基于性别的骚扰
学校禁止学生、员工或第三方进行基于性别的骚扰，如果行为严重到足以拒绝或限制学生参与学校教育计划和活动或从中受益的能力;明示或默示地服从或拒绝此类行为，是接纳或就业的条款或条件，或接纳或就业决定的依据;或此类行为具有不合理干扰绩效或创造恐吓、敌对、侮辱或性攻击性学习或工作环境的目的或效果。

Title IX prohibits several types of sex-based harassment. For the purposes of this policy, the following definitions apply. 基于性别的骚扰是指与个人性别或他人性别有关的不受欢迎的行为. 性暴力是基于性别的骚扰的一种形式，是指违背个人意愿或在个人无法给予同意的情况下实施的身体性行为.g., due to the individual’s age or use of drugs or alcohol, 或者因为智力或其他残疾使个人没有能力给予同意). A number of different acts fall into the category of sexual violence, including rape, sexual assault, sexual battery, sexual abuse, and sexual coercion. 基于性别的骚扰是基于性别的骚扰的另一种形式，指的是基于个人实际性别或感知性别的不受欢迎的行为, 包括基于性别认同或不符合性别刻板印象的骚扰, and not necessarily involving conduct of a sexual nature. 所有这些基于性别的骚扰都是第九条所禁止的基于性别的歧视形式.

Harassing conduct may take many forms, including verbal acts and name-calling, as well as nonverbal behavior, such as graphic and written statements, or conduct that is physically threatening, harmful, or humiliating. The more severe the conduct, 就越不需要展示一系列重复的事件来证明一个充满敌意的环境, particularly if the conduct is physical. 事实上，单一或孤立的性暴力事件可能造成敌对的环境.

Sex-based harassment may occur between students, between students and employees, between employees, between students and third parties, and between employees and third parties, regardless of the genders of the victim and harasser.

Complaints and Investigation Process
根据本政策调查投诉(和/或指定其他个人进行调查)的责任已分配给合规协调员. 遇到或目睹违反本政策行为的学生或员工应立即向合规协调员或学校管理部门的任何成员报告. 任何收到投诉的学校管理人员都必须立即向合规协调员报告.

Prohibition Against Retaliation
任何学生或员工对投诉人的报复或报复, witnesses, 或者任何其他举报性骚扰指控的人, discrimination, 和/或暴力或提供信息以协助调查是严格禁止的. 认为自己因这种行动而受到报复的个人应立即向遵约协调员报告这种行为.
