Grievance Resolution Policy and Procedures

It is the aim of the university to resolve all complaints, including but not limited to, grade disputes, alleged sexual harassment or any other form of complaint in a manner that is fair and just for all persons involved. The Grievance committee has been established for this purpose and is composed of representatives from faculty, administration and student government. The Dean of Academic Affairs serves as the chair of the Grievance Committee.

All complaints against a faculty member or staff of the university, grade disputes, or requested disciplinary action against a university student must be in writing. When preparing a formal appeal to the Grievance Committee, the following information should be documented and submitted to the chair of the committee:

  1. Nature of the complaint or dispute;
  2. Date the alleged dispute or problem occurred;
  3. Names of the individuals involved; and
  4. Copies of all relevant documents.

All appeals, officially submitted to the Grievance Committee, will be administered as follows:

  1. Date for hearing will be set within 30 calendar days from the date of the written grievance received by the committee, and
  2. Within seven calendar days from the hearing, the Grievance Committee shall render a decision and forward it to the student via register mail. 

Campus Emergency Plan

In case of emergency, it is important to remain calm and to listen for instructions from personnel in charge, whether these are school personnel or an emergency response team. In all emergencies, someone should phone 911; if this is an emergency involving the whole school and is during regular office hours, someone in administration will make the call. If this is a personal emergency, such as a medical emergency, or after hours and the office is closed, the student or a capable friend or acquaintance should make the call to 911.

If you have not had a first aid course, you may want to familiarize yourself now with the first aid
survival guide at the front of the white pages in the phone directory. It addresses a variety of medical emergencies and earthquake issues. When you dial 911, be prepared to tell the operator:

  1. The phone number from which you are calling;
  2. The address (3200 W. Wilshire Blvd. Suite #1205, Los Angeles, CA 90010 – if you are on campus);
  3. Any special directions of how to find the victim (i.e., the twelfth floor library);
  4. Describe the victim’s condition (i.e., unconscious, bleeding, burned, broken bones, etc.);
  5. Describe what happened; how many are injured; what help is being given;
  6. Give your name;
  7. DO NOT HANG UP until the 911 operator tells you; they may have special questions. 

Medical Emergency

All students are encouraged to maintain a medical insurance policy for themselves (and their families, if they are head of household) while studying at Emmanuel University. A first aid kit is kept in the Registrar’s office for minor medical care. Students are encouraged to provide their own first aid supplies as they know their potential medical needs better than anyone. Students are encouraged to visit their own physicians as needed to prevent medical emergencies.

Fire

In case of fire or fire drill on the campus, all persons are to proceed quickly and calmly to the main parking lot from Vermont Ave. towards Wilshire Blvd. (in front of the building).

Crime

While we have experienced very little crime at Emmanuel University, the possibility is still very real. If you are the victim of a violent criminal act, or witness one, phone 911 immediately. Also report any crime to the administration offices at the earliest possible time. Students should use caution after leaving campus at night.
