Student Complaint Form

Title IX of the Education Amendments of 1972 is a federal civil rights law that prohibits discrimination on the basis of sex in education programs and activities. Under Title IX, discrimination on the basis of sex can include sexual harassment or sexual violence, such as rape, sexual assault, sexual battery and sexual coercion. Title IX protects all people regardless of their gender or gender identity from sexual harassment and violence.

When to Report Directly to the Police

Any acts of criminal sexual activity and incidents of sexual violence such as sexual assault, sexual coercion and dating or domestic violence should be reported to the University Police Department (UPD) immediately at (909) 537-7777. For all emergencies, call 9-1-1. The Title IX Coordinator will work with the police on cases which are reported to them. A campus administrative investigation may occur concurrently with a criminal investigation.

If you become aware of a brewing situation, it is better to be proactive and have the threat not fully materialize than to look the other way and have the situation escalate out of control. Do not assume that someone else is taking care of it – you may be the first or only person to notice something of concern.
