Relevant Excerpt

Hostile Environment Harassment: unwelcome sex-based conduct, that based on the totality of the circumstances, is subjectively and objectively offensive, and is so severe or pervasive, that it limits or denies a person’s ability to participate in or benefit from NMU’s education program or activity

NMU reserves the right to address offensive conduct and/or harassment that (1) does not rise to the level of creating a hostile environment, or (2) that is of a generic nature and not based on a protected characteristic. Addressing such conduct will not result in the imposition of discipline under NMU Policy, but may be addressed through respectful conversation, remedial actions, education, effective or other Informal Resolution mechanisms.
