The College strives to maintain a healthy and safe environment where all members of the community, students, faculty and staff feel welcome on College locations and classrooms. Students, faculty and staff are thus prohibited from conducting themselves in a way that results in any form of sexual harassment, sex- based harassment and/or sexual violence.
