Spring 2019 Course Syllabi

Disabilities and Special Needs: If you have any condition, such as a physical or learning disability, for which you need extra assistance, please inform me immediately. If you have already met with Student Development personnel, please provide me with information regarding your special needs as soon as possible so that appropriate accommodations can be made. (see more below) Title IX MSU faculty members are “mandatory reporters,” which means that once we are apprised of violence or harassment based on sex and gender, we are required to report the incident to the Title IX office on campus, regardless of whether the student wants this information reported or not. It may very well be that you would like the information reported, but you do not know whom to approach about this information, in which case our mandatory reporting requirements will be desirable to you. However, if you just wanted to talk about an incident but do not want it reported, neither you nor I have any choice in this matter, and once divulged, I must report it. This is just to let you know about the kinds of requirements under which we all are operating. Title IX makes it clear that violence and harassment based on sex and gender are Civil Rights offenses subject to accountability and support. If you or someone you know has been harassed on the basis of sex and gender or assaulted, you can find the appropriate resources on/off Minot State University’s campus. These resources include: Lisa Dooley, Title IX Coordinator Memorial Hall, 4th floor, Room 412 701-858-3447 lisa.dooley@minotstateu.edu MSU Counseling (Confidential) Counseling Services Lura Manor-south lower level 701-858-3371 Health Services Lura Manor-south lower level 701- 858-3371 Domestic Violence Crisis Center (Confidential) 24/7 Crisis Line: 701-857-2200 24/7 Rape Crisis Line: 701-857-2500 MSU Campus Safety & Security 701-858-HELP (4357) Minot Police Department 911/701-852-0111
