Title IX | Anti-Discrimination, Bullying and Harassment
Southern State Community College will not tolerate harassment or related behavior of any kind. It is the policy of the College to maintain a learning and working environment free from bullying, discrimination, sexual harassment or sexual violence. Title IX protects students, employees and third parties with a relationship to the College, whether on or off campus.
Title IX is a comprehensive federal law that prohibits sex-based discrimination in any federally funded education program or activity. This includes all of the College's operations, including employment, and college-sponsored athletics and activities that occur on and off campus.
Title IX prohibits bullying, sex-based discrimination, sexual harassment or violence against employees, applicants, or students on the basis of age, color, disability, national origin, race, religion, sex, sexual orientation, gender identity, maternity status, military and veteran status. This prohibition extends to discrimination or harassment, based on the protected classes, including the creation of an intimidating, hostile or offensive working or learning environment. Sexual misconduct, sexual assault, dating violence, domestic violence and stalking are forms of sexual harassment behaviors prohibited by this policy.
Any person who believes he or she has been a victim of discrimination or harassment is strongly encouraged to pursue relief by reporting the discriminatory or harassing behavior to any of the following:
