Title IX and Sex Discrimination

Roanoke-Chowan Community College (R-CCC) staff and faculty are here to protect students, employees, and guests.

Roanoke-Chowan Community College does not tolerate discrimination of any kind based on gender, sexual orientation, age, race, religion, or ideology. Sexual harassment is a form of sex discrimination that is prohibited by Title IX. It creates a hostile environment that is inappropriate for an environment conducive to learning and working.  If you feel you are experiencing discrimination or if you have been the victim of sexual harassment or sexual assault, the contacts listed below will be able to guide you and provide important resources.

To whom should I report an incident?

Students may report incidents to the following departments:

  • Dean of Student Services-Title IX Coordinator (Primary Contact)–ext. 267
  • Executive Director of Human Resources-Title IX Coordinator (When the primary contact is absent)–ext. 302
  • Campus Security-(Emergency cases that require immediate attention)-ext. 219

Faculty and Staff should report incidents to the following departments:

Executive Director of Human Resources-Title IX Coordinator (Primary Contact)-ext. 302

Campus Security-(Emergency cases that require immediate attention) – ext. 219

The Executive Director of Human Resources is the primary contact person for faculty and staff. All employees are encouraged to contact human resources to report incidents of harassment, intimidation, assault, or discrimination. In the absence of the Director of Human Resources, the Dean of Student Services is available to meet with faculty or staff regarding issues that may require immediate attention. If there is a situation that requires law enforcement or if there is immediate danger to the individual employee or others, please contact Campus Security.

Report from someone other than the alleged victim:

If an employee or student witnesses actions that may require intervention by R-CCC staff, please report to the Dean of Student Services or Human Resources. In emergency situations, Campus Security is the first line of communication.
