Return to: Title IX: Table of Contents  

The College is empathetic to the unique struggle of reporting an incident of sexual misconduct. Similarly, going through the grievance procedures as either respondent or complainant can be difficult and the College encourages all involved parties to utilize the resources as detailed below.

 

On-Campus Services

Therefore, upon receipt of a report of sexual misconduct, Goldey-Beacom College will provide written notification to the reported parties about existing assistance with and/or information about obtaining resources and services including counseling, health, mental health, victim advocacy, legal assistance, visa and immigration assistance, student financial aid, and assistance in notifying appropriate local law enforcement.

 

In addition, the College provides a written notification to students and employees about existing assistance with and/or information about obtaining resources and services including counseling, health, mental health, victim advocacy, legal assistance, visa and immigration assistance, student financial aid, and assistance in notifying appropriate local law enforcement each year in the form of the Annual Security Report, which is distributed as described in this document.

 

The College offers assistance in the area of student financial aid. These services can be obtained by contacting the Financial Aid/Advisement Office at (302) 225-6265 or by email at finaid@gbc.edu.
