Supporting Students

Student Rights and Responsibilities

All members of the ����������Ƶ ����������Ƶ, including ����������Ƶ students, have the responsibility to participate in a culture of respect, consent, and safety at ����������Ƶ. If any member of our ����������Ƶ ����������Ƶ is concerned that a ����������Ƶ student’s actions are not in line with these expectations, a Student Support Manager within the OSS can respond to these concerns.

Sexualized and Gender-based Violence

Our Student Support Managers work collaboratively with ��students who have been impacted by sexual and gender-based violence to address experiences, inform ��options, support next steps, and connect to further supports within ����������Ƶ or the Victoria ����������Ƶ, respectful of students’ right to choose the steps that are right for them.

Student Support Managers also offer information and assistance to respondents (those who have caused harm) in non-academic misconduct and sexualized violence cases.��

The OSS provides education and consultation to college faculty and staff to ensure ����������Ƶ employees have the knowledge and tools to participate in a culture of consent and the ability to respond effectively to students who have been impacted by sexualized and gender-based violence.
