Relevant Excerpt

Harassment is a form of discrimination. It is generally defined as unwelcome conduct, on or off campus, that is based on Protected Characteristic, that (1) is subjectively and objectively offensive, (2) is severe or pervasive, and (3) has the purpose or effect of unreasonably interfering with an individual’s work or educational performance and creating an abusive, hostile or intimidating environment for work or learning. Whether particular conduct constitutes harassment often depends on the totality of the circumstances.
