Sexual harassment is a form of unlawful discrimination.
It is the policy of Georgia Southern University to prohibit sexual harassment, and to respond promptly to all complaints of sexual harassment. This policy extends to all members of the University's student body, faculty and staff, and participants in the University's programs, and applies whether the harasser is a member of the University's student body, faculty, staff, or a provider of service to the University. Georgia Southern will conduct a thorough and confidential investigation of all complaints of sexual harassment. Any act of sexual harassment will subject the offender to dismissal or other sanctions after compliance with due process requirements. In order that the University can take corrective measures to end the harassment, persons who feel that they have been subjected to sexual harassment, and persons who may have knowledge of sexual harassment should file a report with the Affirmative Action Officer or any member of the University's administrative staff, such as a Vice President, Dean, Department Chair, Supervisor, or Director.
