The safety and well being of each member of the Whitman Community with regard to this issue of sexual misconduct are of the utmost importance. The Sexual Misconduct Response Network was put in place to serve as a single point of contact for the various resources available to help students understand sexual misconduct, the Sexual Misconduct Policy, and what may happen or what actions you may take if you think you have been involved in an incident of sexual misconduct.

Barbara Maxwell, Associate Dean of Students, serves as the coordinator of the Sexual Misconduct Response Network. The coordinator functions as an advocate and resource for victims/survivors of sexual assault.
