Thank you for choosing us to be such and integral part of your career path. We look forward to serving your educational needs and nurturing your professional growth. Dorothy Stevenson Founder -3 - HISTORY Stevenson Academy of Hair Design was founded by Dorothy Mitchell Stevenson, a cosmetology instructor and salon, who simply wanted to “train a few students” to become successful in the field that had been such a blessing in her own life. The Academy’s first location was opened in February 1973 at 2039 Lapeyrouse Street in New Orleans, LA with three students. The school quickly grew and with the help of her daughter and son-in-law, Josulyn and James Williams, her dream of being instrumental in the professional development of well qualified graduates came to fruition. In March 1985, the second school was opened at 401 Opelousas Avenue in Historic Algiers Point to serve the needs of West Bank New Orleans. By the early nineties, the Academy expanded its course offerings with barber-styling and comprised comprehensive entry into the beauty industry including cosmetology, manicuring, esthetics and instructor training as well. In August 2005, the surge waters of Hurricane Katrina submerged the original campus. By December, all operations had moved to the Opelousas Street campus and the Academy welcomed back the remaining student body who had returned to the city. The mission of Stevenson Academy has always been to improve the quality of life for its students and their families through education and entrepreneurship. The vision started with a few students and grew to thousands of successful graduates positively affecting their communities. As we move into the 21st century we hope that in the cultivation of the greatness of our students, they in turn will become integral in the empowerment of others.

Federal Financial Regulations require that students maintain satisfactory progress in order to receive funds from the Title IV Assistance Programs. Definition: At Stevenson Academy of Hair Design, Satisfactory Progress is defined by the following criteria: 1. Theory and Practical Grade Average of 70%. 2. Satisfactory Attendance Progress -- Must complete 67% of scheduled hours of attendance. Grades and attendance will be evaluated in four (4) segments. Each will consist of 300 hours: Segment 1 ......................................... 300 hours Segment 2 ......................................... 600 hours Segment 3 ......................................... 900 hours Segment 4 .......................................1,200 hours All students must meet both the attendance and academic progress requirements. Courses 600 hours or less will be evaluated at least by midpoint of the academic year, or midpoint of the course, whichever comes first. Students meeting minimum requirements at evaluation are considered making satisfactory progress until the next scheduled evaluation. FINANCIAL AID WARNING Students who do not meet the minimum satisfactory progress standards during an official evaluation period shall be placed on Financial Aid Warning. During this period a student shall be considered to be making satisfactory progress until the next official evaluation period. During the Financial Aid Warning period a student continues to be eligible for financial aid (if applicable). There is no warning period granted to Nail Technology students due to the shortened length of the program and due to the limited evaluation periods available. If at the time of the next official evaluation period the student is at or above the progress standards, he or she will be considered to be in satisfactory progress until the next official evaluation period. If the student is below the satisfactory progress standards during that official evaluation, he or she will be ineligible to receive Financial Aid and may be terminated from the program at the discretion of academy management. Students who submit an appeal of their SAP status will be placed on Probation. During periods of probation, a student is considered to be out of satisfactory progress and will not be eligible for financial aid until the next official evaluation period or until he or she has successfully appealed the SAP determination. LOSS OF AID/PROBATION Students that are determined to be below the satisfactory progress standards for a second consecutive official evaluation period shall be ineligible to receive financial aid. Students that appeal their SAP determination may be placed on probation. During periods of probation, a student is considered to be out of satisfactory progress and will not be eligible for financial aid until the next official evaluation period or until he or she has successfully appealed the SAP determination. Students may also be subject to termination from the program at the discretion of academy management. MAXIMUM TIME FRAME To remain eligible for federal funds, students must complete their program within a specified time frame. Course Basic Cosmetology Barber-Styling Instructor Training Esthetic Clock Hours 1500 1500 750 750 - 63 - Maximum Hours 2,250 2,250 1,125 1,125 Manicuring Advance/Brush-Up Alternative Hair Shampoo Assistant 600 300 1000 40 900 450 1500 60 SAP ISSUES RELATED TO EXTERNAL TRANSFERS The Academy does not consider prior performance measures when considering the initial SAP status for a transfer student except as it pertains to the granting of prior credit. In other words, a transfer student is treated as if he or she is a new student with regard to SAP. Upon acceptance