The best practice would be when the University has actual knowledge of sexual harassment in its education program or activity, against a person in the United States, it must respond promptly in a manner that is not deliberately indifferent. The University is deliberately indifferent only if its response to sexual harassment is clearly unreasonable in light of the known circumstances. Complaints of sexual harassment, as defined in this Policy, will be addressed using the procedures set forth in this Policy.

Alleged misconduct that falls outside the scope of this Policy may be addressed through other University policies and rules, including the Student Code of Conduct, collective bargaining agreements, and Human Resources policies. All University employees and any member of the University community who supervises faculty, staff, students, or volunteers, except those exempt from reporting as set forth in this Policy or expressly identified as a confidential reporter, have an obligation to report incidents that may be a violation of this Policy. Any such individual who receives a disclosure of allegations of conduct in violation of this Policy or becomes aware of information that would lead a reasonable person to believe that a violation may have occurred involving anyone covered under this Policy, must report all known information immediately.

HOW DO I RESPOND TO THIS POST?
