Any faculty member, staff member, or student, including, without restriction, those on temporary or part-time status, who believes that he or she has been discriminated against, harassed or retaliated against should file a complaint under the Grievance Procedure. Any attempt to penalize or retaliate against a person for filing a complaint or participating in the investigation of a complaint of discrimination and/or harassment will be treated as a separate and distinct violation of University policy.
