All members of the University Community may use this procedure.
For the purpose of this policy, the University Community includes,
but is not limited to, all faculty, administrators, staff
(including student workers), students, alumni, interns, members of
the Board of Trustees, and members of University-sponsored advisory
committees. Visitors to the University, vendors and
service-providers also may be subject to this policy.
Employment at Will
This complaint procedure is intended to provide for the prompt and
equitable resolution of student and employee complaints alleging
discrimination and sexual harassment. It is not intended to create,
and does not create, an employment contract or a guarantee of
continued employment for any employee. Therefore, the University is
free to discharge at-will employees at any time for any reason,
just as an employee may resign at any time for any reason.
Furthermore, the University may amend or rescind any of the
provisions of this policy and the complaint procedure form time to
time in its sole discretion.
