Students who are also employees may additionally be subject to staff policies and procedures. An alleged victim may wish to report the incident to the police. It is always the alleged victim's choice as to whether to report an act of sexual misconduct. The identity of the alleged victim will be protected to the fullest extent under the law. Reporting sexual misconduct does not mean the alleged victim has to prosecute.
Time is of the essence when a sexual assault has occurred.
The sooner an assault is reported, the easier it is to collect valuable evidence. However, individuals seeking assistance in connection with sexual misconduct are not obligated to take further action. The examination includes immediate medical attention, collection of evidence, and any necessary medication. Grady Hospital and the Grady Rape Crisis Center are the recommended organizations to administer immediate medical attenti 0ect evidence, and disseminate information pertaining to sexually transmitted diseases, HIV, and pregnancy. The Georgia Tech Student Health Service will provide referral services to students relative to evaluation, treatment, and follow-up.
