Examining policy ^ Exploring the college's policy on sexual assault or harassment reveals privacy issues.

JANE BAST infocus editor In the past three years at Hope College, 36 claims of sexual harassment and two cases of sexual assault have been documented. Yet no one s e e m s to h a v e heard about ih'em.

A recent alleged assault has raised questions about the nature of Hope's sexual harassment policy.

Although the policy is available through the office of Student Development and i n f o r m a t i o n was sent to all freshmen students at the beginning of fall semester, few students are familiar with it.

"I think it s like lifeboat training on the Titanic," said Sexual Harassment Policy Educator Kristen Gray.

This adds up to three Frisbee-re-

"Any activity that injures students should be a concern," Powers said.

Powers has presented this opinion to the administration in e-mailS and most recently at the January Faculty Meeting.

"Concern has been raised and we are going to look into it," said Diana Breclaw, the Director of Student Activities. "I want to see Frisbee golf stay on campus, but we can make it safer. We need to make sure that when people throw the Frisbee that no one's around." more FRISBEE on 5

H o p e students deal with reality of diabetes MELANIE L O F Q U I S X staff reporter Josiah Dykstra ('02) always wanted to be an astronaut.

He'd even gone to space camp twice. Then, in sixth grade he was diagnosed with Type I Diabetes. Unfortunately for Dykstra, the potential complications of diabetes make it impossible for him to pilot an aircraft.

Dykstra said, now a computer science and music major. "The FA A won't lei you fly because there are loo many health hazards for you and your passengers. Your sugars can get too high or too low. And no one knows exactly what would happen to you in space."

Type I Diabetes is a chronic disease where the body fails to produce insulin, which is needed to breakdown glucose. If a diabetic's blood sugar level is too high over a period of years, they can develop severe complications, such as blindness, circulatory problems and

kidney and heart disease.

Diabetics inject themselves daily with insulin to break down the glucose in their body.

If a diabetic's blood sugar level is too low, from too much insulin, they can pass out and even die. Therefore, diabetics must regulate their blood sugar level by checking it several times a day, exercising regularly, and watching what they eat.

"I probably don't take as good care of it as I did in high school. I don't know if it's because my parents aren't here to remind me or

I'm lazy or I don't have lime," Dykstra said.

Dykstra's maintenance plan includes eating at about the same time every day, visiting an endocrinologist (a diabetes specialist) annually, checking his blood sugar level one or two times per day and giving himself insulin shots twice a day.

When Dykstra's blood sugar drops, he eats something to counteract the insulin.

Gray said.

The policy also presents options for procedure in sexual harassment cases.

Complainants may opl for an informal process where they, their advocate and the alleged harasser and his or her advocate meet with a trained mediator to discuss the situation.

Students could choose an Administrative Review, where a committee meets separately with the complainant and the alleged harasser.

The committee attempts to understand both perspectives, decides on the validity of the complaint, and "I think it's horrible.

Gray feels il is up to the students lo use the i n f o r m a t i o n they are given.

"We can pul il in your hands," Gray said. "We can'l force you lo use il."

In cases of sexual harassment or assault, the administration's grealest concern is for the well-being of ihc parlies involved.

"We want the process to be fair lo all involved." Frost said. "And we care equally for the safely of the community."

Bullman voiced concern for the life-changing implications of the victims of sexual assault.

Gray, who is also the Director of Counseling at Hope, is concerned that each party involved in a case of harassment or assault has an advocate for primary support and that all parlies have their right lo confidentiality.

"All of the people thai I have talked to in six years of working at the Counseling Center who present sexual assault as a concern are fearful that il will not be kept confidential," Gray said.

As Policy Director, Gray feels i f is her responsibility lo insure that all parties involved in a harassment complaint receive fair and respectful treatment. That impartiality is ensured through confidentiality.

"This is such a confidential process that not even I have all the names of p e o p l e b r i n g i n g forth complaints," Gray said. "I never do.

That's not pari of the deal."

Students' rights in sexual harassment and sexual assault cases are protected by the Sexual Harassment Policy in several ways.

First, both victims and accused harassers choose advocates, trained students, members of the faculty or staff w h o represent and support their charge through any and all harassment proceedings.Secondly, the policy itself is filled with checks and balances lo make sure no one parly is favored in any

Powers echoed this idea of finding a solution thai balances preserving ihe game and safely. " I ' m not t r y i n g to e l i m i n a t e Frisbee golf," Powers said. "That's not a solution."

Powers' suggestions for making Frisbee golf a safer activity are varied. One method would be the limiting of hours available for playing ihe game. The hours between 8 a.m. and 5 p.m. on weekdays are the prime hours when there is a greal deal of traffic on campus that could p o t e n t i a l l y r e c e i v e injury f r o m Frisbee golfers.

Joel Toppen, professor of Political Science and Frisbee golfer, supports ihe idea of limiting or elimin a t i n g ihe D e W i l l h o l e d u r i n g working hours.

"If students ask me to play, I w o n ' t play until a f t e r 5 , " said Toppen. "Otherwise you have lo stand around and wait to throw."

Another idea Powers suggested would be an alteration of the course, to eliminate holes where there have been injuries or have high potential

Having instant glucose on-hand is one of ihe things the Health Clinic requests of diabetic students. They also ask them lo wear a medical alert necklace or bracelet and make sure their Resident Assistant and roommaie know of their condition.

"Our students who have diabetes for a while are usually very well educated about their illness and its management." said Anne McKay, one of the Registered Nurses at the Health Clinic. "For the most pari, students are very successful at managing their diabetes within the context of college."

"College life may make their disease more complicated to manage because stress, change in diet and sleep patterns, and increased exposure to illness all have an impact on the management of insulin-depen-

About once a week, Jackson deals with low blood sugar level which can c a u s e slurred speech, shakes, mood changes, and even hallucinations.

"I've had my share of low blood sugar limes," Jackson said. "I usually notice the signs so it's not too bad. I ' v e gone lo the emergency room twice while al Hope."

Meghan Breeden ('03) visited the hospital a few weeks ago because of ihe complications she had with her diabetes when she had the flu.

"It was an adjustment coming to college," Breeden said. " I have a lot of stress I didn't have at home that effects my sugar. That stress makes me have more severe highs and lows."

For years, Breeden's doctors in Indianapolis had told her of an in-

sulin pump, which automatically delivers insulin every hour.

Breeden, who was diagnosed with diabetes when she was five, was finally convinced of the advantages of such a device and has been attending meetings since August lo prepare for the insulin pump she will have inserted on June 5.

"It'll give me a lot more flexibility," Breeden said. "Right now, my four shots per day are supposed to be at specific limes. Last semester was really hard with my schedule.

This will help with control and will bring my blood s u g a r a v e r a g e s down."

Both Breeden and Jackson stress that there have been good things that have come out of their experience with diabetes. Breeden says she learned discipline, stress management, and determination from her experiences, while Jackson says the disease brought her closer to God.
