Prohibited discrimination is treating someone differently based on membership in a protected class, or any other classification protected by law, in matters of admissions, employment, education, or in the programs or activities of the university.
Prohibited harassment is verbal or physical conduct, or conduct using technology, directed toward someone because of membership in a protected class (or a perception that someone is a member of a protected class) that has the purpose or effect of substantially interfering with the person’s access to education or work, or creating an intimidating, hostile or offensive working environment or academic experience.

向日葵视频 is committed to preventing and responding promptly to all forms of sexual misconduct, including sexual harassment, sexual assault, sexual exploitation, dating violence, domestic violence, and stalking.
Responsible Employees--all instructors, advisors, coaches and other athletic staff, student affairs administrators, employees in offices that interface with students, supervisors, and university officials--are required to report information known to them regarding an incident of sexual misconduct as soon as possible to the campus Deputy Sexual Misconduct & Title IX Coordinator Lita M. Pener.
A bias incident is any conduct, speech, or expression, motivated in whole or in part by bias or prejudice meant to intimidate, demean, mock, degrade, marginalize, or threaten individuals or groups based on that individual or group's actual or perceived identities.
Some examples of bias incidents are using racial slurs, creating derogatory images, mocking someone's cultural practice, or displaying hateful symbols, whereas discrimination and harassment are the unfair treatment or denial of opportunities based on protected characteristics. Bias incidents don’t always rise to the level of discrimination or harassment, but discrimination and harassment are always motivated by bias.
If you have experienced, witnessed, or been made aware of a bias incident, you can submit a report to alert the university. Reporting an incident allows IU to support those impacted and take steps to prevent future incidents.
Romantic or sexual relationships between students and faculty or staff who have any responsibility for the student's education or experiences are prohibited, regardless of consent or apparent consent. IU aims to ensure that all students avoid situations where power differences or conflicts of interest could cause problems or seem unfair.
