Hazing Policy

PURPOSE:
The SFC Hazing Policy purpose is to prohibit hazing in all forms, ensure compliance with the Stop Campus Hazing Act (SCHA) Amendments to the Clery Act and related laws, and promote a safe and respectful campus environment. Hazing undermines the integrity of student life, endangers individuals, and is inconsistent with the mission, vision, and values of the College.

SCOPE AND APPLICABILITY:
This Policy applies to students, faculty, staff, administrators, trustees, recognized organizations/groups and established groups, and third parties on or off-campus (including online), including visitors, alumni, guests, and the agents, representatives, and employees of suppliers and vendors of the College community.

The College’s prohibition on hazing extends to all aspects of its educational programs and activities, including, but not limited to, admissions, employment, academics, and student services.

This Policy was written to follow the requirements of all applicable federal and state laws. If this Policy is inconsistent with those laws, or the laws change before it has been updated, state and federal law supersede this Policy. If any provision of this Policy is found to be invalid, illegal, unconstitutional, or unenforceable, that finding shall not affect or undermine the validity of any other provision.

The College reserves the right to update these policies as needed. We'll always communicate changes to our community in a timely manner.

DISCLOSURES/REPORTING:
Any person may disclose hazing to the College via the Title IX Coordinator in the following ways:

  • Mail: 179 Livingston Street, Brooklyn, NY 11201-9902
  • Telephone: 650-383-4753 ext. 158
  • Electronic mail: [email protected]
  • In person: email the Title IX
  • Coordinator to setup an appointment.
  • Online: https://www.casetracker.app/00016/report-incident 
  • Any other means that results in the Responsible Authority receiving the person’s verbal or written disclosure
     

The disclosing person does not need to be the harmed person and/or a Complainant. All disclosures will be reviewed by the College to identify if the conduct falls within this Policy or other related policies.

An individual may pursue a College response procedure independently of any off-campus processes, such as reporting to law enforcement or pursuing other non-campus-based civil reporting options. The College reserves the right to initiate this process even if law enforcement has declined to do so.
