Reports of Sex Discrimination

Any person may report alleged sex discrimination, sex-based harassment, or retaliation to the Title IX Coordinator, even if the reporting person is not the alleged victim of such conduct. The Title IX Coordinator will take appropriate action to address a report, including contacting the alleged victim to determine if they would like to file a complaint and to provide information about available supportive measures.

Sex discrimination is different treatment with respect to a person’s employment or participation in an education program or activity based, in whole or in part, upon the person’s sex. Sex discrimination may be committed by any person upon any other person on the basis of sex, including on the basis of sex stereotypes, sex characteristics, pregnancy or related conditions, sexual orientation, gender and/or gender identity of those involved. Sex discrimination can also include discrimination by the School on the basis of parental, family, or marital status in its admissions process, in the provision of financial assistance, or in employment actions.

Sex-based harassment is a form of sex discrimination and means sexual harassment and other harassment on the basis of sex, including quid pro quo harassment, hostile environment harassment, sexual assault, dating violence, domestic violence, and stalking.

Retaliation means intimidation, threats, coercion, or discrimination against any person by the School, a student, or an employee or other person authorized by the School to provide aid, benefit, or service under the School’s education program or activity, for the purpose of interfering with any right or privilege secured by Title IX.

Please see the relevant Title IX Policy for more information about sex discrimination, sex-based harassment, and retaliation, as well as NETTTS’ grievance procedure for resolving complaints.
