Weapons: carrying, possessing, etc. - 0

Drug-abuse violations – 0

The policy concerning possession, use, and sale of alcoholic beverages and illegal drugs is found in our Drug and Alcohol Abuse Prevention program. Legal drugs are considered those with a valid prescription in the name of the person who possesses the drug.

 

As part of our sexual assault program for the Violence Against Women’s Act (VAWA), you will be shown a DVD entitled “Power and Control”, Domestic Violence in America.

 

If a sex offense occurs, go directly to Starke Memorial Hospital. In order to preserve evidence, do not shower, bathe, etc. While at the hospital, the Knox City Police will be notified. You also have the option of notifying an instructor first. The instructor will then assist you in notifying the city police and will accompany you to the hospital if you so desire.

 

Knox Beauty College does not have on-campus counseling for victims of sex offenses. Due to the absence of this service, we suggest you set up counseling with the Porter-Starke Center, located at 1003 Edgewood Dr., Knox. Their number is 772-4040. If you so desire, we will assist you in this matter.

 

As Knox Beauty College does not have housing facilities, it is not possible for us to change your living situation. Also, as Knox Beauty College does not provide transportation or employment, it is not possible for us to change your transportation or employment situations. Should you request it, we may be able to assist you in these changes or in a change of academic situation.

 

If domestic violence, dating violence, sexual assault, or stalking occur, there will be a disciplinary proceeding. Evidence may be presented in the form of photographs, medical verification, or verifiable eye witness testimony. Both the accuser and the accused will be allowed to have others present at the disciplinary proceeding and both shall be informed of the outcome resulting from the proceeding.

 

Following the disciplinary proceeding, a final determination will be made concerning the alleged offense. If it is determined that the accused did in fact perform the alleged offense, the accused will be terminated from Knox Beauty College.

 

The policy for Title IX is available in the most recent school catalog and on our website at www.kbc.edu.
