue pressing criminal charges. Reporting sexual assault, domestic violence, dating violence, or stalking to ASU Police does not require the filing of criminal charges, but it does activate all support systems, including campus resources. Victims may notify ASU Police or local law enforcement directly or, if the victim so elects, the ASU Office of Student Rights and Responsibilities or a Campus Security Authority (identified later in this report) can assist the victim in notifying law enforcement authorities. A victim may 31 decline to notify law enforcement but still take advantage of all other ASU and local support systems. When a student or employee reports to ASU that he or she has been a victim of dating violence, domestic violence, sexual assault, or stalking, whether the offense occurred on or off campus, ASU will provide the student or employee a written explanation of the student’s or employee’s rights and options. ASU will maintain the confidentiality of the information it receives, except where disclosure is required by law, necessary to protect the health, safety, or security of others, or is necessary to facilitate legitimate university processes, including the reporting, investigation and resolution of discrimination, harassment or retaliation allegations. ASU will also complete publicly available recordkeeping, including Clery Act reporting and disclosures, without the inclusion of personally identifying information about the victim. If a “timely warning” is required related to an act of sexual violence, ASU will not disclose the names of victims. For greater confidentiality, see Confidential Conversation below. Free Forensic Sexual Exam The Federal Government under the Violence Against Women Reauthorization Act (VAWA) requires states which receive federal funding under VAWA, as Arizona does, to provide forensic sexual examinations to all victims regardless of whether police involvement is desired. The forensic sexual exam is always free of charge to the victim of a crime of sexual violence. If a victim chooses to report a crime of sexual violence to the ASU Police Department, the police will assist the victim in contacting a Sexual Assault Response Team Center. However, as noted, a victim may obtain a forensic sexual examination without police involvement. To obtain a free exam, a victim should contact: Sexual Assault Response Team (SART) Centers The following Phoenix area family advocacy centers can perform this examination:  Mesa Family Advocacy Center 225 E. 1st St., Mesa, AZ 85201 480-644-4075 http://acfan.net/centers/mesa-center.htm  Family Advocacy Center 2120 N.

Additionally, when a student or employee reports that he or she has been a victim of sexual assault, dating violence, domestic violence, or stalking, whether the offense occurred on or off campus, ASU will provide the student or employee with a written explanation of the student or employee’s rights and options. 35 “Consent” Under ABOR Student Code of Conduct According to the ABOR Student Code of Conduct, “consent” is defined as: “Consent” in the context of sexual activity means informed and freely given words or actions that indicate a willingness to participate in mutually agreed upon sexual activity. Consent may not be inferred from: 1) silence, passivity or lack of resistance, 2) a current or previous dating or sexual relationship, 3) acceptance or provisions of gifts, meals, drinks, or other items, or 4) previous consent to sexual activity. Consent may be withdrawn during sexual activity. Consent to one form of consensual sexual activity does not imply consent to any other form of sexual activity. Consent may not be obtained through physical force, violence, duress, intimidation, coercion, or an expressed or implied threat of injury. Consent may never be given by a person who is: incapacitated (by drugs, alcohol or otherwise), unconscious, asleep, or otherwise physically or mentally unable to make informed, rational judgments. The use of alcohol or drugs does not diminish one’s responsibility to obtain consent and does not excuse conduct that violates this Student Code of Conduct. Consent cannot be given by someone who, by virtue of age, circumstances or other factors, is deemed by law to be incapable of giving consent. University Complaint and Disciplinary Proceedings for Students and Employees In cases of sexual assault, domestic violence, dating violence, and stalking, ASU shall provide prompt, fair, and impartial proceedings, which will include an administrative investigation and a resolution process. A written explanation of rights and options is provided as part of the administrative process. The process for filing a disciplinary complaint against a student and the various steps in the complaint review process are found in the Student Code of Conduct (Appendix B) and the Student Disciplinary Procedures (Appendix C). The process for filing a disciplinary complaint against an employee and the steps in the complaint review process are found in ACD 401 and P20 (Appendix D). The type of proceeding will be determined by the circumstances of the allegation. The various disciplinary policies and procedures applicable to administrators, faculty, academic professionals, and staff are found in SPP 808 (Appendix E), SPP 809 (Appendix F), ABOR 6-201 (Appendix G), ABOR 6-302 (Appendix H), and ABOR 6101 (Appendix I). For sworn law enforcement officers, discipline will also be administered in accordance with A.R.S. § 38-1101 et seq. Proceedings shall be conducted by officials who receive annual training on issues related to sexual assault, domestic violence, dating violence, and stalking. They shall receive training on how to conduct an investigation and a hearing process that protects the safety of victims, promotes accountability, and is just. Officials will not have a conflict of interest nor bias for or against the accuser or accused. In these proceedings, the accuser and accused are both entitled to the same opportunities to have others present during an institutional disciplinary proceeding, including the opportunity to 36 be accompanied to any related meeting or proceeding by an advisor of their choice. Both the accuser and the accused shall be simultaneously informed, in writing, of the outcome of the disciplinary proceeding, the University’s procedures for the accused and the accuser to appeal the results of the disciplinary proceeding (if an appeal process applies), any change to the results that occurs prior to the time that the results become final, and when the results become final, and the rationale for the decision. (If the alleged victim is deceased as a result of such action, the next of kin of the victim shall be treated as the alleged victim.) A preponderance of evidence standard will apply to all university proceedings. The parties will be given timely and equal access to any information which will be used during informal and formal disciplinary meetings and hearings. Proceedings will be completed within a reasonably prompt timeframe, which includes a process for extension of timeframes for good cause with written notice to the accuser and accused with reasons for the delay. If an accused student is suspended or expelled, either that student or the victim/student may appeal to the University Hearing Board. The aforementioned rights and procedures also apply to this appeal process. ASU will, upon written request, disclose to the alleged victim of a crime of violence (as that term is defined in 18 U.S.C. § 16), or an incident of incest or statutory rape, the report on the results of any disciplinary proceeding conducted against a student who is the alleged perpetrator of such crime or offense. If the alleged victim is deceased as a result of such crime or offense, the next of kin of such victim shall be treated as the alleged victim. ASU, its officers, employees, and agents, may not retaliate, intimidate, threaten, coerce, or otherwise discriminate against any individual for exercising their rights to avail themselves of any ASU complaint or appeal procedures. Sanctions Sexual assault, domestic violence, dating violence, and stalking are criminal acts which carry criminal and civil penalties under state and/or federal law. Such conduct is also contrary to ASU policy and can lead to administrative and/or disciplinary action. University students found responsible for committing such conduct may be subject to the following University sanctions: expulsion, suspension, degree revocation, academic probation, warnings, administrative hold, restricted access to University property, organizational sanctions, educational response, program/support termination, interim action, restitution, notation on transcript, or other sanctions permissible under University policy. ASU employees, including student workers, found responsible for committing such conduct may face sanctions including, but not limited to, written reprimand, demotion, suspension, termination of employment, or other action permissible under University policy. Retaliation ASU prohibits retaliation by its officers, employees, students, representatives, or agents against a person who exercises his or her rights or responsibilities under any provision of the Campus SaVE Act. No one may retaliate, intimidate, threaten, coerce, or otherwise discriminate against any individual for exercising his or her rights or responsibilities under the Act. Retaliation is also prohibited under ABOR 5-308, Student Code of Conduct, and ACD 401, Prohibition Against Discrimination, Harassment and Retaliation. 