the student is deemed to be in SAP until the first available evaluation period, which is based on his or her current enrollment only (contracted hours). All transfer students regardless of the amount of transfer credit are required to maintain satisfactory progress in order to successfully move toward graduation (see maximum timeframe). Such maximum timeframe shall be based on 133% of the transfer student's contracted hours. Maximum timeframe reviews shall take place during official evaluation periods. SAP ISSUES RELATED TO RE-ENROLLMENT OR INTERNAL (SAME COURSE) TRANSFERS Students who withdrew or were terminated and who successfully re-enrolled into the same program and/or internal student transfers will return to the program in the same SAP status in which they left (example: on warning = return on warning, in satisfactory progress = return in progress) until the next evaluation period. Students who left during an initial evaluation period (who did not yet have an evaluation) shall be deemed to be in satisfactory progress until an official evaluation period; treated similar to a student who was on an official leave of absence. Re-enrollment impact of course repetitions – In the event a student re-enrolls into the same program/course and must start at the beginning of a phase/segment of the course, the student must take all tests or exams in that phase/segment (i.e. repeat); the newer score will be used and will impact the student satisfactory progress determination. REINSTATEMENT OF FINANCIAL ELIGIBILITY Financial Aid eligibility is reinstated upon re-establishment of satisfactory progress status. This is accomplished by improving the academic and attendance average to the designed standards as demonstrated by the evaluation period. LEAVE OF ABSENCE - LOA (Training Interruptions) Should it become necessary for a student to interrupt his/her training or leave school for any reason, the student must submit in writing, a request for a leave of absence with the Administrative Office. During an approved leave of absence, the student may not receive Campus Based Funds. A student is allowed two leave of absences which may not exceed 180 days in any 12 month period. A subsequent leave will only be granted in the case of jury duty, military reasons, or circumstances under the Family and Medical Leave Act. A student on an approved (LOA) is considered to be enrolled and in good standing. A LOA will not be considered in calculating Satisfactory Progress attendance requirements. Leave of absence exceeding 180 days for any reason will result in immediate withdrawal. Students who withdraw from school will maintain the same satisfactory progress status at re-entry. If the student returns to school, he/she must satisfy all deficiencies prior to receiving federal financial aid. A student on a LOA will incur no additional charges by the school. Any student failing to return to school the day after the expiration of a LOA will be withdrawn from school on that day and a withdrawal date will be determined based on the school’s refund policy and all refunds will be due 30 days from that date. Veterans Administration Leave of Absence There are no leaves of absence for VA students. A VA student who wishes to take a leave must be terminated. His/her date of attendance is his/her last day of class. A 22-1999b must be completed. COURSE INCOMPLETE, REPEATS, & NON-CREDIT REMEDIAL COURSE Course incomplete, repetitions, and non-credit remedial work have no effect on satisfactory progress standards. - 64 - APPEALS Students who wish to appeal the determination that they are not maintaining satisfactory progress must submit a letter to the school’s administration. The letter should describe any circumstances the student feels deserve further consideration. An appeal decision will be made and the student notified by letter. Financial eligibility is also reinstated to students who win appeal regarding satisfactory progress status. COURSE EVALUATION Each student will be evaluated in theory and practical instruction by the grading scale. Practical evaluation will be graded on a point value system. The point value of (10) denotes yes, the student has met all the competency criteria of the skill, and a point value of (9) denotes no, the student did not meet all the competency criteria of the skill. All students must maintain an overall average of 70% in theory and practical grades. Students who fail to maintain a 70% average will be placed on probation. Each student will be evaluated in the following areas: 1. Completion of Theory Workbooks after each chapter. 2. Completion of State Board Review Book after each chapter. 3. Completion of Required Clinical Experiences. All students that fail to take a test or complete project assignments will be given an assigned period to do make-up work. If make-up work is not completed in the assigned time, the student will receive a failing grade. GRADING SYSTEMS Each student will be evaluated in theory and practical instruction by the following grading scales: Theory Evaluation 90 - 100% -- A Excellent 80 - 89% -- B Good 70 - 79% -- C Satisfactory 0 - 69% -- D Unsatisfactory Practical Evaluation 10 = Yes The student met all competency criteria of the skill 9 = No The student did not meet all competency criteria of the skill CLINIC GRADE All students must complete the minimum number of required clinic experiences prior to graduation. The clinic requirements may be done on mannequin if a client is not available to perform the service.

