Sexual Harassment Policy
The University of Florida is committed to maintaining a workplace and educational environment free from sexual and other forms of illegal harassment. Sexual and other harassment is reprehensible and subverts the mission of the University of Florida and will not be tolerated. It threatens the careers of faculty and staff and the educational experience of our students. The purpose of this policy is to prevent sexual harassment and to offer students and employees who believe they have been sexually harassed a means of redress and an environment conducive to learning and working. Retaliation against an individual who truthfully complains about sexual harassment or who cooperates with an investigation of a complaint will not be tolerated.This policy applies to visitors, faculty, staff, students, and volunteers of the University.
