Sexual misconduct will not be tolerated at Garrett-Evangelical Theological Seminary. The Seminary prohibits discrimination based on sex in its educational programs and activities. Accordingly, the Seminary urges an individual to make a formal report if that individual is the victim of sexual misconduct, has knowledge of another person being the victim of sexual misconduct, or believes in good faith that he/she has witnessed a possible warning sign of sexual misconduct.

A report of sexual misconduct will be dealt with promptly. Confidentiality will be maintained to the greatest extent possible. Individuals found responsible for violating this policy will be subject to disciplinary action that may include termination, expulsion, suspension, removal from campus, cancellation of contract, other appropriate institutional sanctions, or any other means necessary to address the behavior. Prosecution by civil or criminal authorities may also occur.

If you feel someone has violated the sexual misconduct policy, whether student, employee, or a third party, please contact the Title IX Coordinator or file an electronic complaint, which may be filed anonymously, by CLICKING HERE.