The regulation applies to any student who withdraws on or after October 7, 2000. 2. The school will determine the date of withdrawal and percentage of payment period or period of enrollment attended by the student. The school will determine the amount of Title IV Aid earned by the student by multiplying the total Title IV Aid for which the student was eligible by percentage of time enrolled. 3. If the amount earned is greater than the amount disbursed then a post withdrawal disbursement must be made if the student is eligible for a “late disbursement” under the cash management rules (34CFR668.164(g)). If the amount of disbursement exceeds the amount earned the Title IV Aid must be returned. Distribute the unearned Title IV Aid back to Title IV Programs. 4. For any Title IV Aid recipient terminating their program of study after entering the institution and before completing at least 60% of the payment period of enrollment, the statutory Return of Title IV Fund Policy will be implemented. This policy will calculate the amount of financial aid funds earned by the student during their enrollment. 5. The last day of attendance will be used in the R2T4 calculation, Stevenson Academy of Hair Design, will calculate the amount of Title IV aid that was earned based on a payment period basis. The institution will determine: The Title IV Aid disbursed or that could have been disbursed. The percentage of Title IV Aid earned by the student. The amount of Title IV aid earned by the student. The total of Title IV Aid to be returned or disbursed by the institution. The amount of unearned Title IV Aid to be returned by the institution. The amount of unearned Title IV Aid to be returned by the student. Institutional refunds will continue to be calculated by the payment period. The student will be obligated for any tuition, fee, books, or equipment not covered by Title IV Funds. Samples of the policy are available in the financial aid office. The date of determination used by the institution for a student who unofficially withdraws will be no more than 14 days after the last day of attendance. Return of funds are due within 30 days of the date of determination. In the event a student fails to return from a leave of absence, all return of Title IV funds will be made within 30 days of the date the student failed to return from the leave of absence.

All you need is a computer with access to the Internet. FAFSA on the Web can be found at www.fafsa.ed.gov So, If I want or need to use a paper form, where can I get one? You can get a paper FAFSA – in English or Spanish – from your local library or high school, the college or career school you plan to attend, or our Federal Student Aid Information Center: Federal Student Aid Information Center PO Box 84 Washington, DC 20044 1-800-4-FED-AID (1-800-433-3243) When can I apply? For 2011-2013 you should apply as soon after January 1, 2011, as possible. Don’t transmit your electronic FAFSA or sign, date, or mail your paper FAFSA before January 1, 2011. If you do any of these things, your application will not be processed, and you will have to reapply. Your eligibility is determined one award year at a time. The results of your 2011-2012 application are good only for the 2011-2012 award year (July 1, 2011 to June 30, 2012, and any summer terms that your school considers par of that award year). After you’ve applied for the first-time, you might be able to apply more easily and quickly in subsequent award years by completing a Renewal FAFSA. With a Renewal FAFSA, you have to fill out only the information that changed from the previous award year. The Renewal FAFSA is also available at FAFSA on the Web. What should I know before I get started? You need to get a PIN. You and parents of dependent students can request one at www.pin.ed.gov. You’ll need a valid Social Security Number (SSN) to apply for federal student aid. We use your SSN to verify your information and locate your records. If you don’t have a valid SSN your application won’t be processed. If you don’t have an SSN yet, you should apply for one at your local Social Security office. You can find out more about applying for an SSN at www.ssa.gov. What does the application ask for? Because the FAFSA asks for your family’s financial information, when you complete the 2011-2012 FAFSA or FAFSA on the Web, you’ll need your parents’ 2010 U.S. income tax return if you are a dependent student. If you filed a return, you’ll need yours, too. Referring to the tax forms makes it easier to answer FAFSA questions, which ask for information from specific lines on the U.S. income tax forms. What is a PIN? Because electronic signatures hold the same legal status as written signatures, students and parents of dependent students applying for aid may sign their FAFSA on the Web applications by using their PINs, allowing the student aid process to be completed totally online. If you are a new applicant and you or your parents do not have a pin be sure to request