Based on this policy and the Campus Awareness Security Act of 1990, Ameritas College will report all criminal sexual offenses occurring on campus to the Huntington Police Department.

Ameritas College will not tolerate assault and/or intimidating behavior against any person or group of individuals based on race, gender, sexual orientation, age, national origin, religion, marital status, or disability. Any staff member, faculty, or student found to have committed a sexual offense is subject to immediate disciplinary action, including suspension or dismissal. This policy applies to all students, employees, and third-party vendors of Ameritas College, regardless of sexual orientation or gender identity. The policy contains concrete guidance regarding confidentiality and the ability of the college to maintain confidentiality when sexual misconduct is reported. If disciplinary action is taken, the accuser and the accused are entitled to the same opportunities to have others present during a disciplinary proceeding. The accuser and the accused must be informed of the outcome of any institutional disciplinary proceeding alleging a sex offense.
