Current through Register Vol. 24-14, July 15, 2024
Tacoma Community College is an educational institution
				  provided and maintained by the people of the state of Washington. College
				  premises are reserved primarily for educational use including, but not limited
				  to, instruction, research, public assembly of college groups, student
				  activities, and other activities related to the educational mission of the
				  college. The public character of the college does not grant to individuals an
				  unlimited license to engage in activity which limits, interferes with, or
				  otherwise disrupts the normal activities for and to which the college's
				  premises are dedicated. Accordingly, the college is a designated limited public
				  forum opened for the express purposes recited herein and further subject to the
				  time, place, and manner limitations and restrictions set forth in this
				  chapter.
The purpose of the time, place, and manner regulations set
				  forth in this policy is to establish procedures and reasonable controls for the
				  use of college premises for both college and noncollege groups. It is intended
				  to balance the college's responsibility to fulfill its mission as a state
				  educational institution of Washington with the interests of college groups and
				  noncollege groups who are interested in using the campus for purposes of
				  speech, assembly, or expression. The college recognizes that college groups
				  should be accorded the opportunity to utilize college premises to the fullest
				  reasonable extent possible. The college intends to open its facilities to
				  noncol-lege groups to a lesser extent as set forth herein.
It is the policy of Tacoma Community College to support the
				  educational goals of all students regardless of race, creed, color, religion,
				  national origin, sex, age, marital status, sexual orientation, disability, or
				  status as a disabled veteran. The college is committed to protecting the rights
				  and dignity of each individual in the campus community and so will not tolerate
				  discrimination of any kind, at any level.

				attempt to honor complainants' requests for confidentiality but cannot
				guarantee complete confidentiality, and (b) that maintaining confidentiality
				may limit the college's ability to fully respond to the allegations and, that
				(c) retaliation by the respondent and/or others is prohibited. If the
				complainant still insists that his or her name not be disclosed or that the
				college not investigate, the Title IX coordinator or designee will determine
				whether the college can honor the request and at the same time maintain a safe
				and nondiscriminatory environment for all members of the college community,
				including the complainant.
(2)
				Factors to be weighed during this determination may include, but are not
				limited to:
(a)The seriousness of the alleged
				sexual violence;

				violence was perpetrated with a weapon;
(d) Whether the respondent has a history of
				committing acts of sexual violence or violence or has been the subject of other
				sexual violence complaints;
(e)
				Whether the respondent threatened to commit additional acts of sexual violence
				against the complainant or others; and
(f) Whether relevant evidence can be obtained
				through other means (e.g., security cameras, other witnesses, physical
				evidence).