one at www.pin.ed.gov before you complete the FAFSA. You can request a PIN as early as your senior year in high school. If you are a dependent student, your parents’ financial information must be reported and they must also electronically sign the FAFSA. So make sure your parents also request one ahead of time. If you have questions about the PIN, call 1-800-433-3243. - 74 - How can I find out the status of my application? Any applicant can check his or her application status by going to the FAFSA on the Web site. All filers, electronic and paper, can make corrections to their information on that site as long as they have a PIN. You can request a PIN at www.pin.ed.gov. What happens after my application is processed? After your application information is complete and transmitted or mailed to us, you’ll receive a Student Aid Report (SAR) or SAR Information Acknowledgement in the mail. Your SAR summarizes the information you reported on your FAFSA. Eligibility Criteria Eligibility for Federal Student Aid is determined on the basis of financial need and several other factors. The financial aid administrator at the college or career school you plan to attend will determine your eligibility. A law suspends aid eligibility for student who have been convicted under federal or state law of the sale or possession of drugs. If you have a conviction or convictions for these offenses, call the Federal Student Aid Information Center at 1-800-4-FED-AID (1-800-433-3243) How will I know if I’m eligible for? When your FAFSA is processed, a formula is applied to the information you provided. The formula used to calculate your EFC is established by law and is used to measure your family’s financial strength on the basis of your family’s income and assets. The EFC is used to determine your eligibility for federal student aid. Verification? What is that? Verification is a process we use to make sure that the information applicants report is accurate. This process prevents ineligible students from receiving aid if they report false information, and it ensures that eligible students receive all the aid they are qualified for. What Is A Federal Pell Grant? A Federal Pell Grant, unlike a loan, does not have to be repaid. Pell Grants are awarded only to undergraduate students who have not earned a bachelor’s or professional degree. (A professional degree would include a degree in a field such as pharmacy or dentistry.) For many students, Pell Grants provide a foundation of financial aid to which other aid may be added. How Do I Qualify? To determine if you’re eligible financially, the U.S. Department of Education uses a standard formula, established by Congress, to evaluate the information you report when you apply. The formula produces an Expected Family Contribution (EFC) number. Your student Aid Report (SAR) contains this number and will tell you if you’re eligible. How Much Money Can I Get? Awards for the 2011-2012 award year (July 1, 2011 to June 30, 2012) will depend on program funding. The maximum award for the 2011-2012 award year is $5,550. You can receive only one Pell Grant in an award year. How much you get will depend not only on your EFC but on your cost of attendance,* whether you’re a full-time or part-time student, and whether you attend school for a full academic year* or less. You may not receive Pell Grant funds from more than one school at a time. NOTE: You must reapply for federal aid every year. Also, if you change schools, your aid doesn’t go with you. Check with your new school to find out what steps you must take to continue receiving aid. - 75 - How Will I Be Paid? Your school will credit the Pell Grant funds to your school account The school must tell you in writing when your account will be credited and how much your award will be. Schools must credit your account at least once per term (semester, trimester, or quarter). Schools that do not use formally defined, traditional terms must credit your account at least twice per academic year. What Is A Federal Supplemental Educational Opportunity Grant? A Federal Supplemental Educational Opportunity Grant (FSEOG) is for undergraduates with exceptional financial need--that is, students with the lowest Expected Family Contributions (EFCs)-- and gives priority to students who receive Federal Pell Grants. An FSEOG doesn’t have to be paid back. What’s The Difference Between The FSEOG And Federal Pell Grant? The U.S. Department of Education guarantees that each participating school will receive enough money to pay the Federal Pell Grants of its eligible students. There’s no guarantee every eligible student will be able to receive an FSEOG; students at each school may be awarded an FSEOG based on the availability of funds at that school. How Much Money Can I Get? You can receive between $100 and $5,550 a year, depending on when you apply, your level of need, the funding level of the school you’re attending, and the policies of the financial aid office where you attend school.

