The seriousness of revenge

I think this policy has not shed light on the seriousness of revenge or the retaliation from the person accused. I think all the respondents [should] be informed of the university's position regarding the seriousness of any allegations of revenge against the person who got hurt, a witness, or other involved.

Recommendations

  • If no such statement exists, encourage development of an official statement prohibiting and clearly outlining consequences for retaliation against complainants. Highlight this statement in information and awareness materials and sessions.
