Welcome

Welcome to the Title IX & Inclusion Education and Prevention website. This page provides updates on events, workshops, presentations, and campaigns happening on campus related to Title IX & Inclusion. Each semester, we host a variety of events focused on maintaining an equitable and diverse campus. Together, we can foster a community of care where all dolphins are free from discrimination and harassment.

Annual Student Training

海角社区CI鈥檚 commitment to the safety of its campus community and a mandate from the 海角社区 requires all students to complete a sexual misconduct prevention training program for each academic year they are enrolled at 海角社区CI.

What is Prevention Education?

We all have the responsibility and the right to make our environment safer and more inclusive. Prevention Education proactively combats discrimination and harassment to create an inclusive environment. Our work is dedicated to supporting and empowering all dolphins through engaging workshops that enhance the skills of healthy relationships and creating a diverse community together, understanding bias, bystander intervention, and fostering inclusivity. For more information about prohibited conduct and affirmative consent:

  • Affirmative Consent is an agreement to engage in sexual activity that is informed, affirmative, conscious, voluntary, and mutual. Affirmative Consent must be given freely and without coercion, force, threats, intimidation, or by taking advantage of another person鈥檚 incapacitation. A way to remember Affirmative Consent is to think of FRIES:

    F- Freely Given

    Consent is given without pressure, manipulation, or under significant influence of drugs or alcohol.

    R - Reversible

    Anyone can change their mind about what they feel like doing, anytime. Even if you鈥檝e done it before, and even if you鈥檙e both naked in bed.

    I - Informed

    You can only consent to something if you have the full story. For example, if someone says they鈥檒l use a condom and then they don鈥檛, there isn鈥檛 full consent.

    E - Enthusiastic 

    When it comes to sex, you should only do stuff you WANT to do, not things that you feel you鈥檙e expected to do.

    S - Specific

    Saying yes to one thing (like going to the bedroom to make out) doesn鈥檛 mean you鈥檝e said yes to others (like having sex).

  • We all have the power to make a difference in our dolphin community. Here at CI, we encourage all members of our community to understand how bias works, and how it can impact those around us. It is important to take steps to acknowledge our biases and work to become more equitable and inclusive.  

    Consider what unconscious biases you might have.

    Recognizing the unconscious biases you may have is the first step to un-doing them. Consider alternative perspectives and viewpoints, talking with trusted peers can help you uncover what your unconscious biases may be.

    Avoid using stereotypes and generalizations.

    Avoid humor which demeans people or communities on the basis of protected status.  

    Intervene in concerning situations.

    When you see something, say something. Speaking out against violence, discrimination, harassment, and hate makes our campus better for everyone. 

    Ask for help when you feel unsafe.

    If you are feeling unsafe or are uncomfortable personally intervening in a concerning situation, we are here to help. For immediate assistance dial 911, or call UPD at 805-437-8444. To report a bias incident or to learn more about resources, call Title IX & Inclusion at 805-437-2077. 

    Stay up to date on campus policies.

    The 海角社区 Non-discrimination policy ensures that every member of our campus community is free from any form of discrimination, harassment, and retaliation. For questions about the policy, please reach out to Title IX & Inclusion at 805-437-2077. 

  • The California State University and the campuses provide training on safe and positive options that may be carried out by an individual or individuals to prevent harm or intervene when there is a risk of dating violence, domestic violence, sexual misconduct/sexual assault, sexual exploitation, or stalking. Bystander intervention includes recognizing situations of potential harm, understanding institutional structures and cultural conditions that facilitate violence, overcoming barriers to intervening, identifying safe and effective intervention options, and taking action to intervene. Information about bystander intervention is included in a variety of prevention, outreach, and awareness programs across the 海角社区. 

    Bystander Education encourages employees and students to:  

    • Notice the Event
    • Interpret the Event as a Problem
    • Assume Personal Responsibility  
    • Learn How to Help 
    • Step Up by utilizing the 鈥4 Ds鈥 

    The 4 D's to Bystander Intervention: 

    Direct

    Directly addressing the situation.  

    Distract

    Making a simple (or elaborate) distraction to diffuse the situation.

    Delegate

    Finding someone else to address the concern.

    Delay

    Checking in with the person after to see if you can do anything to support them.
