Formal Complaint
A Complainant may file a Formal Complaint with the Title IX Coordinator requesting that Goldfarb investigate and adjudicate a report of Sexual Harassment in accordance with the provisions of Sections XV and XVII. Provided, however, that at the time the Complainant submits a Formal Complaint, the Complainant must be participating in, or attempting to participate in, one or more of Goldfarb’s education programs or activities.
A Complainant may file a Formal Complaint with the Title IX Coordinator in person, by regular mail, or by email using the contact information specified in Section V above.
No person may submit a Formal Complaint on the Complainant’s behalf.
In any case, including a case where a Complainant elects not to file a Formal Complaint, the Title IX Coordinator may file a Formal Complaint on behalf of Goldfarb if doing so is not clearly unreasonable.
If the Complainant or the Title IX Coordinator files a Formal Complaint, then Goldfarb will commence an investigation as specified in Section XV and proceed to adjudicate the matter as specified in Section XVII.
In a case where the Title IX Coordinator files a Formal Complaint, the Title IX Coordinator will not act as a Complainant or otherwise as a party for purposes of the investigation and adjudication processes specified in Sections XV and XVII.
