Sex Discrimination, Sexual Harassment, and Sexual and Interpersonal Violence
Our policies prohibit sexual harassment, sexual assault, dating violence, domestic violence and stalking. In addition, discrimination based on sex, gender, gender identity, gender expression, sexual orientation, familial status, and pregnancy-related conditions is prohibited. We encourage reporting these instances so that the University can investigate and provide resources to students and employees.
The reason for this is that discrimination and harassment, including sexual and interpersonal violence is particularly harmful to the reporting person and creates a hostile learning and working environment. Therefore, the University encourages reporting incidents so that the we can respond and maintain a safe learning environment through both prevention education and resolution to such reports.
