Nondiscrimination Policy
Ross Education does not discriminate on the basis of sex and prohibits sex discrimination in any education program or activity that it operates, as required by Title IX, including in admission and employment.
Title IX Information
Ross Education values civility, dignity, diversity, education, honesty, and safety and is firmly committed to maintaining a campus environment free from all forms of sex discrimination, sex-based harassment, and sexual misconduct.
In furtherance of this commitment, Ross has adopted grievance procedures that provide for the prompt and equitable resolution of complaints made by students, employees, or other individuals who are participating or attempting to participate in its education program or activity, or by the Title IX Coordinator, alleging any action that would be prohibited by Title IX or the Title IX regulations.
Sexual misconduct in any form will not be tolerated and will be dealt with promptly. When an allegation of misconduct is reported, protective and other remedial measures will be used to reasonably ensure such conduct ends, is not repeated, and the effects on the victim and community are remedied, including serious sanctions when a responding party is found to have violated this policy.
The institution uses the preponderance of the evidence (also known as “more likely than not”) as a standard for proof of whether a violation occurred. In campus investigations and grievance procedures, legal terms like “guilt”, “innocence”, and “burden of proof” are not applicable. Ross never assumes a respondent is in violation of its policy. Campus investigations are conducted to take into account the totality of all evidence available from all relevant sources, both inculpatory and exculpatory.
The policies below provide information regarding how an individual can make a report of sex discrimination or sex-based harassment, and how Ross will proceed once it is made aware of any such report.
Title IX Coordinator
Ross has appointed a Title IX Coordinator responsible for implementing the Ross Education Title IX Policies and related procedures. Questions about these policies should be directed to the Title IX Coordinator.
Anyone wishing to make a report relating to sex discrimination or sex-based harassment may do so by reporting the concern to Ross at any time (including during non-business hours) in person, by mail, by telephone or by electronic mail via the contact information below.
