Sexual Harassment and Other Sexual Misconduct Incident Report


Do not use this form to report an immediate threat. If you require emergency assistance, call 911.

Submission Instructions: This form may be used by any member of the Ohio University community wishing to file a report, either on your own behalf or on the behalf of another person. University Equity and Civil Rights Compliance (ECRC) will review the information in the report and take the appropriate actions, including making necessary referrals and providing options for support.

Unless you are submitting this form in your role as a mandated reporter, providing your contact information is optional. If you choose not to provide this information, the form will be submitted anonymously. While all reports will be reviewed, please note that submitting this report anonymously will significantly impede the university’s ability to address the incident and, in most cases, the university will be unable to investigate or resolve the incident through the grievance process. If you are a mandated reporter, you must include your contact information.

If you do include contact information, please be aware that a staff member from ECRC will contact you (or the survivor/victim if you are submitting on behalf of someone else) as soon as possible to discuss this matter and provide options for support.

Furthermore, please realize that students listed on this report are afforded certain rights under the Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act (FERPA) which establishes requirements regarding the privacy of student records, including the right to inspect and review this report and any supporting documentation.

By submitting this report, you are stating that all information contained in the report is correct to the best of your knowledge.

More information regarding the Sexual Harassment and Other Sexual Misconduct process may be found on the Equity and Civil Rights Compliance website.
