The New School's defines sexual misconduct as nonconsensual sexual intercourse (defined as sexual assault), sexual contact, or sexual exploitation. If you are forced, coerced, or intimidated to submit to any kind of sex act, including unwanted touching of your or another person鈥檚 intimate body parts, it is sexual assault. If you are asleep, unconscious, or incapacitated by drugs or alcohol, you are considered unable to consent to sexual activity. If someone commits any sex act upon you when you are unable to consent, it is also sexual assault. These behaviors are a serious violation of The New School's policy and are against the law in New York State.聽

Consent involves explicit communications and mutual approval for the act in which the parties are/were involved. A sexual encounter is considered consensual when individuals willingly and knowingly engage in sexual activity. Consent can be revoked at any time for any reason. Consent is active, not passive, and is required regardless of whether the person initiating the act is under the influence of drugs and/or alcohol. Consent must be given for every act and for every time that the act occurs, regardless of a previous history of consensual sexual activity between the parties or other past behaviors with other individual(s). Consent may be initially given but may be withdrawn at any time. When consent is withdrawn or can no longer be given, sexual activity must stop. In order to give effective consent in New York State, one must be of legal age (17 years old).聽

Consent cannot be procured by use of pressure, manipulation, compelling threats, intimidating behavior, substances, and/or force. Consent cannot be given when a person is incapacitated, i.e., when the individual lacks the ability to knowingly choose to participate in sexual activity. Incapacitation may be caused by the lack of consciousness or being asleep, by being involuntarily restrained, or if an individual otherwise cannot consent. Depending on the degree of intoxication, someone under the influence of alcohol, drugs, or other intoxicants may be incapacitated and therefore unable to give consent.聽

3. (2015) 鈥淪exual assault鈥� as defined in 20 U.S.C. 1092(f)(6)(A)(v), 鈥渄ating violence鈥� as defined in 34 U.S.C. 12291(a)(10), 鈥渄omestic violence鈥� as defined in 34 U.S.C. 12291(a)(8), or 鈥渟talking鈥� as defined in 34 U.S.C. 12291(a)(30).

Going to a hospital emergency room does not mean you have to report the crime to the police. You can go to the emergency room and get medical attention/evidence collection and then take some time to think about whether you want to report the crime to the police. The hospital emergency room is required to store the evidence for 30 days. If you do not want medical care from a hospital emergency room, it is still encouraged you seek medical attention. You can see your private medical provider or visit Medical Services, where you may feel more comfortable. Just note that you will not have available all the options stated above, especially evidence collection. Federal law requires forensic exams (evidence collection) be conducted for free regardless of your decision to report the incident to the police or not.聽

It is recommended that you go for medical care at one of the hospitals listed below. These hospitals have rape crisis programs and have trained advocates available 24 hours. The advocates will provide emotional support and information and help with the police reporting process.

As a survivor of sexual violence, you may experience a wide range of emotions. The decision to report the assault and/or seek help is a personal and complex one. It is recommended that you seek support as soon as you are ready. Reactions can vary and may include shock, denial, anxiety, guilt, anger, and self-blame, as well as nightmares, changes in sleeping and eating patterns, flashbacks, and depression. You may want to seek professional, confidential assistance either on campus, at Counseling Services (80 Fifth Avenue, 3rd floor), or off campus, at a .聽

Reporting to the Police

In addition to your right to report incidents of sexual assault to the university, you have the right to pursue criminal prosecution and/or civil litigation. Prompt reporting and a comprehensive medical examination completed at a hospital emergency department within 96 hours of the assault will aid the legal process. You can go to the precinct corresponding to the area where the crime occurred or call the New York Police Department Special Victims Report Line at 646.610.7272. The hotline provides the option of getting some information without having to disclose your name. With that information you can then decide whether to go forward with the reporting process.

Please note: You should never be pressured to file a report. It is your decision to report unless there is an injury by a deadly weapon, when medical staff only are mandated to report the crime to the police. In addition, reporting sexual violence to the police does not obligate you to file criminal charges or pursue other legal action. In the case of sexual violence, however, Student Support and Advocacy is available to provide support throughout this process as needed.

Students who want to talk with a staff person about an incident of sexual violence and maintain strict confidentiality can speak with a confidential staff person at Student Health Services on campus.

However, a Responsible Employee is required to report to the university鈥檚 Title IX Investigator all relevant details about an incident 鈥� including the names of the parties, any witnesses, and any other relevant details (e.g., the date, time, and specific location of the alleged incident) 鈥� that have been disclosed by a student to the Responsible Employee. Responsible Employees fulfill their reporting obligations by reporting such information through the secure online reporting system. Responsible Employees are all university employees who do not serve as medical or counseling professionals.
