- If either you or the alleged perpetrator is a student living in Residence, the College may take immediate steps to protect you and potential witnesses, the College community, or any of its members. For instance, the General Manager, Residence may deem it necessary to provide the you and/or the alleged perpetrator/respondent with alternative housing assignments during an investigation.
