SUBMITTING A COMPLAINT/REPORT

How to File a Complaint

The University of Northwestern Ohio strives to create and maintain a positive academic and social environment both on-campus and in the community. There are times, however, when members of our community may feel that others have engaged in actions that diminish either the environment or disrespect the individual. In these instances, members of the community have the right to file a complaint with the University.

  1. Deadline for Filing – UNOH encourages the reporting of allegations of sexual harassment as soon as possible, and no later than three hundred (300) days after the last instance of alleged sexual harassment. An individual seeking to report allegations of sexual harassment after this 300-day period expires may submit a written request for a waiver to the appropriate UNOH Title IX Coordinator, setting forth the reason(s) why the individual failed to report the alleged sexual harassment before the 300-day period expired. Delays in reporting may limit, affect, or preclude UNOH’s ability to investigate and respond to a report, provide supportive measures, and consider whether to initiate the grievance process, for reasons including that parties or witnesses may be unavailable or unable to recall details and that evidence may be unavailable or destroyed.
  2. Where to File – Individuals may make complaints by submitting the complaint form available on the UNOH website at: https://www.unoh.edu/title-ix/submit-a-report.html. The completed form may be emailed to titleix@unoh.edu or mailed to Title IX Coordinator, UNOH; 1441 N. Cable Road; Lima, OH 45805.

Students are encouraged to report any suspected violations of this Policy to the Title IX Coordinator for Students, Danielle McClure, at (419) 998-3157, by email at dmcclure@unoh.edu, or in person at the first floor of the 13000 Building, and/or by calling the Office of Safety Services at (419) 998-3167.

Employees are encouraged to report any suspected violations of this Policy to the Title IX Coordinator for Employees, Geri Morris, at (419) 998-3106, by email at geri@unoh.edu, or in person at the first floor of the 1000 Building, and/or by calling the Office of Safety Services at (419) 998-3167.

When making a complaint/report, individuals will be asked to provide details regarding the incident, the parties involved, and potential witnesses. 

  1. Anonymous Complaints – Although anonymous complaints are permitted, doing so may limit UNOH’s ability to investigate and respond to a complaint. Similarly, if a complainant requests that his or her name or identifying information be withheld from the respondent, doing so may limit UNOH’s ability to investigate and respond to the complaint.
