Sexual Harassment and Sexual Misconduct
Policies and Procedures
Consistent with our mission and values, Hamline University is committed to developing and educating the whole person and to investing in the personal and professional growth of all community members. We also seek to maintain a safe and nurturing learning and working environment. Sexual misconduct of any form is a violation of a person’s rights, dignity, and integrity and will not be tolerated at Hamline University.
The following policies thus seek to prevent sexual misconduct including sexual harassment and discrimination; to support all students, faculty, and staff who have experienced such conduct; and to promptly and fairly respond to any allegations that any student, faculty, staff, or visitor has engaged in such conduct. In addition, retaliation by any student, faculty, or staff for the good faith bringing of a complaint or participating in any investigation or proceeding under this policy will not be tolerated and will be independent grounds for remedial action.
