For Complainants
Information for Student Complainants
Under CalArts Title IX Policy and Sexual Misconduct Policy, you are referred to as a complainant because you have submitted a formal complaint alleging an individual, referred to as the respondent, engaged in prohibited conduct against you, specifically, sexual harassment or sexual assault.
An investigation is part of the administrative process CAlArts uses to determine whether Institute policy has been violated. The investigation is not a legal proceeding, and as a result, a Title IX investigation does not determine guilt or innocence relative to any local, state, or federal law or proceeding.
