The University-Wide Committee on Sexual Misconduct (UWC) is an internal disciplinary board available to students, faculty, and staff across the University for complaints of sexual misconduct, as described in the committee’s procedures. The UWC is an accessible, representative, and trained body established to fairly and expeditiously address formal complaints of sexual misconduct. UWC staff members can answer inquiries about procedures and the University’s sexual misconduct policy (203.432.4449). In cases where formal resolution is sought, investigations are conducted by professional, impartial investigators.
The UWC is a separate office from the Title IX Office, and a Deputy Title IX Coordinator can refer you to the UWC for information on filing a formal complaint. You can also visit the UWC website for additional information.