All above mentioned institutions are also compelled to make available information regarding proper reporting of criminal actions on campus, basic security measures on and around campus, and the prohibition of illegal drugs or alcohol on campus. Stevenson Academy of Hair Design has collected data and reported for the calendar year ending December 31, 2009. A full copy of the report is available in the administrative office. SCHOOL REPORTING PROCEDURE 1. If a student or employee feels a crime has been committed, such information should be reported immediately to the school’s administrative office. 2. The office staff or available employee will call the police department directly (911) if life or property is in immediate danger. 3. If there is no immediate danger to life or property, the office staff will take a written statement from the person reporting the incident. 4. If bodily injury is involved, a detailed description of the injury will be included in the report. 5. The staff member will immediately report all information received to the school owners (Mr. or Mrs. Williams). If no school owner is on site, staff will secure telephone number from office telephone file, and immediately contact one of the owners and report the incident. POSSESSION, USE OR SALE OF ALCOHOLIC BEVERAGES OR ILLEGAL DRUGS Any student or employee involved in such activity will be brought under the “Drug Free Schools and Campuses Regulations”. Also School Rules and Regulations number 17 will apply. CRIME STATISTICS There have been no known incidences of murder, rape, robbery, aggravated assault, burglary, or motor vehicle theft between January 1, 2009 and December 31, 2009, as well as the two preceding calendar years. CAMPUS SECURITY INFORMATION This information is required under Public Law 102-26. The following data will provide you with campus security policies and statistics concerning the occurrence of criminal offenses on campus, non-campus buildings/property, and public property. Should you witness a crime in progress or are a victim of a crime, Stevenson Academy of Hair Design requests that you follow this procedure: During school hours, notify James R. Williams and the New Orleans police department immediately at 504.821.2222. If a crime occurs during non-school hours and no faculty or staff member is available, notify the New Orleans police department immediately and the School Director, James R. Williams as soon as possible during normal business hours. Remember: Preserving evidence for proof of a criminal offense is very important. Stevenson Academy does not recognize any off campus student organizations that would be covered under this act. - 86 - DRUG & ALCOHOL ABUSE PREVENTION POLICY This is to inform you of the requirements of the Drug-Free Schools and Communities Act Amendments of 1989, Public Law 101-226 and the requirements of Stevenson Academy of Hair Design Staff and Students. Staff and Students are prohibited from the unlawful manufacture, distribution, possession, or use of illicit drugs or alcohol. This prohibition applies while on the property of the school or participating in any institutional activity. Students and employees who violate this policy will be subject to disciplinary action up to and including expulsion or termination from employment. There are numerous legal sanctions under local, state, and federal laws which can be used to punish violators. Penalties can range from suspension, revocation and denial of a driver’s license to 20 - 40 years imprisonment at hard labor without benefit of parole. Property may be seized. Community service may be mandated. Examples of penalties found in federal law for drug trafficking are included as Appendix A. Recent federal anti-drug laws affect a number of areas in everyone’s lives. Students could lose eligibility for financial aid, could be denied other federal benefits, such as Social Security, retirement, welfare, health, disability, and veterans benefits. The Department of Housing and Urban Development, which provides funds to states and communities for public housing, now has the authority to evict residents and members of their household who are involved in drug-related crimes on or near the public housing premises. Businesses could lose federal contracts if the company does not promote a drug-free environment. Finally, a record of felony or conviction in a drug-related crime may prevent a person from entering certain careers. The laws of the state of Louisiana are adequate to protect the innocent, but stringent enough to ensure that persons involved with the illegal dealing of drugs or excessive use of alcohol can be adequately punished. For example, a small amount of drugs found on a person may lead to an arrest which could require the person to make payment of all court costs as well as participate in mandatory community service. A person found with drugs could be forced to pay court costs, lawyer’s fees, participate in community service, receive an increase in the cost of automobile insurance or even loose their driver’s license and end up in prison. Particular information about any specific state or local law related to drugs or alcohol is included in Appendix E. In addition to local and state authorities, the federal government has four agencies employing approximately 52,500 personnel engaged in fighting elicit drugs. These agencies are: The Drug Enforcement Agency (DEA), US Customs Service (USCS), Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI), and the U.S. Coast Guard (USCG). Here are a few legal facts of which we should be aware. It is a crime to hold someone else’s drugs. It is a crime to sell fake drugs. You can be arrested if you are in a house (or a school) where people are using drugs, even though you are not. You can be charged with possessing drugs even if it is not on you. You are considered to possess, under legal terms of “constructive possession” drugs that are in your locker purse, car, or house. Drug abuse is the utilization of natural and/or synthetic chemical substances for