Alice Ortiz Montalvo Eng.135 AA Science , Devry University week #3 I chose this so that I could talk about how crucial it is to exercise caution in situations like sexual harassment. I also want to raise the importance of everyone being attentive to avoid situations like these. A form of sex-based discrimination is sexual harassment.

On February 15, 2006, the parties filed a Consent Decree with the court, in which they stipulated that the District would: refrain from any action that discriminated against any student in the administration of educational benefits and services based on that student's sex; react quickly and appropriately to claims of sexual harassment and discrimination; and avoid from retaliating against any learner or staff because that student or employee participated in the complaint.
