A particular situation may invoke one or more Institute policies or processes. These situations will be addressed on a case-by-case basis. The Institute reserves the right to determine the most applicable Policy or process and to utilize that Policy or process. If an individual is charged with policy violations under this Policy and another College policy, the alleged violations may be handled through one resolution process, engaging both the Title IX Coordinator and the other presiding Institute official. In that event, individuals trained in necessary areas for all applicable policies will preside over the hearing or resolution process. In circumstances where there is a conflict between the procedures and/or processes set forth in the Code of Student Conduct, Employee Handbook, and this Policy, the procedures and processes in this Policy will generally govern. A situation that invokes more than one Munson and/or College policy may have allegations divided on the basis of which policy was allegedly violated, with each grouping addressed separately using the grievance process in the pertaining policy.
One or more of the College’s personnel policies or faculty and staff Handbook policies may overlap with this Policy in a particular situation. This Policy applies to any situation where a student is the complainant or respondent. In all other situations, the College reserves the right to apply this Policy or another applicable policy or process. The Institute will apply this Policy to any situation where the Institute determines that Title IX requires the application of this Policy.