non-medical reasons to affect the body and its processes, the mind and nervous system, and behavior. The abuse of drugs can affect a person’s physical and emotional health and social life. Alcohol is the most abused drug in the United States. Drugs can be highly addictive and injurious to the body as well as one’s self. People tend to loose their sense of responsibility and coordination. Restlessness, irritability, anxiety, paranoia, depression, acting slow moving, inattentiveness, loss of appetite, sexual indifference, comas, convulsions or even death can result from over use or abuse of drugs. Not only does the person using drugs subject himself to all sorts of health risks, drug use can and, in many instances do, cause grief and discomfort to innocent people. A drug-dulled brain, for example, affects wide range of skills needed for safe driving, such as drinking. Further, reflexes are slowed, making it hard for drivers to respond to student, unexpected events. There are drug and alcohol counseling, treatment, and rehabilitation facilities available in our area where you seek advice and treatment. The yellow pages of the local telephone book are an excellent source. Look under the heading “Drug Abuse and addiction - Information and Treatment”. The Louisiana Office of Prevention and Recovery from Alcohol and Drug Abuse Office operates clinics and half-way houses (318) 632-2040. The Council on Drugs and Alcohol operates a counseling center which recommends treatment (318) 632-2040. Payment is on a sliding scale. - 87 - There are national organizations one can contact for help. The Alcoholism and Drug Abuse Hotline is open 24 hours, 1-800-252-6465. The Cocaine Hotline, 1-800-444-9999 is open 24 hours per day. The National Institute on Drug Abuse Hotline is available 8:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m., Monday through Friday and 11:00 a.m. to 2:00 a.m. on weekends, 1-800-662-4357. Dependency upon drugs can only lead to a life of misery and misfortune. The illegal use or abuse of drugs has a very high impact on our society and the type of crimes committed. To support a drug habit, people must resort to many things which can only lead to a life of horror and in come instances, death. The dollar cost can range from $200 to $3,000 per week to support a habit. More importantly, the drug habit impacts a person’s family and lifestyle and career prospects as well as one’s physical well-being and self-respect. Treatment is available and maybe expensive. For example, a typical live-in program lasting four weeks can cost from $ 5,000 to $ 15,000. Out-patient programs cost from $1,000 to $5,000. Who pays for these treatments? There maybe programs which cover costs. One way or another, the person and the taxpayers pay! It has been proven that an individual “hooked” cannot just stop but requires professional care to kick the habit. There are classic danger signals that could indicate the first sign of drug use. The primary ones that could call attention to one’s use of drugs are: Abrupt changes in mood or attitude, continuing slump at work or school, continuing resistance to discipline at home or school, cannot get along with family or friends, unusual temper flare-ups, increased borrowing of money, heightened secrecy or a complete new set of friends We recommend that any person observing any of the above changes in either staff or students immediately notify the school Manager or the Director. Caution must be observed not to wrongly accuse a person suspected of taking drugs as an improper accusation could lead to embarrassment both to the individual and the school. Once it has been determined by the management that assistance to overcome a drug problem is necessary, the individual and his/her family should be counseled on the need for assistance. Records must be maintained of any counseling provided the individual. There are clinics in the school’s vicinity which can render assistance. Treatment must be an expense borne by the patient. The school can only offer advice in a limited manner. If the individual is in immediate danger of harming either him/herself or others, local law authorities should be immediately contacted. Staff and students who violate these standards of conduct subject themselves to disciplinary action. Students are reminded that as a pre-condition to accepting a Federal Pell Grant that they sign a certification stating they would not engage in the unlawful manufacture, distribution, dispensation, possession, or use of a controlled substance. A Federal Pell Grant recipient convicted of a criminal drug offense enrollment covered by the Federal Pell Grant must report the conviction, in writing, within ten (10) calendar days of the conviction, to the Director, 400 Maryland Avenue, SW, Room 3073, FOB-6, Washington, DC 20202-4571. Failure to report the conviction could lead to Loss, Suspension, and/or Termination or debarment. Staff, upon being hired by Stevenson Academy of Hair Design, (and students employed under College Work-Study Program, who work at the institution) receive a briefing and acknowledge in writing that they understand the provisions of the Drug-Free Workplace Act of 1988. (Only institution participating in campus-based programs must maintain drug-free workplaces). Employees must notify the Director of school in writing of a conviction. Appendix D provides the Drug-Free Workplace Statement. Disciplinary action will be taken place within 30 days of notification, and can range from a letter of admonishment, suspension from school or work, and/or enrollment in a rehabilitation program to termination from either school or employment. - 88 - HARASSMENT POLICY Harassment, including sexual harassment, is prohibited by the Academy, federal and state laws. This policy prohibits harassment, and Loyola will take appropriate action to swiftly address any unlawful harassment. Harassment is defined as verbal or physical conduct that has as its effect to threaten, intimidate or coerce. Also included are verbal taunting (including racial and ethnic