37 Crime Prevention Programs: Sexual Violence ASU Police, the Dean of Student’s Office, and other departments on campus provide numerous ongoing educational programs in the effort to reduce the risk of sexual violence. Beginning with summer orientation and continuing throughout the year, new and returning students are provided the opportunity to attend educational presentations related to sexual violence prevention and survival. To learn more, contact the ASU Police Crime Prevention Unit at (480) 965-1972 and refer to https://sexualviolenceprevention.asu.edu/. The ASU Police Crime Prevention Unit has implemented a nationally recognized self-defense program: Rape Aggression Defense Systems (R.A.D.). R.A.D. is a 12-hour training course designed to maximize the physical defense abilities of women and men. Unlike other selfdefense programs, R.A.D. teaches basic, practical techniques that require no special fitness level or equipment. The objective of the program is to help people develop and enhance the options of self-defense when being attacked. Participants have the opportunity to test their newly learned defensive strategies during simulated attack scenarios. The R.A.D. program is an alliance of instructors who can assist one another with programs, equipment, experiences, and insight. Most importantly, they allow every participant a lifetime return and practice invitation, at no charge, anywhere a R.A.D. program is offered. Annually, ASU hosts a Sexual Assault Response Panel. Attendees of this event learn about sexual assault services for ASU students, professional response to sexual violence, definitions of sexual assault and consent, perpetrator accountability, victim blaming, safety, and prevention tips. This event is sponsored annually by ASU Wellness and affiliated student organizations. ASU provides education addressing sexual violence and consent in a variety of formats. Information and resources are available online and presentations are available on a variety of topics. A full list can be found in Appendix A. Crime Prevention Tips: Sexual Violence           Clearly communicate your sexual interests and boundaries with potential partners. Avoid sexual situations with people who disregard your opinions and limits. Ask questions to determine unquestionably if your partner has consented to sexual intercourse. State clearly, emphatically, and forcefully if consent is not given. Don’t be afraid to cause a scene if you feel threatened. If you decide to drink alcohol, do so in moderation. Alcohol and drugs limit your ability to make good decisions for yourself and others. A national study found 73% of suspects and 55% of the victims were under the influence of alcohol or drugs at the time of the sexual assault. As a female, avoid parties where males greatly outnumber females. Remember that 9 out of 10 college student victims of sexual violence knew their assailant. Be alert for signs the other person is attempting to isolate you. Bystanders: Intervene if you see something happening that could lead to sexual violence. If you don’t feel safe intervening on your own, call 9-1-1. Always lock your door when you are asleep or not in the room, even if you will only be gone for a minute. Sexual violence can happen to anyone. If you or a friend has experienced sexual violence visit the ASU Wellness website to learn what you can do. https://eoss.asu.edu/wellness/SVHelp 38 Campus Sex Crimes Prevention Act The Campus Sex Crimes Prevention Act (CSCPA) mandates that convicted sex offenders who are required to register under state law must also disclose their association with institutions of higher education when applicable. Specifically affected are those registered sex offenders who attend as students, are employed by or employed at, or volunteer at institutions of higher education. The CSCPA amends the Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act of 1974 (FERPA) to clarify that nothing in FERPA can prohibit an educational institution from disclosing information provided to the institution concerning registered sex offenders. The Arizona Department of Public Safety (DPS) has established the Arizona Sex Offender Info Center according to the requirements of A.R.S. § 13-3827. Arizona DPS is responsible for maintaining the site and annually verifying the addresses of all registered sex offenders. For more information go to: http://www.azdps.gov/Services/Sex_Offender/ ASU Police, in conjunction with Arizona DPS and the Maricopa County Sheriff’s Office, will notify the campus community of a registered sex offender, as required by law. The notification process could be through the Crime Alert Notification (CAN) network, safety alerts on the ASU Police Web page, and/or safety alert fliers posted on campus.

Information is available at http://www.asu.edu/studentaffairs/vp/safetyresources/index.htm. Resources can also be found at https://sexualviolenceprevention.asu.edu/ WEAPONS PROHIBITED ON CAMPUS Possession or storage of weapons at any ASU residential housing facility is prohibited. Possession, use, or storage of weapons on land and in buildings owned, leased, or under the control of Arizona State University or its affiliated or related entities is prohibited, except as provided for in A.R.S. § 12-781. This prohibition extends to all ASU vehicles present on any property owned or controlled by ASU or an ASU affiliate or related entity. The definition of weapons includes any object or substance designed to inflict a wound, cause injury, or incapacitate, including without limitation to: all firearms, TASER®, stun guns, BB guns, pellet guns, Airsoft guns, switchblade knives, knives with blades five or more inches long, and chemicals such as Mace, tear gas, or oleoresin capsicum (excluding typical over-the-counter self-defense chemical repellents). Chemical repellents labeled “for police use only” or “for law enforcement use only” may not be possessed by the general public. ASU students and employees are required to report known and suspected violations of the weapons policy to ASU Police immediately. Failure to report as required may result in sanctions under applicable Arizona Board of Regents (ABOR) and ASU policies governing student and employee conduct. [A.R.S. § 13-2911, § 13-3102; Policy PDP 201-05; ABOR Policies 5303(3), 5-308] Participants or attendees at public or special events held on campus or at university facilities may be required to submit to security checks as a condition of entry at the discretion of the event sponsor. If you are a witness to a crime involving a weapon, please call 9-1-1 immediately. If you see a weapon of any kind on campus, alert ASU Police by calling (480) 965-3456, Lake Havasu City Police at (928) 855-4111, or 9-1-1. REPORTING HATE CRIMES & INCIDENTS Hate crimes are not separate distinct crimes but instead involve any traditional criminal offense that is committed against a person or property, which is motivated by a victim’s actual or perceived race, religion, ethnicity, national origin, gender, disability, gender identity, or sexual orientation. Arizona State University takes a strong stance against hate crimes, violent acts, property damage, intimidation, and threats because of a person’s perceived personal characteristics. Hate groups and individuals have the right to exist, assemble, and express their views. However, they do not have the right to break any laws. In Arizona, any speech that threatens violence or physical harm to specific persons or groups may constitute a crime. Most verbal and written expression is constitutionally protected, so racial slurs or derogatory speech is not enough to be considered a crime. 