b. Title IX Coordinator Monitoring.

The w88 sports betting app Title IX Coordinator has primary responsibility for coordinating the w88 sports betting app’s efforts to comply with and carry out its responsibilities under this Subsection. The Title IX Coordinator is responsible for monitoring all aspects w88 sports betting app investigation and any interim measures or final remedies to help ensure that:

1. The process is fair and equitable to both the complainant and the respondent;
2. The applicable policies and procedures of NSHE and of the w88 sports betting app are followed; and
3. The interim measures and final remedies are followed.

Complaints of unlawful w88 sports betting app or harassment are taken seriously and will be dealt with promptly, thoroughly, impartially, and equitably. Where unlawful w88 sports betting app or w88 sports betting app is found to have occurred, the NSHE w88 sports betting app or unit where it occurred will act to stop the unlawful w88 sports betting app or harassment, to prevent its recurrence, to remedy its effects, if any, and to discipline those responsible.

The NSHE recognizes that confidentiality is important. However, in some limited circumstances confidentiality cannot be guaranteed. The administrators, faculty or staff responsible for implementing this policy will respect the privacy of individuals reporting or accused of unlawful w88 sports betting app or harassment to the extent reasonably possible and will maintain confidentiality to the extent possible.

Examples of situations where confidentiality cannot be maintained include, but are not limited to, necessary disclosures during an investigation, circumstances where the NSHE is required by law to disclose information (such as in response to legal process), or when an individual is in harm’s way.

a. Confidentiality in Complaints Involving Unlawful w88 sports betting app or Harassment.

In complaints involving unlawful w88 sports betting app or harassment the following applies:

1. Varying Confidentiality Obligations. In situations involving unlawful w88 sports betting app or harassment, individuals are encouraged to talk to somebody about what happened in order for them to receive the support they need. Different individuals at the w88 sports betting app have different abilities to maintain an individual’s confidentiality:
   1. Some are required to maintain near complete confidentiality; talking to them is sometimes called a “privileged communication.”
   2. Other employees w88 sports betting app talk to an individual in confidence, and generally only report to the w88 sports betting app that an incident occurred without revealing any personally identifying information. Disclosures to these employees will not trigger investigation into an incident against the individual’s wishes, except in certain circumstances discussed below.
   3. Some employees are required to report all the details of an incident (including the identities of all involved) to the Title IX Coordinator. A report to these employees (called “officials with authority”) constitutes a report to the w88 sports betting app – and generally obligates the w88 sports betting app to investigate the incident and take appropriate steps to address the situation.

      This policy is intended to make employees, students and others aware of the various reporting and confidential disclosure options available to them so they can make informed choices about where to turn should they want to report an act of w88 sports betting app violence. The institution encourages individuals to talk to someone identified in one or more of these groups.

2. Privileged and Confidential Communications. A complainant or respondent w88 sports betting app wish to consult with professional counselors, pastoral counselors or others. Certain professionals are not required to report incidents unless they have been granted permission:
   1. Professional Counselors. Professional, licensed counselors who provide mental-health counseling to members of the w88 sports betting app community (and including those who act in that role under the supervision of a licensed counselor) are not required to report any information about an incident to the Title IX Coordinator without a complainant’s permission.
   2. Pastoral Counselors. A complainant and/or a respondent may choose to consult with a non-w88 sports betting app pastoral counselor and is encouraged to discuss confidentiality with that individual.
   3. Under Nevada law other professionals who w88 sports betting app maintain confidentiality include lawyers, psychologists, doctors, social workers, and victim’s advocates as defined in NRS 49.2545.
   4. Off-Campus Counselors and Advocates. Off-campus counselors, advocates, and health care providers will also generally maintain confidentiality and will not share information with the w88 sports betting app unless the individual requests the disclosure and signs a consent or waiver form.
3. Complainant Options. A complainant who reports an act of unlawful w88 sports betting app or harassment only to a professional listed above in Subsection 2 of Subsection a of Subsection 5 must understand that, if they want to maintain confidentiality, the institution will be unable to conduct a full investigation into the incident and will likely be unable to pursue disciplinary action against the respondent.

   A complainant who at first requests confidentiality may later decide to file a complaint with the w88 sports betting app or report the incident to local law enforcement, and thus have the incident fully investigated. A complainant shall be assisted in reporting the incident to local law enforcement if the complainant requests such assistance.

   Other Reporting Obligations: While professional counselors may maintain a complainant’s confidentiality vis-à-vis the w88 sports betting app, they may have reporting or other obligations under state law. For example, there may be an obligation to report child abuse, an immediate threat of harm to self or others, or to report in the case of hospitalization for mental illness.

   NSHE Employee Assistance Program providers would follow these guidelines, as would professionals in NSHE w88 sports betting app student counseling and psychological services areas, and professionals in community health clinics that reside on or are associated with NSHE institutions.

b. Reporting to “Officials with Authority².”

1. “Officials with Authority” Defined and Duties. An official with authority” is the institution’s Title IX Coordinator or any official of the institution who has authority to institute corrective measures on behalf of the institution, including the President, Vice Presidents, Provost, Vice Provosts, Human Resources Director, and those designated by the President. When a complainant or other person reports an incident of unlawful w88 sports betting app or harassment to an official with authority, they have the right to expect the institution to take prompt and appropriate steps to investigate what happened and to resolve the matter promptly and equitably.

   An official with authority must report to the Title IX Coordinator all relevant details about the alleged unlawful w88 sports betting app or harassment shared by the reporting individual and that the institution will need to determine what happened – including the name(s) of the complainant, respondent(s) and any witnesses, and any other relevant facts, including the date, time and specific location of the alleged incident. To the extent possible, information reported to an official with authority will be shared only with people responsible for handling the institution’s response to the report. An official with authority should not share information with law enforcement without the complainant’s consent or unless the complainant has also reported the incident to law enforcement.

