University of South Alabama Sexual Misconduct Policy & Complaint Resolution Procedures SEXUAL MISCONDUCT POLICY Revised & Approved August 2020

The University of South Alabama (the “University”) is committed to establishing and maintaining an environment where individuals, regardless of gender, gender identity, gender expression, or sexual orientation, are free from sex discrimination, sexual harassment, sexual violence, domestic violence, dating violence, stalking, and retaliation (collectively “sexual misconduct”).

The University considers sexual misconduct to be a serious offense because it undermines the atmosphere of trust and respect that is essential to a healthy University Community. As such, sexual misconduct violates the standards of our University Community and constitutes a violation of this policy.

This policy is outlined in the complete form on the USA Title IX website.
