Daily Crime Logs

Any person may request to inspect the institution’s daily crime log for the most recent 60-day period. The log inspection is free of charge and available during normal business hours.  Portions of the log that are older than 60 days may also be made available within two days and include data from the last seven years.   The log contains all crimes that were reported to the institution that occurred within the institution’s geography and includes the nature of the crime, the date/time it was reported, the date/time it occurred, the general location and the case disposition.

What is Title IX?

Title IX of the Education Amendments of 1972 protects people from sex discrimination in educational programs and activities, including sexual harassment at institutions that received federal financial assistance.

NOTICE OF NON-DISCRIMINATION

 All members of the educational community must be able to work and learn in an atmosphere of mutual respect and trust. Proudly pluralistic and firmly committed to providing equally opportunity for outstanding persons, the Institution strives to build a community in which each person respects the rights of other people to be proud of who and what they are; to live, work, and learn in peace and with dignity; and to have an equal prospect for realizing their full potential as individuals and members of society. This includes having an environment that is free from all forms of harassment and discrimination for everyone, including students, associates, volunteers, applicants, and members of the public. The Institution will take appropriate action to prevent such misconduct and any person who engages in such behavior and for whom the Institution exercises control.

The Institution is committed to maintaining an environment free from harassment and discrimination for everyone. The Institution prohibits discrimination and harassment on the basis of race, religion (all aspects of religious beliefs, observance, or practice, including religious dress or grooming practices), color, disability, sex (including pregnancy, childbirth, breastfeeding or related medical condition), gender identity (including gender identity and gender expression), sexual orientation, national origin (including language use and possession of a driver’s license issued to persons unable to prove their presence in the United States is authorized under federal law), ancestry, citizenship status, uniform service member status, marital status, age, protected medical condition (including cancer, or a record or history of cancer, and genetic characteristics), disability, political activities or affiliations, status as a victim of domestic violence, assault, or stalking, or any other protected status in accordance with all applicable federal, state, and local laws.

Sexual misconduct is a form of sexual harassment, which is a form of discrimination and is prohibited by Title IX of the Education Amendments of 1972. Sexual assault, domestic violence, dating violence and stalking also are prohibited conduct under Title IX, and are additionally defined by the Jeanne Clery Disclosure of Campus Security Policy and Campus Crime Statistics Act, as amended by the Violence Against Women Reauthorization Act of 2013.  These acts, as defined by law are expressly prohibited at ACC.
