Student Handbook: Code of Student Conduct- Harassment

Relevant Excerpt

The term “harassment” means conduct that, in the aggregate, is sufficiently pervasive, persistent, or severe that a reasonable person with the same characteristics of the victim of the harassing conduct would be adversely affected to a degree that interferes with their ability to participate in or to realize the intended benefits of an institutional activity, employment, or resource. It may consist of written, electronic, verbal, and/or physical acts. It is also defined as using abusive language, including electronic communication, tending to incite an immediate breach of the peace to any person, persistent following or stalking of a person, or engaging in a course of conduct or repeatedly committing acts that cause mental or physical harm to another person.
