9 on Title IX 

1. Our campus has specific policies under Title IX to address sexual misconduct, sexual harassment, domestic violence, and gender discrimination. 
    
2. Students, faculty, and staff can make a report, acquire more information, or ask questions by reaching out to Title IX Coordinator Danielle Strauchler (she/her) at strauchd@newpaltz.edu or Tanhena Pacheco-Dunn (she/her) at pachecot@newpaltz.edu.   
    
3. The role of the Title IX Coordinator includes receiving reports, facilitating trainings, providing support to survivors, and more. 
    
4. Students can report Title IX incidents to following offices: Title IX Coordinator/HRDI, Psychological Counseling Center, Health Center, University Police Department, Department of Residence Life, and more. 
    
5. We have the following resources for survivors: Psychological Counseling Center, Title IX Coordinator, Academic Support, Crime Victim Advocate, University Police, Student Conduct, and more. Students can expect these support measures even if they DON’T want to access a formal process. 
    
6. Affirmative Consent is a knowing, voluntary, and mutual decision among all participants to engage in a sexual activity. 
   
   
7. If someone is incapacitated, they are NOT able to consent to a sexual act. 
    
8. There is a difference between the college disciplinary process and criminal justice system. The college disciplinary process determines if there has been a violation of college policy, while the criminal justice system seeks to determine if there has been a criminal act.
