Retaliation

It is a violation of University policy to retaliate against those involved in a complaint of harassment, discrimination, or sexual misconduct. Such conduct is inconsistent with University policy and may also be prohibited by law. Instances of retaliation will be investigated and adjudicated, and sanctioned where appropriate, as outlined in this policy.

“Retaliation” is defined as any adverse action taken against a person for making a complaint of prohibited conduct or for participating or being involved in the investigation of any such allegation. Retaliation is prohibited with or without a Cease Contact Directive. Report alleged acts of retaliation to the Title IX Coordinator, Deputy Title IX Coordinator(s), and/or Campus Safety & Police.
