Sexual and other harassment diminishes the college in achieving its mission through its insidious and detrimental impact on individual students, faculty, staff and the college community as a whole. All harassment stifles the realization of the victim's full potential as a student, faculty or staff member. Harassment is especially serious when it threatens relations between teacher and student or supervisor and subordinate by unfairly exploiting the power differential between the parties in the relationship. Likewise, Graceland University does not tolerate harassment between people of equal college status. Procedures relating to this policy are available upon request from the President's office.
Courses are available for non-degree seeking students interested in courses for personal enrichment.
