Sexual Harassment is:

unwelcome, sexual or gender-based verbal, written, online and/or physical conduct that is,
sufficiently severe, persistent, or pervasive that it has the effect of unreasonably interfering with, denying or limiting someone the ability to participate in or benefit from the System or College’s educational program and/or activities, or work activities, and
the unwelcome behavior is based on power differentials (quid pro quo), the creation of a hostile environment, or retaliation.

Complaint Procedure

MCC can only respond to allegations of misconduct if it is aware of the misconduct. Further, MCC can more effectively investigate the sooner the allegation is brought to its attention. Any employee, student, authorized volunteer, guest or visitor who believes that he or she has been subjected to sexual misconduct, or believes someone else a part of the MCC community is being subjected to sexual misconduct, shall contact:

The Title IX Coordinator when the alleged victim and/or respondent is a student.

The EO Coordinator when the alleged victim and the respondent are a composition of employees, authorized volunteers, guests or visitors.

Anyone can request advice and information about possible ways to proceed and to put the college on notice.
