The University of Texas at Dallas is committed to the principle that the University's working and learning environment will be free from inappropriate conduct of a sexual nature.  Sexual misconduct and sexual harassment in any form will not be tolerated and individuals who engage in such conduct will be subject to disciplinary action.

This policy applies to all University administrators, faculty, staff, students, visitors and applicants for employment or admission. It applies not only to unwelcome conduct that violates state and federal laws concerning sexual harassment but also to inappropriate conduct of a sexual nature. It is also applicable regardless of the gender of the complainant or the alleged harasser.
