Victims of assault have the right to reasonable adjustments in their academic settings to accommodate their needs following the incident. This means that institutions recognize the potential impact of such traumatic experiences on a victim's ability to perform academically, and they have policies in place to provide support during this challenging time. Reasonable adjustments may include modifying class schedules, providing additional time for assignments, or allowing for alternative testing arrangements.

This approach helps ensure that victims can continue their education while receiving the necessary support, acknowledging the serious implications that such incidents can have on a student's well-being and academic performance. By facilitating reasonable adjustments, educational institutions demonstrate their commitment to creating a supportive environment for all students, particularly those affected by violence or trauma.