2. Requesting Confidentiality From the w88 sports betting app: How the w88 sports betting app Will Weigh the Request and Respond.
   1. Request for Confidentiality. If a complainant discloses an incident to an official with authority but wishes to maintain confidentiality or requests that no investigation into a particular incident be conducted or disciplinary action taken, the w88 sports betting app will weigh that request against the w88 sports betting app’s obligation to provide a safe, non- discriminatory environment for everyone, including the complainant, after the official with authority reports the incident to the Title IX Coordinator. If the w88 sports betting app honors the request for confidentiality, a complainant will be informed that the w88 sports betting app’s ability to investigate the incident and pursue disciplinary action against the respondent may be limited.

      There are times when, in order to provide a safe, non- discriminatory environment for all, the w88 sports betting app may not be able to honor a complainant’s request for confidentiality. The w88 sports betting app shall designate an individual to evaluate requests for confidentiality made by a complainant.

   2. Factors to Be Considered. When weighing a complainant’s request for confidentiality or a complainant’s request that no investigation or discipline be pursued, the w88 sports betting app will consider a range of factors, including the following:
      1. The increased risk that the identified respondent will commit additional acts of violence, w88 sports betting app or harassment, such as:
         • whether there have been other misconduct, violence, w88 sports betting app or harassment complaints about the same respondent;
         • whether the respondent has a history of arrests or other records indicating a history of violence, w88 sports betting app or harassment;
         • whether the respondent threatened violence, w88 sports betting app or harassment against the complainant or others;
         • whether the violence, w88 sports betting app or harassment was committed by multiple persons;
         • whether the circumstances w88 sports betting app incident indicate that the behavior was planned by the respondent or others;
         • whether the reported violence, w88 sports betting app or harassment was committed with a weapon;
         • whether the complainant is a minor;
         • whether the institution possesses other means to obtain relevant evidence of the reported violence, w88 sports betting app or harassment (e.g., security cameras or personnel, physical evidence);
         • whether the complainant’s information reveals a pattern of behavior (e.g., illicit use of drugs, alcohol, coercion, intimidation) at a given location or by a particular group;
         • other factors determined by the w88 sports betting app that indicate the respondent may repeat the behavior or that others may be at risk.

           Based on one or more of these factors, the w88 sports betting app may decide to investigate and, if appropriate, pursue disciplinary action even though the complainant requested confidentiality or requested that no investigation or disciplinary action be undertaken. If none of these factors is present, or if any or all of these factors are present to an insufficient degree, the w88 sports betting app will work to respect the complainant’s request for confidentiality.

   3. Actions After Decision to Disclose. If the w88 sports betting app decides that a complainant’s confidentiality cannot be maintained, the w88 sports betting app will inform the complainant in writing or via email prior to starting an investigation and the w88 sports betting app will, to the extent possible, only share information with people responsible for handling the w88 sports betting app’s response. The w88 sports betting app shall inform the respondent that the complainant asked the w88 sports betting app not to take investigative or disciplinary action against the respondent.
   4. The w88 sports betting app will inform any individual involved in the matter that retaliation is prohibited and will take steps to protect such individual(s) from retaliation or harm. Retaliation will not be tolerated. The w88 sports betting app will also:
   5. Determine whether interim measures should be implemented in accordance with Subsection B;
   6. Inform any individual involved in the matter of the right to report a crime to the w88 sports betting app and/or local law enforcement and to have a criminal investigation proceed simultaneously; and
   7. Provide any individual involved in the matter with assistance if they wish to report a crime.
   8. The w88 sports betting app will not require any individual involved in the matter to participate in any investigation or disciplinary proceeding.
   9. Because the institution is under a continuing obligation to address the issue of w88 sports betting app violence institution-wide, reports of w88 sports betting app violence (including non- identifying reports) will also prompt the institution to consider broader remedial action – such as increased monitoring, supervision or security at locations where the reported w88 sports betting app violence occurred; increasing education and prevention efforts, including to targeted population groups; conducting climate assessments/ complainant surveys; and/or revisiting its policies and practices.
   10. Issuance of Timely Warning: If the w88 sports betting app determines that any individual involved in the matter poses a serious and immediate threat to the w88 sports betting app community, police or security services may be called upon to issue a timely warning to the community. Any such warning will not include any information that identifies the complainant.
   11. Reports to Other NSHE Institutions. If an official with authority receives a complaint about unlawful w88 sports betting app or harassment that has occurred at another NSHE institution or to a student or employee of another NSHE institution, the official with authority shall report the information to the institution’s Title IX Coordinator, who shall provide the information to the Title IX Coordinator at the other NSHE institution.
   12. Public Awareness Events – Not Notice to the Institution. Public awareness events such as “Take Back the Night,” the Clothesline Project, candlelight vigils, protests, “survivor speak outs” or other forums in which individuals disclose incidents of unlawful w88 sports betting app or harassment, are not considered notice to the institution of unlawful w88 sports betting app or harassment for purposes of triggering the institution’s obligation to investigate any particular incident(s).
   13. Such events may, however, inform the need for institution-wide education and prevention efforts, and the Institution will provide information about individuals’ rights at these events.m. Disclosures in written assignments – Not Notice to the Institution. If a student makes a disclosure of an incident of unlawful w88 sports betting app or harassment in a written assignment, such disclosure is not considered notice to the institution of unlawful w88 sports betting app or harassment for purposes of triggering the institution’s obligation to investigate any particular incident(s).

²Note: Campus Security Authorities, who are designated by the institutions in accordance with Clery Act requirements, have an independent responsibility to report w88 sports betting app and other crimes (which may be reported anonymously) to campus police.