40 Hate crimes will not be tolerated or dismissed as “pranks” or “bad behavior.” Hate crimes should be reported to the appropriate university departments and organizations so proper follow-through can occur. Immediately report any hate crime incident. Reporting a hate crime is a key part of stopping hateful acts. If you or someone you know reports a hate crime, the matter will be taken seriously. A thorough investigation will be conducted and, if evidence warrants, administrative or criminal proceedings will follow. Call or report the hate crime incident to police at 9-1-1 for an emergency; ASU Police at (480) 965-3456 or Lake Havasu City Police at (928) 855-4111 for a non-emergency. The crime or incident may also be reported or referred to the following entities at each campus: Tempe West Polytechnic Downtown Phoenix Student Rights and Responsibilities (480) 965-6547 (602) 543-8152 (480) 727-1215 (602) 496-1215 Comm. for Campus Inclusion (480) 965-6547 (602) 543-8407 (480) 727-1165 (602) 496-1208 ASU Colleges at Lake Havasu City, Office of the Dean of Student Affairs: (928) 854-9705 DISCIPLINARY ACTION: STUDENTS, STAFF, AND FACULTY Students Guided by ASU’s commitment to excellence, access, and impact, the Office of Student Rights and Responsibilities (SRR) supports a safe and inclusive environment that fosters the intellectual, personal, social, and ethical development of all students. In partnership with university departments and programs, SRR helps students see themselves as responsible members in a diverse community. SRR provides students with the opportunity to consider the ways in which their conduct may define and impact their college experience—personally and in relationship with others. SRR investigates allegations of student misconduct and determines whether a violation of the Student Code of Conduct (Appendix B) has occurred. Students who are found responsible for violations of the Student Code of Conduct are encouraged to reflect on their behaviors through the use of educationally-based sanctioning that assists the students in making informed choices and developing in a holistic manner (Student Disciplinary Procedures, Appendix C). Incident Reports are accepted from students, faculty, staff, or other persons who believe that a student or a student organization may have violated the ABOR Student Code of Conduct. Fill out and submit the Incident Report to the Office of Student Rights and Responsibilities on the respective campus: https://eoss.asu.edu/sites/default/files/Incident_Report.pdf. No appointment is required to pick up or drop off an Incident Report. SRR Staff may also initiate review under the Student Code of Conduct based on police reports, applicable newspaper articles, or other forms of documentation. ASU also works with local law enforcement to identify students involved in off-campus criminal conduct, including criminal conduct arising out of the off-campus activities of those student organizations officially recognized by the university, including student organizations with off-campus housing facilities Additionally, any relevant information pertaining to any student, found in the course of a review, may also be deemed to constitute a complaint and may be pursued accordingly under the 41 ABOR Student Code of Conduct. The ABOR Student Code of Conduct and Student Disciplinary Procedures can be found at: http://students.asu.edu/srr/code Staff and Faculty Violations may result in disciplinary action, up to and including termination for staff and faculty (Appendixes E, F, G, and H). The Office of Equity and Inclusion (OEI) is available to investigate and resolve allegations of unlawful discrimination or harassment in violation of ACD 401 (Prohibition Against Discrimination, Harassment and Retaliation, Appendix D), including all forms of sexual misconduct involving faculty, staff, and other ASU affiliates. All complaints of such conduct are taken seriously and appropriate action will be taken to hold violators accountable and to prevent any recurrence. The employee grievance process is fully explained at the ASU Human Resources Web page and in ASU Policy ACD 509-01. Mediation services are available to all employees through the ASU Ombudspersons Committee. ARIZONA STATE UNIVERSITY POLICY ON SUBSTANCE ABUSE ASU’s goal is to provide a drug-free environment for all university students and employees. To achieve this goal, ASU prohibits the unlawful use, possession, production, manufacture, and distribution of alcohol and other drugs and controlled substances. [Policies SSM 106-03, SPP 315, ACD 119, ACD 122,] ASU Police enforces Arizona’s laws against underage drinking, public consumption, and furnishing alcohol to underage individuals. The Arizona Medical Marijuana Act (AMMA) (Arizona Department of Health Services, A.R.S. § 36-2801) was implemented in 2010 and tightly regulates the Arizona medical marijuana industry. However, possessing and/or using marijuana on ASU property (including residence halls), even while in possession of a medical marijuana card, is still illegal under A.R.S. § 15108.A and persons may be criminally charged. Arizona has some of the toughest drug laws in the country. Illegal possession of marijuana or drug paraphernalia is a felony which may be punishable by a minimum fine of $750, and incarceration for a minimum of 6 months. Additionally, DUI or driving while impaired by alcohol, prescription medication (including medical marijuana), over the counter medication, and illegal drugs is a crime! Be smart, don’t drive under the influence. In addition to Arizona state law, federal law has jurisdiction in Arizona and supersedes state law. Federal law is enforced by federal law enforcement agencies. Persons who violate federal law can be criminally responsible for those actions either in addition to state law violations or in lieu of state law violations. ASU provides honest and factual information through organized programs in an effort to assist individuals to make decisions regarding the use of alcohol and other drugs. Information regarding the health risks associated with the use of alcohol and other drugs, drug awareness programs, and drug education and assessment programs are available to employees and students through ASU Wellness, ASU Health Services, the Employee Assistance Office, and ASU Counseling Services. 42 Alcohol and other drug education aimed at preventing underage and high risk drinking and drug abuse is provided by ASU Wellness. Classes and presentations can be found in Appendix A. ASU Police partners with University Housing staff to present annual alcohol and drug awareness training for students living on campus. The format may be a presentation involving “Beer Goggles,” an in-hall event designed to provide an alternative to drinking alcohol, discussions of myths surrounding drinking, legal penalties for violating state liquor laws, and administrative penalties of the Student Code of Conduct. Copies of substance abuse policies are available from the Office of the Senior Vice President for Educational Outreach and Student Services (480) 965-2200. Detailed information regarding possession, use, and distribution of drugs and alcohol can be viewed at: https://students.asu.edu/wellness/drugs It is a violation of university policy for employees to possess, consume, or be under the influence of alcohol while on duty (SPP 801). Employees found to be in violation of substance abuse policies (including student employees if the circumstances warrant) may be subject to corrective action up to and including dismissal from employment, under applicable university policies. Legal Sanctions Anyone who violates local, state, or federal law regarding alcohol or other drugs, including the illegal possession of drug paraphernalia, or who otherwise engages in illegal conduct is subject to prosecution and punishment by criminal and civil authorities, in addition to disciplinary or administrative sanctions issued by the university. (A schedule of substances and sanctions under federal law is available at http://www.dea.gov/druginfo/ftp3.shtml.)

The data relates to all reported crimes occurring on any ASU campus including residence halls, any non-campus building or property owned by the university, or any public property within any campus or immediately adjacent to any campus. Also included are crimes reported to ASU Police by its own officers, the local law enforcement agencies having primary jurisdiction, and other university personnel who have significant responsibility for student and campus activities. Crimes which have not been reported to the aforementioned agencies are not reflected in these tables. For this reason, everyone is urged to report all crimes to ASU Police or the law enforcement agency where the crime occurred. The statistics for drug, liquor law, and weapons violations relate to actual criminal offenses occurring on campus property. If rape, fondling, incest, or statutory rape occurs in the same incident as a murder ASU will record both the sex offense and the murder in its statistics. Incidents and arrests occurring in Residential facilities are duplicated in the On Campus totals and are not in addition to them. For stalking, ASU records a crime statistic for each and every year in which the course of conduct is reported to a local policy agency or a campus security authority. ASU also records each report of stalking as occurring only at the first location within ASU’s Clery geography in which a perpetrator engaged in the stalking course of conduct or a victim first became aware of stalking. ASU currently has a variety of policies and procedures relating to campus security, and it expressly reserves the right to modify them or to adopt additional policies or procedures at any time without notice. Information on the definitions of crimes and/or the campus property referenced in the statistics may be obtained from ASU Police. Violations Referred for Disciplinary Action - are the result of alleged criminal offenses, which did not result in arrest, but were referred to other responsible university officials for administrative investigation and possible disciplinary action. 51 Unfounded Crimes Pursuant to the Violence Against Women Reauthorization Act regulations, an institution may withhold, or subsequently remove, a reported crime from its crime statistics in the rare situation where sworn or commissioned law enforcement personnel have fully investigated the reported crime and, based on the results of this full investigation and evidence, have made a formal determination that the crime report is false or baseless and therefore “unfounded.” Only sworn or commissioned law enforcement personnel may “unfound” a crime report. The recovery of stolen property, the low value of stolen property, refusal of the victim to cooperate with the prosecution, and the failure to make an arrest do not “unfound” a crime report.

Enforcement of this Student Code of Conduct is subject to applicable law, including constitutional protections for speech, association and the press. 2. The Presidents are authorized to enforce the Student Code of Conduct. 3. Actions under the Student Code of Conduct are administrative and not criminal in nature. Therefore, a student can be found responsible under the Student Code of Conduct even if the underlying conduct would not also constitute a criminal offense, and even if a prosecutor has determined not to prosecute as a criminal matter or the student has been found not guilty in a criminal proceeding. 4. For purposes of interpreting words and phrases not otherwise defined in the Student Code of Conduct, every day and common usages and understanding shall apply, and external sources may be consulted for guidance. 5. Violators may be accountable to both civil and criminal authorities and to the university for acts of misconduct that constitute violations of the Student Code of Conduct. At the discretion of university officials, disciplinary action at the university may proceed before, during, or after other proceedings. Sanctions may be imposed for acts of misconduct that occur on university property or at any universitysponsored activity. As further prescribed in these rules, off-campus conduct may also be subject to discipline. With respect to student organizations, and their members, university jurisdiction extends to premises used or controlled by the organizations on or off campus.

The aim of education is the intellectual, personal, social, and ethical development of the individual. The educational process is ideally conducted in an environment that encourages reasoned discourse, intellectual honesty, openness to constructive change, and respect for the rights of all individuals. Self -discipline and a respect for the rights of others in the university community are necessary for the fulfillment of such goals. The Student Code of Conduct is designed to promote this environment at each of the state universities. 2. The Student Code of Conduct sets forth the standards of conduct expected of students who choose to join the university community. 3. Students who violate these standards will be subject to disciplinary sanctions in order to promote their own personal development, to protect the university community, and to maintain order and stability on campus. Scope 1. The adoption of the Student Code of Conduct does not prohibit any university or the Board from adopting or maintaining additional rules to govern the conduct of students. Allegations of misconduct brought under the Student Code of Conduct may be combined with allegations arising under other university or Board rules. 2. Each university may adopt policies and procedures for reviewing allegations of academic dishonesty. 3. The Student Code of Conduct applies to individual students and to student organizations. 4. Students and student organizations are also subject to the following rules: a. Rules adopted by each university to govern the control of vehicles and other modes of transportation on university property B2 Appendix B Policy Number: 5-308 Policy Name: Student Code of Conduct Policy Revision Dates: 6/15, 11/14, 06/12, 04-2011, 9/2009, 8/2008, 6/00 D.

Rules governing the maintenance of public order e. Rules governing the conduct of student athletes f. Rules governing the use of university communication and computing resources, and g. Such other rules as may be adopted by the Board, or the universities in furtherance of university and educational goals. Student Organizations 1. Student organizations may be charged with violations of the Student Code of Conduct to the same extent as students. 2. Student organizations, as well as their members and other students, may also be held collectively and/or individually responsible for violations including but not limited to misconduct that occurs: (a) on university property; (b) on premises used or controlled by the organization; (c) at university-sponsored activities; or (d) in violation of university hazing policies. 3. The officers or leaders of a student organization may be held collectively and/or individually responsible when such violations are committed by persons associated with the organization who have received consent or encouragement from the organization's officers or leaders or if those officers or leaders knew or should have known that such violations were being or would be committed. 4. The officers or leaders of a student organization may be directed to take action designed to prevent or end such violations by the organization or by any persons associated with the organization. Failure to comply with a directive may be considered a violation of the Student Code of Conduct, both by the officers or leaders of the organization and by the organization.

Consent may never be given by a person who is: incapacitated (by drugs, alcohol or otherwise), unconscious, asleep, or otherwise physically or mentally unable to make informed, rational judgments.

