Sexual Harassment

Members of the college community have the right to be free from all forms of sex/gender harassment, discrimination, and sexual misconduct.

Three separate types of conduct that would constitute “sexual harassment” under Title IX and would warrant a Title IX investigation include:

1. An employee of the College makes providing an aid, benefit or service of the College conditional upon an individual’s participation in unwelcome sexual conduct.
2. There is unwelcome conduct on the basis of sex that a reasonable person would deem so severe, pervasive and objectively offensive that it effectively denies a person equal access to the College’s education program or activity; or
3. An individual is subjected to “sexual assault,” as defined by the Clery Act, which is classified as a forcible or non-forcible sex offense under the uniform crime reporting system of the Federal Bureau of Investigation.

Any allegations of sexual harassment or misconduct that do not fall under the jurisdiction of Title IX will be handled through the college’s Student Code of Conduct Policy.
