Student Wellbeing & Welfare
Harassment and Sexual Violence
All members of Keble’s community are expected to treat each other with respect. Harassment and violence of any kind is unacceptable.
Emotional support and information on your options
Any student who has been subject to harassment or violence is very welcome to talk about their experiences with any member of the Welfare Team or with one of the College’s trained Harassment Advisors.
You will be listened to and your experiences will be taken seriously. We will explain the options available to you and support you moving forward.
Information on the College complaints process
Students may also consult the Dean about the process of making a harassment complaint or, where appropriate, about resolving a concern outside of the complaints process.
The College’s Policy and Procedure on Harassment sets out our definition of harassment and the process that students may follow to submit a complaint of harassment to the College. All complaints will be handled sensitively and you will be supported throughout the process.
Support from specialist services
Students should also be aware of other reporting routes and sources of support, including the Sexual Assault Referral Centre (SARC), Thames Valley Police, Oxford Sexual Health Services, and the University’s Sexual Harassment and Violence Support Service.
Information on sources of support can be found below.
