Confidentiality
If you report an incident of sexual harassment, or ask for help on a question of sexual harassment, you are entitled to confidentiality within certain limits.
When an investigation is conducted, those involved will need to be interviewed. Confidentiality will be protected where possible. Some people may "need to know." In such cases these people will be asked to keep matters confidential where possible.
If the issue later becomes a lawsuit, any request for confidentiality may not be able to be honored at that future time if personnel or student files are demanded, or if employees are interviewed by attorneys. Otherwise, access to your files on the issue can and should be limited to a "need to know" basis.
