To Make a Report

Any employee, student, or member of the public who believes that he or she has experienced prohibited conduct or believes that another person has experienced prohibited conduct should immediately report the alleged acts to a Title IX coordinator, the college president, or to another college employee. Any college employee who suspects or receives notice that a student or group of students has or may have experienced prohibited conduct, regardless of when or where the incident occurred, shall immediately notify a Title IX coordinator.

 

The college designates the following persons to coordinate its efforts to comply with Title IX of the Education Amendments of 1972, as amended, and related state and federal laws:

Title IX Coordinator: Dr. Jay M. Kinzer, Vice President for Student Services and Risk Management/Title IX Coordinator, 2501 N. 14th Ave., Dodge City, KS 67801, (620) 227-9204 or jkinzer@dc3.edu.
