(A) Purpose

To establish a rule on registered sex offenders
and the use of the sex offender registry.

(B) Scope

This applies to all persons who are seeking
employment or admission to the university, all persons who are employed by the
university in any capacity, and to all students upon admission into any
university program.

(C) Definitions

(1) "Sex
Offender" is a person who meets the statutory definition set forth in
section 2950.01 of the Revised Code.

(2) Electronic sex
offender registration and notification "ESORN" is a database that
contains information regarding all registered sex offenders in the state of
Ohio. "ESORN" may be found at
http://www.esorn.ag.state.oh.us/secured/p1.aspx.

(D) Rule statement

(1) In accordance with
Section 1092(f) of The Jean Clery Disclosure of Campus Security Policy and
Campus Crime Statistics Act, 20 U.S.C and further amendments, and Section 1232g
of the Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act of 1974, 20 U.S.C., the
university department of public safety and security provides a link to the Ohio
attorney general's electronic sex offender registration and notification
"ESORN" web site on its website.

(2) All sex offenders
required to register in the state of Ohio or any other state are required to
notify the university of their sex offender status if they are applying for
employment or admission to the university. All employees or students who become
registered sex offenders are required to notify the university at the time they
are first required to register with the state. Employees must notify their
immediate supervisors and the department of human resources and students must
notify the dean for student affairs or the dean of their respective
college.

(3) Due to the nature of
the university programs, environment, student populations, and patient
population, registered sex offenders will not be considered for employment or
admission to the university. The university department of human resources or
the admissions office will query "ESORN" prior to finalizing offers
of employment, faculty status or admission to its academic programs. Becoming a
registered sex offender is grounds for termination of employment and dismissal
from the academic programs of the university.

(4) Any employee or
student charged with a sexually oriented offense as that term is defined under
section 2950.01 of the Revised Code or a similar offense under the laws of any
other state is required to report this information to the university
immediately.