B15 Appendix C Student Disciplinary Procedures These grievance procedures govern Student Code of Conduct violations, except those involving academic integrity. “Sexual misconduct” includes the definition of ABOR policy 5-308 (E) (17) as well as any code violations related to domestic or dating violence. The term “parties” refers to the Dean of Students and the student charged with misconduct. In sexual misconduct matters or matters involving violence, the person(s) against whom the alleged misconduct was committed also has the opportunity to participate as a party. These procedures provide a fair and impartial administrative process. Consistent with ABOR 5-308(5), “a student can be found responsible under the Student Code of Conduct even if the underlying conduct would not also constitute a criminal offense, and even if a prosecutor has determined not to prosecute as a criminal matter or the student has been found guilty in a criminal proceeding.” The responsibilities of the Senior Vice President for Educational Outreach and Student Services under this policy may be performed by a designee. A. Initiation of Investigation 1. The Dean of Students may initiate an investigation based on receipt of information from any source that a student may have violated the Student Code of Conduct. 2. Where the alleged misconduct is related to discrimination or harassment, the Dean of Students will inform the Office of Equity and Inclusion, and in sexual misconduct cases, the Title IX Coordinator. 3. The Dean of Students will provide the parties with written information on supportive services available at the university and in the community. B. Interim Action 1. The Dean of Students may restrict or suspend a student for an interim period pending a disciplinary proceeding if the Dean is aware of information that supports a misconduct allegation and believes that the student poses a threat of harm or substantial disruption. 2. The decision to restrict or suspend a student for an interim period and the information upon which the information is based will be communicated in writing to all parties. 3. A student who is restricted from campus or suspended for an interim period may request an opportunity to provide Appendix C information to contest the restriction or interim suspension no later than five (5) business days following the effective date of the interim action. Based on information provided, the Dean of Students will determine whether the restriction or suspension should remain in place. The parties shall have an equal opportunity to provide information relevant to the restriction or interim suspension. 4. The interim action will remain in effect until a final decision has been made on the pending charges or until the Dean of Students believes that the reasons for imposing the interim action no longer exist. 5. The Dean of Students may impose other forms of interim action, such as immediate removal from university housing or exclusion from one or more classes or other specific locations. C. Investigation 1. If the Dean of Students believes that there is a sufficient basis to believe that a violation of the Student Code of Conduct may have occurred the Dean will notify the student in writing of the alleged violation and initiate the investigative process. 2. Members of the university community will be expected to comply with any request or directive issued by the Dean of Students in connection with an inquiry or investigation. 3. All parties will be given timely notice of meetings taking place as well as access to information that will be used during the disciplinary meetings as permissible under the Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act (FERPA). 4. During the investigation, the Dean of Students will provide all parties the following: a. an explanation of the charges which have been made b. a summary of the information gathered c. a reasonable opportunity for the student to reflect upon and respond on his/her own behalf to the charges and d. An explanation of the applicable disciplinary procedures, including the parties’ right to request a hearing before a University Hearing Board if suspension, expulsion, or degree revocation is imposed. 5. Before concluding the investigation, and upon request, the Dean of Students will provide the parties with an opportunity to respond to all investigative materials. 6. Students may accept responsibility for Student Code of Conduct violations and waive their rights to procedures provided by this policy. A student who fails to attend the meeting with the Dean of Students will forfeit the right to respond to the alleged violation, unless the student can demonstrate that an extraordinary circumstance prevented his/her appearance. If the student fails to attend the meeting, the Dean may proceed as described in paragraph D of this subsection. Appendix C D. Determination and Appeal 1. The Dean of Students will determine whether it is more likely than not that a violation of the Student Code of Conduct has occurred and, if so, the appropriate disciplinary sanction to apply. In determining the sanction, the Dean will consider any mitigating or aggravating factors, including any prior violations of the Student Code of Conduct. In sexual misconduct cases, this determination shall be made within sixty (60) days. If a determination cannot be made within sixty (60) days the Dean shall document the reasons. 2. The Dean of Students will provide the parties a written decision within five (5) business days. When feasible, this information will also be communicated in a face-to-face meeting. 3. The written decision will include a statement of the charges, the determination, and the sanction to be imposed, if any. This decision is final, unless a party requests a hearing to review a decision to suspend, expel, or revoke a degree. The effective date of a suspension (except for interim suspension) or expulsion may be no sooner than five (5) business days following the date of the notice. 4. If the sanction imposed includes either expulsion, suspension, or degree revocation, the student (and in sexual misconduct cases, the complainant) will be informed of the right to request a hearing before a University Hearing Board by filing a written request with the Dean of Students no later than five (5) business days following the date of the notice. 5. The filing of a timely written request for a hearing will suspend the imposition of the disciplinary sanction (except for interim suspension) pending the outcome of the hearing. A student who requests a hearing of his/her sanction of suspension or expulsion will not be permitted to graduate until the hearing process has been concluded. If the sanction is degree revocation, the university may refuse to release an official transcript until the hearing process has been concluded. If there is no hearing request, then the Dean of Students’ decision is final and effective immediately. E. Review by University Hearing Board 1. Purpose of the Hearing Board The Hearing Board is the body that conducts hearings concerning suspensions, expulsions, and degree revocations. It is advisory and provides a recommendation to the Senior Vice President for Educational Outreach and Student Services who will make the final decision. 2. Composition of the Hearing Board a. The Hearing Board will be comprised of three members. One member must be a student and one of the other members will act as Hearing Board Chair. b. Each Hearing Board member shall at a minimum receive annual training on the issues related to dating violence, domestic violence, sexual assault and stalking and how to conduct an investigation and hearing process that protects the safety of victims and promotes accountability. 3. Pre-Hearing Procedures a. The Hearing Board members will be notified in writing of their selection. b. The Hearing Board Chair shall set a hearing date no later than (90) calendar Appendix C days after receipt of the request for hearing. c. The Hearing Board Chair will prepare and send a written notice of the hearing to the parties no less than twenty calendar (20) days before the date set for the hearing. The notice will be directed to the student’s ASU e-mail address.

Only the Hearing Board and its legal advisor, if any, may be present during the deliberations. 2. Based solely upon the information presented, the Hearing Board will formulate a recommendation to the Senior Vice President for Educational Outreach and Appendix C Student Services as to whether the student more likely than not violated the Student Code of Conduct and the appropriate sanction. Recommendations must be supported by a simple majority of the board. 3. The Hearing Board Chair will provide a written recommendation to the student, the Dean of Students, and the Senior Vice President for Educational Outreach and Student Services no later than three (3) business days following the conclusion of the hearing.