slurs) which, in the employee's or the student’s opinion, impairs his or her ability to perform his or her job or studies. Examples of inappropriate conduct are: (1) Verbal: Insulting comments, epithets, slurs or negative stereotyping, regarding a person's nationality, origin, race, color, religion, age, gender, sexual orientation, disability or other protected status. (2) Non-verbal: Distribution or display of any written or graphic material that ridicules, denigrates insults, belittles, or shows hostility toward an individual or group because of national origin, race color, religion, age, gender, sexual orientation, disability, or other protected status. Students and employees who violate this policy will be subject to disciplinary action up to and including expulsion or termination from employment. SEXUAL HARASSMENT POLICY Sexual harassment is prohibited by the Academy under this policy. Sexual harassment is a form of discrimination and is unlawful under Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 and Title IX of the Educational Amendments of 1972. According to the these statutes, sexual harassment is defined as "unwelcome sexual advances, requests for sexual favors, and other verbal or physical conduct of a sexual nature when submission to or rejection of such conduct is used as the basis for employment or educational decisions or such conduct has the purpose or effect of creating an intimidating, hostile, or offensive working or learning environment." Unsolicited and unwelcome sexual advances, requests for sexual favors or other verbal or physical conduct of a sexual nature constitute sexual harassment, when: a) such advances or requests are made under circumstances implying that one’s response might affect educational or personnel decisions that are subject to the influence of the person making the proposal, or b) acceptance or rejection of such advances or requests is used as a basis for an employment or educational decision, or c) such speech or conduct is directed against another and is either abusive or severely humiliating, or persists despite the objection of the person targeted by the speech or conduct; or d) such speech or conduct is reasonably regarded as offensive and substantially impairs the academic or work opportunity of students, colleagues, or co-workers. If it takes place in the teaching context, it must also be persistent, pervasive, and not germane to the subject matter. The academic setting is distinct from the workplace in that wide latitude is required for professional judgment in determining the appropriate content and presentation of academic material. Sexual harassment does not refer to behavior or occasional compliments of a socially acceptable nature. It refers to behavior that is unwelcome, that is personally offensive, and therefore interferes with work or learning effectiveness. Sexual harassment may take different forms. Examples of conduct that may constitute sexual harassment are: (1) Verbal: Sexual innuendoes, suggestive comments, jokes of a sexual nature, sexual propositions, lewd remarks, threats, requests for any type of sexual favor (this includes repeated, unwelcome requests for dates), and verbal abuse or "kidding" which is oriented towards a prohibitive form of harassment, including that which is sex oriented and considered unwelcome. (2) Non-verbal: The distribution, display, or discussion of any written or graphic material, including images, posters, and cartoons that are sexually suggestive, or show hostility toward an individual or group because of sex; suggestive or insulting sounds; leering; staring; whistling; obscene gestures; content in letters and notes, facsimiles, e-mail, that is sexual in nature. (3) Physical: Unwelcome, unwanted physical contact, including but not limited to, touching, tickling, pinching, patting, brushing up against, hugging, cornering, kissing, fondling; forced sexual intercourse or assault. There are three types of sexual harassment: 1. "Quid pro quo" harassment, where submission to harassment is used as the basis for employment or educational decisions. Quid pro quo harassment occurs when employee benefits such as raises, promotions, working hours, etc., or student benefits such as grades, assignments, recommendations, etc. are directly linked to compliance with sexual advances. Therefore, only someone with the authority to grant such benefits can engage in quid pro quo harassment. Example: A supervisor promising or implying a raise to an employee if she goes on a date with him; a professor telling or suggesting to a student he will not get a recommendation for graduate school if he does not go out with her. - 89 - 2. "Hostile work or learning environment," where the harassment creates an offensive and unpleasant working or learning environment. Hostile environment can be created by anyone in the work or learning environment, whether it is supervisors, fellow employees, professors, students, or outside contractors. Hostile environment harassment consists of language of a sexual nature, unwelcome sexual materials, or unwelcome physical contact as a regular part of the work or educational environment. Cartoons or posters of a sexual nature, vulgar or lewd comments or jokes, or unwanted touching or fondling all fall into this category. Again, it is recognized that the academic setting is distinct from the workplace in that latitude is required for professional judgment in determining the appropriate content and presentation of academic material. 3. “Gender-based hostility”, where an individual or individuals are harassed because of their gender. Students and employees who violate this policy will be subject to disciplinary action up to and including expulsion or termination from employment. Students and employees who violate this policy will be subject to disciplinary action up to and including expulsion or termination from employment. - 90 - TUITION AND FEES INFORMATION Upon enrollment at Stevenson Academy of Hair Design, the total unpaid balance is due and payable in full.
