7. Harassment Policy
St. Louis University High believes in the inviolability and integrity of all
persons: that we are created in God's image and are of inestimable value. For
these reasons, any form of harassment is completely contrary to this belief. All
students and employees of SLUH are forbidden from engaging in any behavior
of this nature which is directed at any member of the SLUH community-adult,
adolescent, or child. This policy also extends to any visitor or guest to the
SLUH campus. The school will treat allegations of harassment seriously and
will review and investigate such allegations in a prompt, confidential, and
thorough manner.
A charge of harassment shall not, in and of itself, create the presumption of
wrongdoing. However, substantiated acts of harassment may result in
disciplinary action up to and including dismissal. Students found to have filed
false and frivolous charges will also be subject to disciplinary action, up to and
including dismissal.
Harassment occurs when an individual is subjected to treatment or to a school
environment which is hostile or intimidating because of the individual's race,
creed, color, national origin, disability, age, religion, sex or sexual orientation.
Harassment can occur any time during school or during school-related
activities. It includes, but is not limited to, any or all of the following:
a. Verbal Harassment-Inappropriate, derogatory comments and jokes;
threatening words spoken to another person.
b. Physical Harassment-Unwanted physical touching, contact, assault,
deliberate impeding or blocking movements, or any intimidating
interference with normal work or movement.
c. Visual Harassment-Derogatory, demeaning or inflammatory
posters, cartoons, written words, drawings, gestures, clothing, etc.
d. Sexual Harassment-Includes unwelcome sexual advances, requests
for sexual advances, requests for sexual favors, and other verbal or
physical conduct of a sexual nature.
