Discrimination and Harassment: Engaging in discrimination or harassment (including bullying, cyberbullying, or physical or other abuse) based on an individual’s race, color, religion, national origin, sex, pregnancy status, sexual orientation, gender identity or expression, parental status, marital status, age, disability, citizenship, veteran status, or genetic information. This includes unwelcome behavior that is offensive and sufficiently severe or pervasive to interfere with or limit an individual's ability to participate in or benefit from the College's services, activities, or privileges, or that creates an intimidating, hostile, or abusive environment. This policy also covers behavior not specifically based on protected class status, such as general bullying or abuse. While isolated incidents typically do not constitute harassment, bullying, or abuse, a single severe incident may meet this threshold. Harassment includes persistent aggressive or unreasonable behavior, which can be verbal, nonverbal, psychological, or physical. The policy extends to cyber harassment or cyberbullying and other forms of digital communication harassment on any platform, whether or not controlled by the College. Discrimination, harassment, or other misconduct based on actual or perceived protected characteristics is contrary to the values of the College.
