Rogers State University is committed to fostering an environment free from gender-based discrimination and harassment, including sexual assault and all other forms of gender-based misconduct. RSU recognizes its responsibility to increase awareness of such misconduct, prevent its occurrence, support victims, deal fairly and firmly with offenders, and diligently investigate reports of misconduct. In addressing issues of gender-based misconduct, all members of the RSU family must come together to respect and care for one another in a manner consistent with our deeply held academic and community values.

RSU complies with Title IX of the Higher Education Amendments of 1972, which prohibits discrimination on the basis of sex in education programs and activities. This Policy and the accompanying Procedures are intended to ensure a safe and non-discriminatory educational environment and comply with Title IX and other applicable laws.

Anti-Retaliation/Anti-Intimidation Policy:

RSU strictly prohibits retaliation against and intimidation of any person because of his or her reporting of an incident of gender-based misconduct or involvement in RSU’s response. RSU will take strong disciplinary action in response to any retaliation or intimidation. RSU will pursue such discipline through the applicable student conduct policy or other disciplinary process and follow the applicable time frames within such policies or processes.

Rogers State University utilizes ATIXA for our training of Title IX staff.
