Sexual Misconduct Policy & Resolution Process

Faculty & Staff Mandatory Reporter Policy

 

Duty to Report

All faculty and staff play a vital role in fostering a  environment at South Georgia Institute (SGI) where sexual misconduct of any kind is not tolerated. SGI is committed to providing education, training, and resources that promote healthy, safe, and respectful relationships within our campus community.

As part of this commitment, all faculty and staff who become aware of incidents involving sexual harassment, sexual assault, dating violence, domestic violence, or stalking are required to promptly notify the Institute.

Faculty and staff are also responsible for informing students of their obligation to report such incidents to the appropriate university officials.

To review the complete Faculty & Staff Mandatory Reporter Policy, please refer to the official SGI policy documentation.
