Supporting Students

Student Rights and Responsibilities

All members of the ������Ƶapp community, including ������Ƶapp students, have the responsibility to participate in a culture of respect, consent, and safety at ������Ƶapp. If any member of our ������Ƶapp community is concerned that a ������Ƶapp student’s actions are not in line with these expectations, a Student Support Manager within the OSS can respond to these concerns.

Sexualized and Gender-based Violence

Our Student Support Managers work collaboratively with ��students who have been impacted by sexual and gender-based violence to address experiences, inform ��options, support next steps, and connect to further supports within ������Ƶapp or the Victoria community, respectful of students’ right to choose the steps that are right for them.

Student Support Managers also offer information and assistance to respondents (those who have caused harm) in non-academic misconduct and sexualized violence cases.��

The OSS provides education and consultation to college faculty and staff to ensure ������Ƶapp employees have the knowledge and tools to participate in a culture of consent and the ability to respond effectively to students who have been impacted by sexualized and gender-based violence.