The written decision shall be issued no later than twenty (20) business days following receipt of the Hearing Board’s recommendation, except when it becomes necessary to conduct further investigation or to remand the matter to the Hearing Board. In those cases the written decision will be transmitted no later than twenty business days following completion of the investigation or the Hearing Board’s subsequent recommendation. If the Senior Vice President for Educational Outreach and Student Services does not accept the Hearing Board’s recommendation, the Senior Vice President will explain any variance from the recommendation in the final decision. Copies of the written decision will be promptly transmitted to the student and Dean of Students (and in sexual misconduct cases, the complainant and the Title IX Coordinator). The decision of the Senior Vice President for Educational Outreach and Student Services is a final decision from the date it is issued, unless a timely written request for review or rehearing as described in paragraph H is received by the Senior Vice President. The letter from the Senior Vice President will also provide notice to the parties of the right to seek judicial review pursuant to A.R.S. §12-904. H. Request for Review or Rehearing 1. A party who is dissatisfied with the decision reached by the Senior Vice President for Educational Outreach and Student Services may request a review or rehearing by filing a written request with the Senior Vice President and sending a copy to all parties within fifteen (15) business days after the decision is issued. Any party may file a written response to the request within five (5) business days of the request. 2. A review or rehearing is not an appeal; it is an opportunity to make the decision-maker aware of irregularities or illegalities in the proceedings or of significant new evidence that could not have been provided to the Hearing Board for consideration before its decision. The request may only be based on one or more of the following grounds: a. irregularities in the proceedings, including but not limited to any abuse of discretion or misconduct by the Hearing Board or by the Dean of Students, which has deprived the opportunity for a fair and impartial disciplinary process Appendix C b. newly discovered material evidence which could not have been presented during the factfinding or hearing process c. excessive severity of the sanction or d. the decision is not reasonably justified by the evidence or is contrary to law. 3. Following receipt of a request for review or rehearing, the Senior Vice President for Educational Outreach and Student Services will first determine whether the request sets forth a proper ground for review or rehearing and then will make whatever review is deemed necessary. 4. The Senior Vice President for Educational Outreach and Student Services will provide a written response to the request for review or rehearing within fifteen (15) business days of receipt of the request. The response shall be sent to the student and the Dean of Students. The Senior Vice President may uphold or modify the previous decision or grant a rehearing on the issues raised by the request. The decision of the Senior Vice President is final. Last updated July 1, 2016. C8 Appendix D Academic Affairs Manual (ACD) Effective: 7/1/1978 Revised: 5/23/2016 ACD 401: Prohibition Against Discrimination, Harassment, and Retaliation Purpose To express the university’s policy on discrimination, harassment, and retaliation Sources Arizona Board of Regents Policy Manual - 1–119 Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 (Pub.L. 88-352) as amended, 42 U.S.C. §2000e Title IX, U.S. Education Amendments Act of 1972 (Pub.L. 92-318), 20 U.S.C. §§1681-1688 Department of Education Dear Colleague Letter dated April 4, 2011; Department of Education Questions and Answers on Title IX and Sexual Violence The Clery Act, 20 U.S.C. §1092(f) as amended Arizona Revised Statutes Applicability All ASU employees, students, volunteers, contractors and agents; all ASU educational programs, activities, opportunities and benefits; all persons participating in or accessing ASU-sponsored programs and activities. Policy Arizona State University is committed to providing an environment free of discrimination, harassment, or retaliation for the entire university community, including all students, faculty members, staff employees, and guests. ASU expressly prohibits discrimination, harassment, and retaliation by employees, students, contractors, or agents of the university based on any protected status: race, color, religion, sex, national origin, age, disability, veteran status, sexual orientation, gender identity, and genetic information. D1 Appendix D Inappropriate conduct need not rise to the level of a violation of federal or state law to constitute a violation of this policy and to warrant disciplinary action/sanctions. All individuals identified in the Applicability section of this policy are responsible for participating in and assisting with creating and maintaining an environment at ASU free from all forms of prohibited discrimination, including harassment and retaliation. All individuals identified in the Applicability section of this policy are required to cooperate with any investigation of allegations of violations of this policy. Providing false or misleading information or failure to cooperate may result in disciplinary action. Required Reporting Unless a person is restricted by law from doing so, any employee who is informed of or has a reasonable basis to believe that sexual harassment has occurred, shall immediately report all information regarding the occurrence(s) to the Office of Equity and Inclusion/Title IX Coordinator. Failure to report and/or inaction may be cause for disciplinary action. If an individual wishes to have a confidential conversation about an allegation of sexual harassment, that individual can do so by seeking an appointment with a licensed counselor or health care professional. The university provides such services at the Health Services, Employee Assistance Office, or ASU Counseling Services located on each campus. Also, consistent with state law, the ASU Police Department Victim's Advocate is a person with whom an individual can hold a confidential conversation about an allegation of sexual violence, including sexual assault. Additionally, any individual has the right to contact local law enforcement to file a criminal report. A supervisor, manager, or administrator who is informed of or has a reasonable basis to believe that violations of this policy, other than sexual harassment, have occurred shall promptly report it to the Office of Equity and Inclusion. Failure to report or supervisory inaction may be cause for disciplinary action. Anyone who believes that he or she has been subjected to discrimination, harassment, or retaliation in violation of this policy, or who believes that this policy has been violated, should report the matter immediately to the Office of Equity and Inclusion. Anonymity If an individual wishes to remain anonymous, that individual can make a report to the ASU Hotline at 877/786–3385. If an individual requests anonymity after a report is filed, the Office of Equity and Inclusion/Title IX Coordinator will take into account the request, the due process rights of all parties involved, the severity of the alleged harassment, and the potential risk of a hostile environment for others in the community in order to determine whether the request can be honored. The requesting party will be advised of the determination. Other Policy Violations Because the university has a paramount interest in protecting the well being of its community and remedying discrimination, harassment, and retaliation, any other policy violation (e.g. alcohol or drug use on campus, or underage use) will be considered, if necessary, separately from the allegations of misconduct under this policy. Procedures The exclusive procedure and protocols for the investigation of any claims of violations of ACD 401 by students are handled, consistent with this policy, in accordance with the Arizona Board of Regents (ABOR) Student Code of Conduct (SSM 104–01) and related procedures, located on the Sexual Violence Awareness and Response, Policies and Procedures Web page. These procedures provide for prompt and equitable methods of investigation and resolution to stop discrimination, remedy any harm, and prevent its recurrence. D2 Appendix D The exclusive procedures and protocols for the investigation of all claims of violations of ACD 401 by employees are set forth in P20. These procedures provide for prompt and equitable methods of investigation and resolution to stop discrimination, remedy any harm, and prevent its recurrence. Unless specifically and explicitly excepted by ABOR policy, these procedures and protocols shall be the exclusive process for reviewing claims of violations of ACD 401. If a deviation from these procedures is determined to be necessary for a particular case, that deviation shall not invalidate the findings of any investigation. Sanctions The university will take interim measures, designed to support and protect individuals and the university community, at any time. Such interim measures might include: restrictions on contact, class or work