Additional Title IX Complaint Information
Title IX: Jurisdiction
The Title IX procedure applies to all CSD students and employees as defined in the Policy when:
- Conduct occurs on property owned, leased, or controlled by the District; and/or
- Conduct occurs off school property, and involves locations, events, or circumstances over which the school exercises substantial control over both the Respondent and the context in which the alleged Prohibited Conduct occurred, including but not limited to off-campus school activities, internships, mentorships, summer sessions, travel abroad, or other affiliated programs.
Title IX: Conflicts of Interest
The Title IX Coordinator, Investigator, and Decision-Maker will be free from conflicts of interest or bias for or against Complainants or Respondents. Such personnel will receive training on how to serve impartially, including avoiding pre-judgment of the facts at issue, conflicts of interest, and bias.
Complainants and Respondents are expected to promptly report any concern(s) regarding a conflict of interest or bias regarding the above-listed personnel to the Title IX Coordinator once they become aware of the conflict of interest or bias. The Coordinator will evaluate the report, and if it is determined that a conflict of interest or bias exists, the District will appoint another individual to serve in the role.
