Supportive Measures

Midwestern University will offer and coordinate supportive measures as appropriate for the complainant and/or respondent to restore or preserve that person’s access to the Midwestern University’s education program or activity or provide support during Midwestern University’s Title IX grievance procedures or during the informal resolution process.

The University has counseling services for students who are complainants of or have witnessed an act of sexual misconduct (including sexual assault, sex-based harassment, attempted sexual assault, sexual abuse, dating violence, domestic violence or stalking), as well as for those who have been accused of wrongdoing. Student complainants/respondents of an alleged act of sexual misconduct have options for requesting a change in academic situations and on-campus residence arrangements if such requests are reasonable and available. In addition to seeking assistance from the Title IX Coordinator, students may also seek assistance from the following University personnel or outside resources:
