97 committed to preventing such conduct, investigating complaints of inappropriate conduct and remedying violations of this policy. Any employee, faculty member or student who believes that he/she is or may be subjected to objectionable conduct are strongly encouraged to report it immediately to an Anti-Harassment Panel member. No member of the University community should allow an inappropriate situation to continue by not reporting it, regardless of who is creating that situation. Furthermore, no supervisor or manager is exempt from reporting misconduct in violation of this policy. Those inflicting such behavior on others are subject to the full range of institutional disciplinary actions, up to and including separation from the University and/or referral to authorities for criminal prosecution, as appropriate. Because the relationship between teacher and student is central to the academic mission of the University, it is essential to establish that the standard of expected conduct in that relationship goes beyond the proscription against sexual harassment as defined in the University’s policy. No nonacademic or personal ties should be allowed to interfere with the academic integrity of the teacher-student relationship. With respect to sexual relations in particular, what might appear to be consensual, even to the parties involved, may in fact not be so. On this basis, any sexual relations between any teacher and any student, or other person in a supervisory role and any student are inappropriate. This category includes relations between a graduate student and an undergraduate student, when the graduate student has some supervisory and/or academic responsibility for the undergraduate student. In addition, it includes relations between an administrator, coach, adviser, program director, counselor or residential staff member who has supervisory responsibility for a student. The University deems such relations to be unethical. The Anti-Harassment Panel members will respond to reports brought to them of inappropriate and unethical sexual behavior and will act to help ensure the protection of its students and the maintenance of the integrity of the University. In order to discourage such sexual relations, in acting on complaints that come to the University’s attention, any complaint of sexual harassment by a student against an individual will be presumed to be a violation of this policy if sexual relations have occurred between them while the individual was teaching or otherwise had, or is likely to have, supervisory responsibility or academic/professional influence over the student. Additionally, any sexual relations between a supervisor and an employee they supervise is inappropriate. Other Elements Failure to recognize that one’s behavior is sexually harassing to an individual or group of individuals is not a suitable response to an allegation of harassment. Differences in perception on the part of individuals who have complained of harassment have led to court rulings based on the reasonable person standard in evaluating offensive behavior. Accordingly, all members of the University community should consider how others may view their behavior, and not just how they view it personally. Gender-based harassment or behavior that ridicules, denigrates and/or harasses a person because of his/her gender may not be sexual in nature, but may constitute a hostile work or learning environment resulting in harassment and will not be tolerated. ADELPHI UNIVERSITY • GUIDE TO STUDENT LIFE Harassment that is not directed toward a specific individual may still create a hostile or offensive work or learning environment for individuals, and is also prohibited by this policy (e.g., pornographic materials on an office desk). In addition, conduct that is directed to another individual may create a hostile or offensive work or learning environment to a third party who
observes or overhears the offensive physical or verbal conduct (e.g., two individuals engaged in a consensual relationship openly discuss their sex lives and this offends another individual). 98 Persons involved in consensual relationships outside of the teacher/student, supervisor/ subordinate or professional/student roles must exercise caution to prevent the development of harassing behavior or use of authority inappropriately. If consensual relationships change and are no longer mutual, conduct once welcome by both individuals may become unwelcome to one. The fact that there is initial consent forming a romantic relationship does not preclude a charge of harassment in the future. Confidentiality The University will investigate every complaint promptly and thoroughly. The existence and nature of a complaint will be disclosed to the extent necessary to make a prompt and thorough investigation and/or as may be necessary to take appropriate corrective measures. Those individuals responding to requests for information regarding any complaint are required to maintain confidentiality. The University will comply with all federal, state, and local mandates regarding the reporting of crimes to appropriate authorities. Retaliation Under no circumstances will Adelphi University tolerate any retaliation against an individual for making a complaint of harassment or discrimination in good faith under this policy or for participating in an investigation. The University considers such retaliation or the threat of retaliation at any stage to be a serious offense because it is unlawful and may prevent potential complainants, witnesses or others from reporting harassment. Any individual who is retaliated against or threatened in any way should report any such retaliatory act to any of those to whom a report of harassment might be made under this policy. Any complaint of retaliation will be investigated and appropriate action will be taken consistent with this policy. Cooperation/Obstructing the Process All members of the University community, including employees, students, faculty and administrators are asked to assist and cooperate in the application of this policy, in particular by cooperating in any investigation under this policy. Any person whose willful action or inaction obstructs the application of these procedures or who breaks an agreement shall be subject to disciplinary action. Additionally, those with supervisory responsibility, such as senior administrators, deans, managers, department chairs or supervisors should be aware that they might be held responsible/ liable for action or inaction, which obstructs the application of this policy; they are required to report any incidences of harassment to the proper contact person. Support and Assistance Members of unions and employee associations have all rights to representation that their Collective Bargaining Agreements confer. Students may avail themselves of the support and assistance as outlined in the Code of Conduct, which is available in the Guide to Student Life and at the Office of the Assistant Dean of Student Affairs. Implementation The Office of the Assistant Vice President for Human Resources and Labor Relations, in conjunction with the chairperson of the Anti-Harassment Panel, will be responsible for the implementation and dissemination of this policy.