schedule alterations, leaves of absence, increased safety measures, student housing changes, or course/class academic adjustments. If it is ultimately determined that this policy has been violated, then these measures may also become part of any permanent sanction/discipline against the violator. If, by the preponderance of the evidence, a violation of this policy is found to have occurred by an employee or student, then disciplinary action(s) can be taken; such disciplinary action(s) may include termination for employees or suspension or expulsion for students. Violations of this policy by persons who are not employees or students of the university may be subject to appropriate sanctions as provided for under law or policy. The filing of a complaint or charge by an individual with any outside agency, such as the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission or the Office of Civil Rights, will not affect any ASU investigation concerning the same or similar events. Definitions Discrimination Discrimination is defined under applicable federal and state law. In general, unlawful discrimination means failing to treat people equally based, at least in part, on status that is protected under applicable law or policy. Protected status includes race, color, religion, sex, national origin, age, disability, veteran status, sexual orientation, gender identity, and genetic information. Harassment Harassment is a specific form of discrimination. It is unwelcome behavior, based on a protected status, which is sufficiently severe or pervasive as to create an intimidating, hostile, or offensive environment for academic pursuits, employment, or participation in university-sponsored programs or activities. Sexual Harassment Sexual harassment is harassment, whether between individuals of the same or different sex, which includes unwelcome behavior or conduct of a sexual nature (including unwelcome sexual activity) that is made, either explicitly or implicitly, a condition of an individual’s education, employment, or participation in university-sponsored programs or activities or the submission to or rejection of such behavior or conduct is a factor in decisions affecting that individual’s education, employment, or participation in universitysponsored programs or activities. Sexual harassment is also unwelcome behavior or conduct of a sexual nature (including unwelcome sexual advances or activity), which is sufficiently severe or pervasive as to create an intimidating, hostile, or offensive environment for academic pursuits, employment, or participation in university-sponsored programs or activities. Sexual Violence D3 Appendix D Sexual violence includes attempted or actual physical sexual acts perpetrated against a person’s will or where a person is incapable of giving consent due to the use of drugs or alcohol, due to an intellectual or other disability, or due to age is also a form of sexual harassment. This can include rape, sexual assault, sexual battery, sexual coercion, domestic and dating violence, and stalking. Retaliation Retaliation occurs when an adverse action (e.g., termination, denial of promotion, refusal to hire, unjustified discipline or evaluation, etc.) is taken against an individual for complying with this policy, opposing conduct reasonably believed to constitute a violation of this policy, filing a report under this policy, seeking an accommodation under this policy, or participating in any manner in an investigation or proceedings related to this policy. Adverse actions that are reasonably likely to deter a complaining individual or others from engaging in protected activity are prohibited. Report Allegation(s) of a violation of this policy that is/are made to any manager, supervisor, administrator, or the Office of Equity and Inclusion or the Dean of Students, Office of Student Rights and Responsibilities. Unwelcome Sexual Activity Engaging in sexual activity with a person, whom you reasonably should know or do know, has not consented or is incapable of giving consent.   consent in the context of sexual activity means informed and freely given words or actions that indicate a willingness to participate in mutually agreed upon sexual activity consent may not be inferred from: 1. silence, passivity or lack of resistance 2. a current or previous dating or sexual relationship, 3. acceptance or provision of gifts, meals, drinks, or other items or    4. previous consent to sexual activity consent may be withdrawn during sexual activity, consent to one form of consensual sexual activity does not imply consent to any other form of sexual activity consent must not be obtained through physical force, violence, duress, intimidation, coercion, or an express or implied threat of injury consent may never be given by a person who is: incapacitated (by drugs, alcohol or otherwise), unconscious, asleep, or otherwise physically or mentally unable to make informed, rational judgments. The use of alcohol or drugs does not diminish one’s responsibility to obtain consent and does not excuse conduct that violates this policy and  consent cannot be given by someone who, by virtue of age, circumstances or other factors, is deemed by law to be incapable of giving consent.

SPP 815, “Romantic or Sexual Relationships Between Staff/Volunteers and Students” For appropriate grievance procedures for students, see: Student Services Manual—SSM 104–01, “Student Code of Conduct and Student Disciplinary Procedures” Prohibition Against Discrimination, Harassment, and Retaliation: Complaint and Investigation Procedure Effective Date: July 1, 1978 Revised Date: May 29, 2015 All ASU campuses shall follow this process for the investigation and resolution of reports of violations of ASU’s Prohibition Against Discrimination, Harassment, and Retaliation, ACD 401. The purpose of these procedures is (1) to provide all members of the ASU community with a process for making the University aware of potential violations of ACD 401; and (2) to provide assistance and guidance to the Title IX Coordinator and the ASU Office of Equity and Inclusion in carrying out its responsibilities in administering and enforcing Arizona Board of Regents and ASU policies. The University may, from time to time, amend these procedures as necessary. I. Procedures A. Reporting of Violations D5 Appendix D 1. Reports alleging sexual harassment by employees may be made to any employee within the university. All employees, unless precluded by law, are required to immediately disclose any allegation of sexual harassment to the ASU Office of Equity and Inclusion who will coordinate with the Title IX Coordinator. Reports alleging sexual harassment by students may be made to any employee within the university. All employees, unless precluded by law, are required to immediately disclose any allegation of sexual harassment by a student to the Office of Student Rights and Responsibility who will coordinate with the Title IX Coordinator. 2. The Title IX Coordinator shall make a determination on a request for confidentiality, pursuant to ACD 401, within 3 business days of the request. 3. All other reports of violations of ACD 401 may be made to any manager, supervisor, or other administrator. If the person to whom a violation of ACD 401 normally would be reported is the individual accused of any conduct prohibited under ACD 401, reports may be made to another manager, supervisor, or administrator or the Office of Equity and Inclusion. Managers, supervisors, and administrators shall promptly notify the Office of Equity and Inclusion when a report is received. If a student is alleged to have violated ACD 401, a report shall be promptly made to the Office of Student Rights and Responsibilities by the person to whom the report is made. 4. In consultation with the Office of Equity and Inclusion, a supervisor receiving a report of a violation of ACD 401 may take actions needed to establish that there is a reasonable basis to suspect that a violation has occurred in order to confirm the appropriateness of any preliminary evaluation or indicate the need for additional assistance. No department or individual shall enter into any kind of discussion regarding settlement without prior approval from the Office of General Counsel and the Executive Vice President, University Provost or the President. 5. All reports should be made as soon as possible after the alleged violation. Prompt reporting enables the University to investigate the facts, determine the issues and provide an appropriate remedy or action. The ability of the Office of Equity and Inclusion and Title IX Coordinator to investigate complaints could be impacted (e.g. availability of witnesses, preservation of evidence) if a complaint is not filed promptly. 6. Employee relations or collegiality issues shall be addressed through normal supervisory channels and applicable policies. B. Making a Report 1. With the exception of a faculty member making a complaint of discrimination under the terms set forth in Section C below, a report of a potential violation of ACD 401 may be made verbally or in writing but the person to whom the report is made shall document it with as much information as possible. If the report is not made directly to the Office of Equity and Inclusion or the Title IX Coordinator, then the person to whom the report is made shall notify the Office of Equity and Inclusion or Title IX Coordinator of the report. 