University of
North Texas

It is the purpose of this policy to provide the University of North Texas community (faculty, staff, administrators and students) and members of the public visiting the university a work place and educational environment free of sexual harassment and intimidation.  (Refer to UNT Policy Manual, Vol. I, #1.3.19.)

It is the policy of the University of North Texas that acts of sexual harassment, as defined herein, toward guests of and visitors to the campus or any member of the university community including faculty, staff, students and candidates for positions at the university (regardless of the individual's gender) will not be tolerated. All members of the administration, faculty, staff and students will be subject to disciplinary action for violation of this policy. Members of the public doing business with the university who violate this policy may be subject to sanctions.

Faculty and staff with any level of supervision shall report any suspected violations of this policy to the next level of supervision or to the Office of Equity and Diversity immediately upon becoming aware of any acts which might be in violation of this policy. Failure to report allegations of sexual harassment as set forth herein by those vested with the responsibility to do so is a violation of this policy. All reports of sexual harassment will be reviewed, even in the absence of a formal complaint, to determine whether an investigation is appropriate. All formal complaints will be investigated.

To the extent this policy conflicts with the provisions of the Faculty Handbook and any other university policy or publication, this sexual harassment policy shall take precedence.