2. The University shall respond, to the extent possible, to reports of potential violations of ACD 401 made anonymously or by third parties not directly involved in the alleged violation. However, the response to such reports may be limited if information contained in the report cannot be verified. Anonymous or third-party reports of potential violations of ACD 401 may be addressed through an informal resolution process. 3. Reports of violations of ACD 401 are strongly encouraged to be in writing, setting forth as much information as possible, including: (A) The full name and contact information of the reporting or complaining party; (B) The name of the individual(s) alleged to have violated ACD 401; and (C) A clear and concise statement of the facts that constitute the alleged violation of ACD 401, D6 Appendix D including dates and sufficient information to identify any other individuals who may provide information during the course of an investigation. 4. If the Office of Equity and Inclusion determines that the report does not allege possible violations of ACD 401 or that the information provided indicates that further investigation would not result in a finding of a violation of ACD 401, the Office of Equity and Inclusion will, where appropriate, refer the matter to the appropriate unit or department to address any employee relations issues. If such a determination is made the Office of Equity and Inclusion shall notify the reporting individual of the referral and will facilitate contact with the appropriate university representative in the unit or department. Ordinarily, this initial review process will be concluded within 7 business days of the date the complaint was filed. If it is determined that possible violations of ACD 401 have been alleged or that the information provided by the reporting individual indicates that further investigation may result in a finding of violation of ACD 401 then the report will be accepted as a complaint. The Office of Equity and Inclusion and Title IX Coordinator will always consider a report of sexual harassment to be a complaint and initiate an investigation as specified in Section D. C. Faculty Member Complaints of Discrimination 1. Unless the complaint involves sexual harassment, a faculty member who receives an adverse decision concerning his or her promotion, tenure, nonrenewal, suspension without pay or dismissal for just cause may file a written complaint alleging that the adverse decision was a discriminatory action. This complaint must be filed with the Office of the President within ten (10) days of the faculty member’s “receipt of notice” (delivery of written notice of final adverse decision to the last known address by certified return receipt requested mail, deemed received if undeliverable) of the final adverse decision. A faculty member who wishes to report an alleged violation of ACD 401 with respect to any term or condition of employment, other than promotion, tenure, nonrenewal, suspension without pay or dismissal for just cause who does not timely file a complaint with the Office of the President, or who is making a complaint of sexual harassment, must use the procedures specified in Sections A, B, D, E and F herein. 2. Upon receipt of the written complaint of discrimination from the faculty member, the Office of the President will forward the complaint to the Office of Equity and Inclusion to initiate an investigation per the provisions of Section D below. 3. The faculty member and the academic administrator(s) who is alleged to have rendered the adverse employment action on a discriminatory basis will participate in the Informal Resolution Process described in Section E below as an alternate resolution process. This alternate resolution process shall adhere to the timelines specified in ABOR 6-201.M.1.d. If the matter is not resolved through this alternate resolution process, the complaint will be transmitted to the Chair of the Committee on Academic Freedom and Tenure by the Office of Equity and Inclusion. 4. The faculty member’s written complaint of discrimination will be heard by the Committee on Academic Freedom and Tenure in accordance with the hearing procedures specified in ABOR 6-201.M.2. if it is not resolved through the alternate resolution process The president will render a final decision pursuant to the provisions of ABOR 6-201.M.3 and 4. D. Investigative Process 1. Investigations shall be conducted by the Title IX Coordinator, Office of Equity and Inclusion, or by a designee of the Chief Human Resources Officer as appropriate. 2. Notice of investigation will be provided to the parties. All parties will be given the opportunity to provide information and respond. Additional notice may be provided to individuals with a legitimate need to know, including appropriate administrators including Deans, Directors, Academic or Administrative Unit Heads or Vice Presidents, who may have an obligation to D7 Appendix D monitor the environment to ensure that retaliatory action does not occur during or after the investigative process. 3. In cases involving allegations of dating violence, domestic violence, sexual assault, or stalking, the parties will be given timely notice of meetings taking place as well as access to information that will be used during any hearings. Parties may be accompanied by an advisor of their choice to meetings. During the investigation process, the advisor can provide support, guidance, and advice but the advisor is not an active participant in the meeting. If the investigation results in disciplinary action for which there is a hearing process, the right to an advisor shall be as set forth in that hearing process. 4. An investigation may include, as needed, the gathering of information, including interviews with individuals who may have information concerning the allegations as set forth in the report and gathering and review of documents as appropriate. At any time during the investigation, the investigator or the Title IX Coordinator may recommend that interim protections or remedies be provided by appropriate University officials. Failure to comply with the terms of interim protections may be considered a separate violation of ACD 401. The investigation shall be completed as promptly as possible and in most cases, within 60 calendar days for complaints of sexual harassment and within 90 calendar days for all other complaints, of the date the investigation is initiated. If more than time is necessary to complete an investigation, then the investigator shall notify the relevant parties. In the event that there is a simultaneous criminal investigation, the investigator will coordinate with law enforcement and determine what, if any, delay is appropriate. E. Informal Resolution The Office of Equity and Inclusion will determine when informal resolution may be appropriate. The informal resolution process will not be used for complaints of sexual harassment. Individuals making reports of violations of ACD 401 may wish to resolve the matter through an informal process or reach a resolution through alternatives to the investigative process. The goal of an informal resolution is to resolve concerns at the earliest stage possible, with the cooperation of all parties involved. Informal resolution is an option when the parties desire to resolve the situation cooperatively. Means for informal resolution shall be flexible and encompass a full range of possible appropriate outcomes. Informal resolution includes options such as facilitating an agreement between the parties, separating the parties, referring the parties to counseling programs, imposing appropriate remedial action as determined by the University, conducting targeted educational and training programs, and providing remedies for the individual harmed by the violation of ACD 401. Informal resolution efforts, including any mutually agreed upon outcome, shall be documented. If a mutually acceptable solution cannot be reached through the informal resolution process, an investigation through the appropriate office will continue to proceed. F. Reviews of Findings of Violations of ACD 401 1. Upon the completion of the investigation, the investigator shall prepare a written report, including a finding of whether or not a policy violation has occurred. A copy of the written report shall be provided to the University Provost or appropriate vice president or designee for acceptance, rejection or modification of the findings. 2. The University Provost or appropriate vice president or designee shall provide his/her determination to the reporting party, the party accused of violating the policy, the appropriate university administrator, the Office of Equity and Inclusion, and the Title IX Coordinator in cases involving claims of sex discrimination. The determination is final. D8 Appendix D 3. Disciplinary action will be issued under the applicable procedure for the employment classification of the employee who has been found to have violated ACD 401, i.e. for faculty, at ABOR 6-201.J. and L.; for administrators, at ABOR 6-101.H., for academic professional staff, at ABOR 6-302.G. and I., or ACD 508-03; university staff, at SPP 301, SPP, 801, SPP 808; and for classified staff, at SPP 809; and, at SPP 901.
